DOI: 10.1093/mnras/staa3162
Abstract: We introduce a polydisperse version of the streaming instability, where the dust component is treated as a continuum of sizes. We show that its behaviour is remarkably different from the monodisperse streaming instability. We focus… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/2041-210x.13202
Abstract: Seed or samara terminal velocity is a key trait affecting the dispersal potential of wind‐dispersed plants. However, this trait is often represented in dispersal models by a single mean value per species. This is despite… read more here.
