Converging approaches for modeling the dispersal of propagules in air and sea
Terrestrial plants seeds, spores and pollen are often dispersed by wind. Likewise, most eggs
and larvae of marine organisms are dispersed by oceanic currents. It was historically …

Dispersal of seeds by the tropical sea breeze
Given the dependence of most wind‐pollinated and wind‐dispersed species on low relative
humidity (RH) for abscission, and the minimization of RH in the early afternoon, there ought …

A theoretical framework for data analysis of wind dispersal of seeds and pollen
We compared a variety of models for the analysis of data on the wind dispersal of seeds and
pollen. Dispersal distances from a source depend upon such factors as settling velocity …

Marine population connectivity: reconciling large-scale dispersal and high self-retention
Predicting connectivity patterns in systems with fluid transport requires descriptions of the
spatial distribution of propagules. In contrast to research on terrestrial seed dispersal, where …
