Physical and numerical modelling of particle settlement in a turbulent flow: implication for the settlement of algal propagules.
A fundamental stage in rocky-shore seaweed life history is the recruitment process involving external fertilisation and then settlement of the propagules on a suitable substrate. The ultimate step in this settlement stage is the crossing of the viscous sub-layer and attachment to the substrate. Gi...
