Where and why alongshore variation in larval transport enables the establishment of introduced species

After introduction, many non-native marine species are dispersed planktonically. Secondary spread within the non-native range has been shown to prevent the establishment of the introduced species if the advection of larvae prevents sufficient return of larvae to maintain the population in the face of competition with native species. However, those studies have largely neglected the effects of…

Scientists map the microscopic roots of chaos in dusty plasma using supercomputer simulations

Research Matters Staff Writer(s) Jammu 17 Aug 2026 Researchers have achieved a breakthrough in understanding the chaotic world of turbulence by tracking the movement of millions of individual particles in a specialised state of matter known as dusty plasma.

  • Scientists map microscopic origins of turbulence in dusty plasma using supercomputer simulations.
  • Understanding dusty plasma turbulence could improve plasma containment in nuclear fusion reactors.
