Aging of droplet size distribution in stratocumulus clouds: regimes of droplet size distribution evolution [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and PhysicsThe climatic impact of maritime stratocumulus clouds depends on the evolution of their droplet size distribution (DSD), yet the mechanisms controlling their variability during evaporation remain poorly constrained.

Copepod manipulation of oil droplet size distribution [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2019 AbstractOil spills are one of the most dangerous sources of pollution in aquatic ecosystems. Owing to their pivotal position in the food web, pelagic copepods can provide crucial intermediary transferring oil between trophic levels. In this study we show that the calanoidParacartia granican actively modify the size-spectrum of oil droplets.

Size distribution theory for jumping-droplet condensation [PDF]
Applied Physics Letters, 2019 Jumping-droplet condensation is promising for various applications where the droplet size distribution plays a key role in the overall system performance. Despite being extensively studied in recent works, inconsistencies existed in previous size distribution models as the droplet growth and removal mechanisms were often not properly described.
