open access: yesEarly Medieval Europe, Volume 32, Issue 3, Page 284-305, August 2024.
The history of the Heruli represents a historical conundrum. Because of the poor state of the sources, caution is required when analysing this subject. However, the peculiarity of the case encourages us to rethink the way we conceive of and describe migrations in Late Antiquity.

Gone with the waves: the role of sea currents as key dispersal mechanism for Mediterranean coastal and inland plant species

open access: yesPlant Biology, Volume 26, Issue 5, Page 832-841, August 2024.
We tested the ability to disperse by sea and found that thalassocorous plants may be more common than generally believed, as inland and, at shorter distances, endemic plants cannot be excluded. Abstract Thalassochory, the dispersal of propagules through marine currents, is a key long‐distance dispersal (LDD) mechanism with implications for global ...
