New modelling shows unsteady ocean waves can transport particles far from their source. The physics also matters for how aerosols move through environments.

Wave‑driven transport shows how spatiotemporal flow changes move particles over distance. In air, similar physics underlies aerosol spread, key for airborne pathogens.
