The effective natural transport of seeds in turbulent atmospheric flows is found across a myriad of shapes and sizes. However, to develop a sensitive passive sensor required for large-scale ( in situ ) flow tracking measurements, systems suffer from inertial lag due to the increased size and mass ne...
