Both papers use a continuum description of fluctuations at the perimeter of an isolated cluster to determine its diffusion. For significant edge hopping, they predict a transition from EC- to PD- to TD-dominated diffusion, for increasing size, S. However, lattice effects restrict the increase in evaporation relative to the continuum prediction, for small S, and thus inhibit EC. Furthermore, the presence of other clusters and steps could modify large S behavior.
