Caption: Figure 1.

Size distribution and dust-to-gas ratio (ϵ) at time t = 1 Myr for a twopoppy simulation with variable v_frag and α_t = 10⁻³. The size limits imposed by fragmentation and drift are shown with dashed and dotted lines in the upper panel. The location of the ice line is marked with blue triangles.
