Kelvin-Helmholtz instability in an ultrathin air film causes drop splashing on smooth surfaces.

abstract：:Many nearshore fish and invertebrate populations are overexploited even when apparently coherent management structures are in place. One potential cause of mismanagement may be a poor understanding and accounting of stochasticity, particularly for stock recruitment. Many of the fishes and invertebrates that comprise n...
