... for younger age classes. Aquarius remigis Capillary waves Dynamic surfaces Bubbles Surface roughness Smooth water surfaces are rare in nature given the prevalence of diverse environmental factors (e.g. wind, internal flows) causing deformation, even at small shear stresses. Rough aquatic...

... model of insect flight on air–water fluid interfaces, in the context of observations on waterlily beetles, uncovers a complex interplay of aerodynamics, biomechanics and capillary forces. Interfacial flight Biomechanics Capillary waves Capillary–gravity wave drag Chaos Insects...
