A thin annular sheet of water is sandwiched between two concentric air streams. This airflow on either side of the water causes shearing and Kelvin-Helmholtz-type instabilities develop, causing the sinuous waves along the water surface. Periodic behavior of the sort observed here is frequently observed in fluid mechanical instabilities. #
