In the study of turbulence, intermittency is a measure of how much Kolmogorov's theory of 1941 deviates from experiments. It is quantified with the flatness of the velocity of the fluid, usually based on structure functions in the physical…

Rotating turbulence is commonly known for being dominated by geostrophic vortices that are invariant along the rotation axis and undergo inverse cascade. Yet, it has recently been shown to sustain fully three-dimensional states with a…
