摘要
Two-dimensional turbulence admits two different ranges: an inverse energy cascade at large scales and a cascade of enstrophy to the small scales. Here we show that two. ow structures govern the transfers of either enstrophy or energy. Vortical structures are responsible for the transfers of energy upscale while filamentary structures are responsible for the forward transfer of the enstrophy. Copyright (C) EPLA, 2007.
