Sea Monkeys Show Scientists How to Rewrite a Rule of Turbulence

Automated excerpt

Researchers have long thought that in a turbulent system like a current of water, energy flows in only one direction, from larger scales to smaller ones, or vice versa, depending on the system’s dimensions. In such a system, energy moves between size scales. But his work, like Richardson’s, mainly focused on three-dimensional systems in which energy flows from large features to small ones.
