Abstract

This overview summarizes progress made to date on the Specially Promoted Research Project “Structure Formation and Selection Rule in Turbulent Plasmas.” Keys for the progress of the project are a change of view, from one that is linear, local, and deterministic to one that is nonlinear, nonlocal, and statistical, and the integration of theory, simulation, and experiment.
