Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 024502 (2005) [4 pages]Flow Reversal in a Simple Dynamical Model of TurbulenceReceived 25 October 2004; published 5 July 2005 In this Letter, we study a simple hydrodynamical model showing abrupt flow reversals at random times. For a suitable range of parameters, we show that the dynamics of flow reversal is accurately described by stochastic differential equations, where the noise represents the effect of turbulence. © 2005 The American Physical Society URL:
