Persistent accelerations disentangle Lagrangian turbulence

Particles in turbulence, as encountered in the atmosphere or the oceans, experience strongly varying local flow conditions over time. Bentkamp et al. show that this statistical complexity can be broken down into simpler parts, allowing for insights into the space-time structure of turbulent flows.
