Flow Intermittency, Dispersion, and Correlated Continuous Time Random Walks in Porous Media

We study the intermittency of fluid velocities in porous media and its relation to anomalous dispersion. Lagrangian velocities measured at equidistant points along streamlines are shown to form a spatial Markov process. As a consequence of this remarkable property, the dispersion of fluid particles...
