Title

Turbulence and conservation laws

Abstract

I will talk about the crucial role of conservation laws in turbulence. The talk consists of three parts: 1. What is the problem of turbulence? Why is it important? Why is it a challenge? 2. The conservation laws determine the main featutres of turbulence. 3. In the last part I will present my new results explaining the widely observed phenomenon of the formations of zonal jets in the turbulence of the ocean and atmosphere.
