and the Bohm scaling of plasma confinement might be explained on the basis of profile self-regulation in the framework of the [[Self-Organised Criticality]] paradigm. This paradigm predicts that transport is regulated by avalanches, which would generate self-similar behaviour in space and time of the turbulent data.
