Two-Dimensional Turbulence in Plasmas and Fluids Research Workshop

This work contains expository overview articles and contributed papers from an interdisciplinary workshop held in the Institute of Advanced Studies of the Australian National University, which houses experiments using a rotating water tank for simulating geophysical flows and a helical axis stellarator, the H-1Heliac, for advanced plasma confinement experiments. The site of the workshop thus provided a natural meeting ground for theoreticians and experimentalists from both geophysical fluid dynamics and plasma physics to establish a dialogue on the underlying physics common to the two areas.
