Abstract
The behavior of a passive particle in a flow that exhibits bifurcations in the transition to a turbulent regime is investigated. The flow considered is a variant of the Charney–Hasegawa–Mima equation. The scalar particle dynamics is considered for different regimes of the main flow. A regime of anomalous diffusion (hypodiffusion) is observed when the field has few harmonics whereas normal diffusion occurs in the strange attractor regime. The analysis of the singular orbit reveals the presence of traps and flights that control the transport.
