We investigate how the E × B shearing profile impacts the energy transport induced by the MHD mode in the edge of H-mode plasmas. By enhancing the outer layer (ψnor ≈ 0.9–1) shear, the growth rate spectrum γ(n) gets narrowed with the fastest growth rate having a lower toroidal mode number. In the nonlinear stage, the MHD fluctuations tend to reach a coherent, oscillating state, which is analogous to a quiescent(Q) H mode state with edge-harmonic-oscillations. By enhancing the inner layer (ψnor ≈ 0.7–0.8) shear, γ(n) shifts to lower n, and its width does not change much. In the nonlinear stage, the edge fluctuations tend to stay in an incoherent, oscillating state, which is analogous to a turbulent QH-mode state. We also explore the underlying physics of the results and show that they are closely related to the different cross-phase dynamics of the edge MHD fluctuations induced by the variation of the edge E × B shearing profile.
