Abstract
At high Reynolds number the fluid velocity is exponentially sensitive to perturbations of the problem data. This sensitivity, however, is not uniform. The large structures (large eddies) evolve deterministically and are thus not sensitive [BFG02]. The small eddies are sensitive because they have a random character.
