Abstract
We highlight recent results gained by a method to approximately solve the Navier-Stokes equation for high Reynolds numbers. Within this appr oximation, intermittency corrections are found to be scale dependent, large in the viscous subrange, moderate in the nonuniversal stirring s ubrange but, surprisingly enough, extremely small if not zero in the i nertial subrange.
