• The effect of the spectrum of the radial wave number of zonal flows on zonal flow generation is theoretically investigated using the Hasegawa-Mima turbulence model by representing the spectrum by means of two monochromatic waves. Based on this method, we explored a ten-wave coupling model of modulational instability. We found that the zonal flow generation is qualitatively different in cases with and without such a spectral effect, exhibiting the enhancement of the growth rate. This originates from the coupling property of the new zonal flow eigenmode equation system. We refer to this state as a coupled zonal flows eigenmode, which leads to a spatial modulation of zonal flows affected by the turbulence structure.
