The space-uniform amplitude envelope of the Ion Temperature Gradient driven turbulence is unstable to small perturbations and evolves to nonuniform, soliton-like modulated profiles. The induced poloidal asymmetry of the transport fluxes can generate spontaneous poloidal spin-up of the tokamak plasma.
