<p>
We report on current theoretical understanding of the characteristics of self-generated zonal flows as observed in nonlinear gyrokinetic simulations of toroidal ITG turbulence [Science <b>281</b>, 1835 (1998)], and discuss various possibilities for experimental measurements of signature of zonal flows.
