We find that such a flow can lead to an exponential growth of the passive scalar fluctuations. We calculate the growth rate at the fourth order in wave amplitudes and find it non-zero when either both solenoidal and potential components are present in the flow or there are potential waves with the same frequencies but different wavenumbers.4 pages, 1 figureChaotic Dynamicstext
