Mechanisms of the influence of flow shear on anomalous transport are considered: reduction of growth rate of linear instabilities, suppression of turbulent eddies, change in cross phase of fluctuating parameters. Different channels for formation of the radial electric field, E × B flow and scenarios of generation of the edge and internal transport barriers are discussed.
