Turbulence of dispersive nonlinear waves transfers energy from a long spatial scale, where a driving force is applied, to a short viscous scale. In many physical systems, the wave amplitude is almost everywhere small, while strongly nonlinear structures with high amplitudes emerge intermittently. Our study of these coherent structures in nonequilibrium systems is based on a simple statistical analysis of a wide class of Hamiltonian wave equations. The formation of coherent structures depends critically on the thermodynamic parameters of the low-amplitude waves, and on the frequency of coherent structures.
