The spectral transfer of passive scalars in a self‐similar state is studied by direct numerical simulations of stationary isotropic turbulence. At high wave numbers the dominant process is forward cascading local transfer as a result of nonlocal triadic interactions that couple together two similarly high wave‐number scalar modes by one low wave‐number velocity mode. This indicates that advection by the energy‐containing eddies transfers the scalar fluctuations towards smaller scales.
