This book is intended to serve as an introduction to the
multidisciplinary ?eld of anomalous diffusion in complex systems
such as turbulent plasma, convective rolls, zonal ?ow systems,
stochastic magnetic ?elds, etc. In spite of its great importance,
turbulent transport has received comparatively little treatment in
published mo- graphs. This book attempts a comprehensive
description of the scaling approach to turbulent diffusion. From
the methodological point of view, the book focuses on the general
use of correlation estimates, quasilinear equations, and continuous
time random walk - proach. I provide a detailed structure of some
derivations when they may be useful for more general purposes.
Correlation methods are ?exible tools to obtain tra- port scalings
that give priority to the richness of ingredients in a physical pr-
lem. The mathematical description developed here is not meant to
provide a set of "recipes" for hydrodynamical turbulence or plasma
turbulence; rather, it serves to develop the reader's physical
intuition and understanding of the correlation mec- nisms involved.
