Abstract
Kinematic simulations are non-Markovian Lagrangian models of dispersio n that incorporate turbulentlike flow structure. We investigate the co nditions for two-particle dispersion to be local in a turbulentlike fl ow, and the dependence of the Richardson constant G(Delta) on the topo logy of individual realizations of the flow.
