Abstract
Theoretical and heuristic modelling methods are reviewed for studying turbu lence phenomena of fluids and plasmas. Emphasis is placed on understanding of effects on turbulence characteristics due to inhomogeneities of field an d plasma parameters. The similarity and dissimilarity between the methods f or fluids and plasmas are sought in order to shed light on the properties t hat are shared or not by fluid and plasma turbulence.
