The universality in turbulence are studied in this paper. In the previous paper, we succeeded in studying the system described by the Kuramoto-Sivashinsky equation statistical mechanically. In this paper, it is shown that the turbulence described by the two-dimensional coupled map lattices has di er

β¦ Synopsis
We review some ideas about the physics of small-scale turbulent statistics, focusing on the scaling behavior of anisotropic uctuations. We present results from direct numerical simulations of three-dimensional homogeneous, anisotropically forced, turbulent systems: the Rayleigh-BΓ enard system, the random-Kolmogorov-ow, and a third ow with constant anisotropic energy spectrum at low wave numbers. A comparison of the anisotropic scaling properties displays good similarity among these very di erent ows. Our ΓΏndings support the conclusion that scaling exponents of anisotropic uctuations are universal, i.e., independent of the forcing mechanism sustaining turbulence.

## Abstract A study is made of several cases of highβlevel turbulence in which the intensity varied with the direction of flight of the aircraft. The direction of maximum turbulence is found to coincide fairly well with the direction of the contour lines. A theory is developed which attributes this
