Abstract
In many multicomponent flows, the variability that justifies the use of an averaging process to make predictions is manifested in a particular realization as rapid variations in space or time. For example, a time trace of some field may show large fluctuations due to the passing of dispersed units in a fluid, or a photograph may show many similar units within a distance which is small compared to the size of the flow domain.
