Abstract
Here we typically consider a medium of independent particles, in which the medium, q(x̂), changes by a large magnitude in space so that the wave is seriously affected by every fluctuation of the medium, locally, in contrast to the case of turbulent air, in which the wave is negligibly affected by the medium fluctuation for the propagation over a distance of the order of the medium correlation distance.
