Part of the book series: Nonlinear Physical Science ((NPS))

Abstract

In this chapter, we describe some solutions of the Burgers equation for single-scale fields, discuss properties of solutions to the Burgers equation for multi-scale fields, which, in one way or another, help to understand laws of evolution of noise fields.
