The paper is devoted to explore the analogy between the weak limits and the ensemble averages. The KdV and compressible flow equations are analyzed at the continuous and semidiscrete levels. It is found that (1) The coexistence of smooth and oscillatory regions in space-time of their solutions bear a resemblance to intermittent turbulence. (2) The Whitham equations and their generalizations can serve as a model for equations governing ensemble averages of turbulent flows. On the other hand, there are major differences between dispersive and turbulent flows. The dispersive flows studied here have oscillations on a single scale, whereas turbulent flows contain a hierarchy of scales, the interaction of these scales is at the center of the problem of describing turbulence. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0869.00036].
