TurbuStat includes implementations of fourteen methods for recovering turbulent properties from observational data. Additional features of the software include: distance metrics for comparing two data sets; a segmented linear model for fitting lines with a break-point; a two-dimensional elliptical power-law model; multi-core fast-fourier-transform support; a suite for producing simulated observations of fractional Brownian Motion fields, including two-dimensional images and optically-thin HI data cubes; and functions for creating realistic world coordinate system information for synthetic observations. This paper summarizes the TurbuStat package and provides representative examples using several different methods. TurbuStat is an open-source package and we welcome community feedback and contributions.","url_abs":"http://arxiv.org/abs/1904.10484v2","url_pdf":"http://arxiv.org/pdf/1904.10484v2.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"turbustat-turbulence-statistics-in-python","repo_url":"https://github.com/Astroua/TurbuStat","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
