From page 18...
... Finally, the fact that there is a vast range of practical applications of plasmas from plasma processing, to new radiation sources and accelerators, to fusion and global communications requires not just a qualitative but a quantitative understanding of the underlying plasma behavior. One particularly important and broad topic in theoretical and computational plasma science is the achievement of a deeper understanding of plasma turbulence and the associated transport that frequently results from it.
