It is proposed that a macroscopic theory of propagation and scattering of light through random media can be functional for the dye liquid flowing media in the microscopic levels too, with modest approximations. Maxwell’s equation for a random refractive index medium is approximated and solved for the electric field. An analytical expression for the spectral intensity of the field scattered by the refractive index fluctuations inside a medium has been derived which was valid within the first Born approximation. Far field spectral intensity variation of the radiation propagating through the liquid medium is a consequence of variation in correlation function of the refractive index inhomogeneities. The strength of radiation scattered in a particular direction depends on the spatial correlation function of the refractive index fluctuations of the medium. An attempt is made to explain some of the experimentally observed spectral intensity variations, particularly dye emission propagation through liquid flowing medium, in the presence of thermal and flow field.

Wave theoretical analysis of scalar, time‐harmonic waves propagating in a constant density medium with isotropic, random velocity fluctuations and being scattered mainly in the forward direction yields a simple and robust procedure that combines the logarithm of the mean wave amplitude with the mean logarithm of the wave amplitude to perform a separation of scattering attenuation and absorption effects. Finite‐difference simulations of wave propagation in 2-D random media with a Voigt‐body rheology illustrate the evolution of wave field fluctuations and demonstrate that the separation procedure works for a wide range of seismic albedos. In the case of no absorption, the logarithms of seismic amplitudes will have a nonlinear dependence on the travel distance if the wavefield fluctuations are small compared to the amplitude of the coherent field. If these fluctuations are large, the logarithms of seismic amplitudes will tend to constant levels independent of the travel distance. In the case of random viscoacoustic media and at propagation distances larger than the inverse of the scattering coefficient of the coherent field, and apart from geometrical spreading, the overall amplitude decrease will be predominated by absorption, even if the absorption coefficient is one order smaller than the scattering coefficient of the coherent field.
