The CTRW model provides a mathematical framework for handling non-diffusive transport, but it does not explain why such non-diffusive transport should arise: answering the latter requires detailed computer simulations of turbulence and experimental observations.

However, even without fully understanding the origin of the non-diffusive behaviour, it is possible to construct models based on these ideas, and see whether these models fare better in predicting the global transport properties of plasmas then the standard diffusive models.
