Query: Turbulence Statistics from Spectral Line Observations   Turbulence is a crucial component of dynamics of astrophysical fluids
dynamics, including those of ISM, clusters of galaxies and circumstellar
regions. Doppler shifted spectral lines provide a unique source of information
on turbulent velocities. We discuss Velocity-Channel Analysis (VCA) and its
offspring Velocity Coordinate Spectrum (VCS) that are based on the analytical
description of the spectral line statistics. Those techniques are well suited
for studies of supersonic turbulence. We stress that a great advantage of VCS
is that it does not necessary require good spatial resolution. Addressing the
studies of mildly supersonic and subsonic turbulence we discuss the criterion
that allows to determine whether Velocity Centroids are dominated by density or
velocity. We briefly discuss ways of going beyond power spectra by using of
higher order correlations as well as genus analysis. We outline the relation
between Spectral Correlation Functions and the statistics available through VCA
and VCS.
