What is Decoupling of Eulerian and Lagrangia varables in Lagrangian velocity correlations about?

The motion of a particle carried by a liquid is described by the differential equation equating the velocity of the particle at time t to the the Eulerian velocity field at time t and at the location of the particle at that time. Assuming the velocity field to be random with a stationary, isotropic, translational invariant, zero mean distribution, the Lagrangian velocity correlation of the particle can be expressed in terms of the Eulerian correlations and the characteristic function of the probability distribution of the end point of the trajectory at time t, where the particle is taken to be at the origin at time 0. This is a result of a decoupling, which is exact to leading order in the volume of the system.
