Back Probably because turbulence is built to affect velocity - he says, stating the obviuous ;). Or possibly that the force of the turbulence is proportional to the velocity, rather as drag would be.
One of my big beefs about particles is that there's no logic or information about what forces affect what properties of particles. In my book a force is something that affects acceleration - F=Ma - the acceleration percolating down through velocity and finally position. I couldn't say for sure but I'm guessing this may not always be the case.
