We generate random Gaussian turbulent velocity fields with a Kolmogorov
spectrum and use these to obtain synthetic line-of-sight velocity profiles. The
profiles are found to be similar to line profiles observed in molecular clouds.
We suggest methods for analysing measured line profiles to test whether they
might arise from Gaussian Kolmogorov turbulence.
