I would go with an isosurface - it's fairly easy to shape isosurfaces around
a particular point, and to make turbulence, etc. dependant on that
particular point.

What you want is a function that peaks suddenly in y when it reaches a
particular point of x,z, and is relatively flat outside that region.

Turbulence decreases in a similiar, although gentler, way.

I'll have a play and try and post a demo later on...

By no means take this as gospel in terms of the most sensible approach...
