A statistical mechanics description is extended for a self-sustained inhomogeneous turbulence, including the effects of thermal fluctuations. Interchange mode in the presence of inhomogeneous magnetic field, which reveals a subcritically-excited strong turbulence, is considered as a collective mode, A Langevin equation is formulated for a test mode, in which the coherent interactions with thermal fluctuations are kept as a collisional drag and the incoherent ones are considered to be thermal noise: The coherent nonlinear interactions are kept as a renormalized turbulent drag, and the incoherent ones are considered to he a random self-noise. Both thermal and turbulent excitations are thus included. The solutions of stationary turbulent state are obtained, provided that both noises are statistically independent, The analysis for the fluctuation level; decorrelation rate, and the correlation functions clearly shows the connection between a mode which is excited by thermal fluctuations and the one being subcritically self-excited. The level is expressed as nonlinear functions (with hysteresis) of nonequilibrium parameter (gradient). A phase diagram is obtained in the gradient-temperature space. An application of the extended fluctuation-dissipation theorem for far non-equilibrium system is explicitly made and new statistical relations are presented.
