In this talk, we will look at the diffusive scaling limit of a class of
one-dimensional random walks in a random space-time environment. In the
scaling limit, this gives rise to a so-called stochastic flow of kernels as
introduced by Le Jan and Raimond and generalized by Howitt and Warren. We will
prove several new results about these stochastic flows of kernels by making
use of the theory of the Brownian web and net. This is joint work with R. Sun
and E. Schertzer.
