We construct semi-integral curves which bound the projections of the global attractors of the 3D NS-$\alpha$ and 3D Leray-$\alpha$ sub-grid scale turbulence models in the plane spanned by their energy and enstrophy. We note the dependence of these bounds on the filter width parameter $\alpha$, and determine subregions where each quantity, energy and enstrophy, must decrease, while isolating one which is recurrent.
Keywords: NS-$\alpha$ turbulence model, Leray-$\alpha$ turbulence model, enstrophy., Global attractor, energy.
