Measurements and Modeling of Optical Turbulence in the Coastal Environment

Measurements and Modeling of Optical Turbulence in the Coastal Environment

The goal of this study was to characterize optical turbulence in the near-coastal environment. Measurements to obtain the refractive index structure parameter and other meteorological data were taken over the course of a month along the shore of Monterey Bay. The results were compared to a new versi...
