Idealized and realistic large-eddy simulations of optical turbulence (Cn2)
Abstract - S. Basu, Victor Kulikov
We will first discuss the development of Cn2 parameterizations based on tuning-free large-eddy simulations (LES). Then, we will demonstrate the strength of a coupled mesoscale-LES modeling framework in capturing Cn2 evolutions from recent field campaigns.@en

Impact of strong refractive index gradients on laser beam propagation through deep turbulence
Atmospheric modeling shows that strong refractive index gradients can appear in the surface layer during certain periods of the diurnal cycle. These gradients and associated turbulence can significantly impact laser beam propagation.@en
