| Abstract: | The intensity and distribution of optical turbulence are important parameters to evaluate an observing station. A modeling method to obtain n atmospheric optical turbulence parameters, including the C2n pro?le, coherent length, coherent time, seeing, isoplanatic angle, and scintillation index by using meteorological parameters are presented. The accomplishment of this method, the con?guration of the WRF model (Weather Research and Forecasting Model), and the veri?cation of calculated results are introduced. The reliability of the method is con?rmed preliminarily by comparing the calculated results with the DIMM (Differential Image Motion Monitor) measurements. |
