General Theory of Light Propagation and Imaging Through the Atmosphere [E-Book] / by T. Stewart McKechnie.
This 2nd edition lays out an updated version of the general theory of light propagation and imaging through Earth's turbulent atmosphere initially developed in the late '70s and '80s, with additional applications in the areas of laser communications and high-energy laser beam propagat...
