Abstract
Research programs are discussed that concern the nature and causes of clear-air turbulence; the practical identification of turbulent regions by computer analysis of ordinary radiosonde measurements of winds, temperature, and pressure; the use of satellite photographs of clouds in turbulence analysis; determination of the climatology of clear-air turbulence; and possible detection of layers that contain turbulence by means of lidar observations.
