Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In this Special Issue, we plan to present the current state of analytical, numerical, and experimental advances in atmospheric turbulence.
Conducting research in this field is important for solving problems of atmospheric optics, providing high-quality ground-based observations using optoelectronic systems, predicting "optical weather" and other tasks related to obtaining new knowledge about the nature of this phenomenon.
Articles in the following scientific fields are invited for publication:
- Modeling of atmospheric turbulence to problems of astronomy, vision systems, energy transfer and communication;
- Methods for reconstruction of turbulence and wind speed profiles;
- Manifestations of the non-Kolmogorov turbulence;
- Express-methods of diagnostics of atmospheric turbulence;
- Distribution of mesospheric metal atoms;
- Atmospheric turbulence in terahertz and X-ray problems.
Progress in these issues will largely be determined by the creation of new optical research methods. Equally important is the introduction of this knowledge into applied statistical models and the development of new computational methods for accounting for the impact of turbulence in various spheres of human activity. This will help to identify knowledge gaps and facilitate research in this field.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Atmosphere is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2000 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
