Ultraviolet 'Light Detection and Ranging' (LIDAR) instrument
Researchers at the DLR Institute of Atmospheric Physics have developed a laser-based instrument to detect and predict 'clear air turbulence' (CAT) from a distance. Under a European joint project called DELICAT (Demonstration of LIDAR based Clear Air Turbulence detection) the new technology is currently being tested by the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and its project partners.
