Which mechanism reduces signal clarity when atmospheric turbulence impacts radio telescopes?

💡 Explanation

Atmospheric turbulence creates variations in the refractive index; this causes wavefront distortion by unevenly slowing sections of the incoming waves. Because of uneven delay, the radio waves do NOT combine coherently causing signal blurring therefore degrades clarity of incoming signal rather than signal amplification.
