← ScienceWhich outcome from LIDAR arises with atmospheric turbulence?
A)Beam steering deteriorates measurements✓
B)Increased signal-to-noise ratio occurs
C)Wavelength shifts distort the data
D)Faster pulse rates improve resolution
💡 Explanation
Atmospheric turbulence causes refractive index fluctuations and random beam deflection; therefore beam steering deteriorates altitude estimations, because the angle of arrival wanders, rather than phase shifts changing wavelengths.
