Abstract
Sonic anemometers have been used extensively to measure virtual temperature fluctuations associated with turbulence and thereby determine the temperature structure function parameter. While it is common to utilize the temperature power spectrum in such an analysis, it is similarly possible to use a structure function based approach. In this work, we consider the details involved and benefits/disadvantages of processing by each method.
