Abstract

The definition of the inner scale for atmospheric turbulence is given. Methods of measuring inner scale are discussed and typical values are given. Innerscale effects on irra-diance covariance and log-amplitude covariance are discussed for both weak and strong scintillation. The covariance width is limited by the inner scale for saturated scintillation.
