  • Abstract
    This paper investigates the mathematical description and modelling of atmospheric turbulence, as well as the restoration of images degraded by it. The effects on images are simulated on a computer as well as physically in the laboratory for a wide range of objects. These images are then also restored, with results presented throughout
