Abstract
- The article focuses on a study which aims at analyzing the effect of atmospheric water vapor in detecting turbulence based on the Thorpe method. It describes the Thorpe method in which potential temperature and density are sorted in ascending order. It concludes increase in turbulent faction of the troposphere during saturation of atmospheric water vapor.
