Measurements and analysis of large-scale turbulent irregularities in the atmosphere are reported. Results were obtained from precision measurement of atmospheric temperature fluctuations at 24 and 70 feet above ground for a variety of wind velocities at the Mount Wilson Observatory. Measurements were made as wind blew air past detectors, at frequencies of 0.01-10 Hz, corresponding to distances in the atmosphere between about 1 and 250 m. Analysis shows that large-scale turbulences fit the Greenwood-Tarazano model well, and notably better than the von Karman model of turbulence.
