Measurements of the phase structure function of a laser beam propagated through the turbulent atmosphere along two different paths are reported. The first path was chosen in an urban zone, the second one was along a flat and quiet region. A comparison of the results with the theoretical predictions of Tatarsky and Lutomirsky and Yura is made. A discussion of the range of validity of the theoretical treatments is presented.
