Abstract
An instrumented jet aircraft has been used to probe regions of the clear atmosphere where an enhancement of radiation backscattered from a ground‐based ruby laser was observed. In twenty‐seven cases, established over five nights of observation, the aircraft encountered light turbulence in clear air in regions of enhanced backscattering.Keywords
