Abstract:

Some measurements of the intensity fluctuations of a narrow diverging laser beam in snowfall are presented. It is shown that the intensity fluctuations first increase, then saturate, and thereupon decrease with increase of the snowfall optical thickness. The fluctuations also increase with increase of the maximum size of snowflakes.
