Which outcome from LIDAR arises with atmospheric turbulence?

A)Beam steering deteriorates measurements
B)Increased signal-to-noise ratio occurs
C)Wavelength shifts distort the data
D)Faster pulse rates improve resolution

💡 Explanation

Atmospheric turbulence causes refractive index fluctuations and random beam deflection; therefore beam steering deteriorates altitude estimations, because the angle of arrival wanders, rather than phase shifts changing wavelengths.
