Prior statistical knowledge of the atmospheric turbulence is essential for designing, optimizing and evaluating tomographic adaptive optics systems. We present the statistics of the vertical profiles of $C_N^2$ and the outer scale at Maunakea estimated using a Slope Detection And Ranging (SLODAR) method from on-sky telemetry taken by RAVEN, which is a MOAO demonstrator in the Subaru telescope. In our SLODAR method, the profiles are estimated by a fit of the theoretical auto- and cross-correlation of measurements from multiple Shack-Haltmann wavefront sensors to the observed correlations via the non-linear Levenberg-Marquardt Algorithm (LMA), and the analytic derivatives of the spatial phase structure function with respect to its parameters for the LMA are also developed. The estimated profile has the median total seeing of 0.460$^{primeprime}$ and large $C_N^2$ fraction of the ground layer of 54.3%. The $C_N^2$ profile has a good agreement with the result from literatures, except for the ground layer. The median value of the outer scale is 25.5m and the outer scale is larger at higher altitudes, and these trends of the outer scale are consistent with findings in literatures.

In this paper we report on the laboratory experiment we settled in the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory (SHAO) to investigate the pyramid wavefront sensor (WFS) ability to measure the differential piston on a sparse aperture. The ultimate goal is to
verify the ability of the pyramid WFS work in closed loop to perform the phasing of the primary mirrors of a sparse Fizeau imaging telescope. In the experiment we installed on the optical bench we performed various test checking the ability to flat the wave-front using a deformable mirror and to measure the signal of the differential piston on a two pupils setup. These steps represent the background from which we start to perform full closed loop operation on multiple apertures. These steps were also useful to characterize the achromatic double pyramids (double prisms) manufactured in the SHAO optical workshop.
We present long term site testing statistics obtained at Dome C, Antarctica with various experiments deployed within the Astroconcordia programme since 2003. We give values of integrated turbulence parameters in the visible at ground level and above
the surface layer, vertical profiles of the structure constant Cn2 and a statistics of the thickness of the turbulent surface layer.
We present laboratory experiments of surface wave turbulence excited by paddles in the deep water regime. The free surface is seeded with buoyant particles that are advected and dispersed by the flow. Positions and velocities of the floaters are meas
ured using particle tracking velocimetry. We study the statistics of velocity and acceleration of the particles, mean vertical displacements, single-particle horizontal dispersion, and the phenomenon of preferential concentration. Using a simple model together with the experimental data, we show that the time evolution of the particles has three characteristic processes that dominate the dynamics at different times: drag by surface waves at early times, trapping by horizontal eddies at intermediate times, and advection by a large-scale mean circulation at late times.
We present TurbuStat (v1.0): a Python package for computing turbulence statistics in spectral-line data cubes. TurbuStat includes implementations of fourteen methods for recovering turbulent properties from observational data. Additional features of
the software include: distance metrics for comparing two data sets; a segmented linear model for fitting lines with a break-point; a two-dimensional elliptical power-law model; multi-core fast-fourier-transform support; a suite for producing simulated observations of fractional Brownian Motion fields, including two-dimensional images and optically-thin HI data cubes; and functions for creating realistic world coordinate system information for synthetic observations. This paper summarizes the TurbuStat package and provides representative examples using several different methods. TurbuStat is an open-source package and we welcome community feedback and contributions.
Gravitational wave observatories have always been affected by tele-seismic earthquakes leading to a decrease in duty cycle and coincident observation time. In this analysis, we leverage the power of machine learning algorithms and archival seismic da
ta to predict the ground motion and the state of the gravitational wave interferometer during the event of an earthquake. We demonstrate improvement from a factor of 5 to a factor of 2.5 in scatter of the error in the predicted ground velocity over a previous model fitting based approach. The level of accuracy achieved with this scheme makes it possible to switch control configuration during periods of excessive ground motion thus preventing the interferometer from losing lock. To further assess the accuracy and utility of our approach, we use IRIS seismic network data and obtain similar levels of agreement between the estimates and the measured amplitudes. The performance indicates that such an archival or prediction scheme can be extended beyond the realm of gravitational wave detector sites for hazard-based early warning alerts.
