Abstract

A substantial amount of progress has been made in the past three years in understanding the small scale physics of thermal blooming, and in particular, in understanding the interaction of thermal blooming with atmospheric turbulence. The authors present a brief review of some of the theoretical aspects of small scale thermal blooming.
