According to the work plan for the RSF project, during 2016 measurements were taken in all seasons of the year: February, April, May, August and October. With the use of the whole set of equipment of the stand on the BSVT, the task was set to work out methods for recording and correcting the distortions of the phase of optical radiation passing through a layer of turbulent atmosphere. Complex on-site meteorological observations were organized and conducted at the site of the BSVT. Observations were carried out with the aim of developing and improving the local computational model of turbulent characteristics in the entire thickness of the active atmosphere in the "optical turbulence" range, including the surface layer. As the initial meteorological information for calculations, the model uses two-level data of pulsating observations of temperature and wind speed at the BSVT site, as well as current NCEP/NCAR archival data for the period from 1948 to 2015.
