Maui3Cn2
MATLAB
Cn2 = Maui3Cn2(h)
Description

Maui 3 Turbulence profile as defined in standard literature. This is the most recent (vintage Feb 2003) model for propagation above Maui's Mt. Haleakala. It is considered more correct than the old AFGL AMOS model for matching median propagation quantities. Maui 3 has been designated the official Maui-site model for the Active Track program. Data-based profile values are defined for h > 3050 m. Ground level is h = 3038 m, and for numerical convenience we define Cn2 below 3050m to be equal to Cn2(3050m).
