The development of an eye-safe, airborne LIDAR that exploits the decorrelation of the heterodyne signal to detect clear air turbulence is reported. A one watt average power transmitter is capable of detecting clear air turbulence to over 20 km is subvisual cirrus (an environment highly correlated with instabilities of sratified shear layers). In the absence of subvisual cirrus, a 4 km detection range is maintained. A table depicting the warning time in seconds with respect to the aircraft speed and instrument range (in kilometers) is presented.
