Abstract: We study the influence of atmospheric seeing due to terrestrial atmospheric turbulence on cloud model parameters obtained from Hα observations with Beckers’ cloud model. The analysis indicates that atmospheric seeing does not affect the velocity determination, but does influence significantly the determination of the Doppler width when velocity gradients are present, and hence, the determination of the temperature, while the optical thickness and source function are also quantitatively affected, especially for high values of atmospheric seeing.
