CAT Full Form

(Clear Air Turbulence)

Clear Air Turbulence (CAT) is the turbulent movement of air masses in the absence of any visual cues such as clouds, and is caused when bodies of air moving at widely different speeds meet. CAT can be hazardous to the comfort, and even safety, of air travel. Clear air turbulence is usually impossible to detect with the naked eye and very difficult to detect with conventional radar, with the result that it is difficult for aircraft pilots to detect and avoid it. However, it can be remotely detected with instruments that can measure turbulence with optical techniques, such as scintillometers or Doppler LIDARs.
