Scientific paper

An evaluation is made of the technical choices pertinent to the selection of the ESO's Very Large Telescope site in northern Chile, in light of meteorological, acoustic radar, rawinsonde, microthermal sensor and optical seeing monitor data that will be collected in the coming years. Attention is given to large scale meteorological parameters, the features of the atmospheric boundary layer, the turbulence encountered in the 'ground layer' of the first 30 m above the ground, and the use of the path integral/differential Hartmann seeing monitor.
