Scientific paper

We discuss the ultimate limits posed by atmospheric fluctuations to observations of cosmic background anisotropies (CBAs) in ground-based and balloon-borne experiments both in the radio and millimetric regions. We present correlation techniques useful in separating CBAs from atmospheric fluctuations. An experimental procedure is discussed for testing a site in view of possible CBA observations. Four sites with altitudes ranging from 0 up to 3.5 km have been tested.
