Scientific paper

We report preliminary results from Near-Ground optical turbulence measurements carried out at Cerro Las Campanas, the future site of the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT), using MooSci (Moon Scintillomenter), DIMM (Differential Image Motion Monitor) and MASS (Multiple Aperture Scintillation Sensor), focusing on the effects above the future GMT enclosure. This campaign will continue with future observations of the NGL turbulence in order to better model the adaptive optics performance and aid in the design of the GMT AO instrumentation
