Seeing is possibly the most important parameter describing a ground-based astronomical observatory. Under conditions of good seeing, an aberration-free telescope will produce sharp and bright images. The astronomer can then explore the universe to greater depths than otherwise possible. In recent years, a considerable amount of theoretical and experimental seeing studies have been conducted. The action of the earth's atmosphere on the quality of astronomical observations is now understood in quite some detail, and it has also become possible to measure the prevailing seeing, without the use of large and very expensive telescopes. This is obviously of great interest in the search for new observatory sites.
