1. An atmospheric turbulence detection method, comprising:
providing a temperature difference measuring device, wherein the temperature difference measuring device comprises a single thermocouple element with two sensing probes, there is an ambient distance between the two sensing probes of the thermocouple element, and the ambient distance is between 1 and 2 meters;
placing the temperature difference measuring device in an atmospheric environment, wherein the thermocouple element generates an electromotive force by a temperature difference between the two sensing probes of the thermocouple element; and
analyzing the electromotive force, wherein the electromotive force is converted into an ambient temperature difference of an environment where the two sensing probes of the thermocouple element are located, an atmospheric refractive index structure constant is calculated according to the ambient temperature difference and the ambient distance, and a value of the atmospheric refractive index structure constant corresponds to an ambient disturbance of an atmospheric turbulence.
