Global quantum communication based on atmospheric free-space channels is a rapidly developing and growing research area. In this contribution, we address the question of how fluctuating losses in such channels affect continuous-variable entanglement distribution and quantum state teleportation. We perform a rigorous analysis of the quantum states after passing through the turbulent atmosphere and study Gaussian and non-Gaussian entanglement. We identify optimal strategies for the transmission of entangled states, and we show that atmospheric channels differ essentially from constant-loss scenarios. Eventually, we propose strategies for the successful quantum-state teleportation through free-space channels.
