During landing under calm wind and clear skies, what should be done to approach airspeed to avoid stalling due to turbulence?

In the context of landing under calm wind and clear skies, increasing the approach airspeed slightly above normal is important for several reasons. When pilots are aware of potential turbulence, even in seemingly calm conditions, having a slightly higher airspeed provides an additional margin of safety. This extra speed helps mitigate the risk of inadvertently stalling the aircraft if it encounters unexpected, small-scale turbulence, which can be caused by factors such as thermal activity or wind shear.

Maintaining approach airspeed at normal levels may be adequate for typical landings, but in less stable conditions—especially when transitioning from air to ground—having a buffer can be crucial for maintaining control and ensuring the aircraft can respond effectively to sudden changes in lift. Similarly, reducing airspeed below normal could significantly increase the risk of stalling, particularly when turbulence disrupts the aircraft's airflow. Therefore, adjusting the approach airspeed to a slightly higher value is a proactive measure to enhance safety during the landing phase.
