Abstract: The Facific Enewetak Atoll Crater Evploration (PEACE) Freeram
425 eetablished te resolve a number cf questions for the Department of
Defense (DCD) abcut the geologic and material-praperties parameters of two
craters (FOA and OAK), formed by near-surface bursts af high-yiel
thermonuclear devices on the northern margir cf Enewetak Atoll,
Islands, in 1935. The muitidisciplinary studies conductec by the i!fS
collaboration with other aorgenizaticns during 19984 through 1967 wer
of a much larger research initiative by the DNA ta batter understand
dynamic properties cf strategic-scale nuclear bursts and the relevance if
the Pacific Praving G-ounde (FFG* craters to issu
