Project 31.1 - Microbarograph = W, A. Gustafson
The purpose of this project was to measure winds in ozone layer
of the atmosphere,
This was accomplished by measuring at several sites
the arrival times of the shock wave reflected from the ozone layer.
Four sites were operated:
Ujelang, Wotho, Rongerik, and Eniwetok.
At each site two stations were operated about one mile apart.
The diff-~
erence in arrival times gives the angle of incidence of the shock and
information from several stations may be combined to give the winds,

good shot records were obtained from all state
fons except Rongerik, which had high ambient wind noise.
However enough
directions are available for the Bikini shot to allow ozonosphere wind
and temperature resolution, but this has not yet been accomplished,
