Abstract
Abstract Work under this project was divided into three phases of field operations. The first and second phases of operation were performed in Colorado and were directed toward a study of the annual variations of winds and temperatures in the 30- to 60-kilometer region. The third phase of operation was performed in New Mexico, as part of Air Force Operation T-Day, and was directed toward a study of the diurnal variations of winds and temperatures in the 30- to 60-km region. Results of the second-phase Colorado work are discussed along with results of Operation T-Day. Results and conclusions of the first-phase Colorado work have been presented in an earlier paper and are only briefly discussed here. During the second-phase Colorado studies (31 October 1951 through 28 August 1952), approximately one measurement of high-altitude winds and temperatures was made per month. Operations were centered approximately at 39°N, 103°40′W (near Limon, Colorado), and extended radially about 200 km. This study was a conti...
