Numerica] computations were made on an "M-220" electronic computer for determination of evolution of the cleared zone forming in a warm fog with a thickness of 100 m with seeding by monodisperae carbamide along a line near the upper boundury of the fog. It is shown that in a fog with a small liquid-water content (0.05 g/m3), with a low value of the turbulence coefficient (1 m2/sec) un- der condi::ions close to a calm (wind shear 0.01 sec'1) it is possible to obtain a clear%d zone with seeding of a s3ngle line. If the problem is to obta{n it in 10-15 minutea, it is moak effective to use particles with a radius 30-40 ~.m with discharges 200-400 kg/km. Preliminary computations made for greater wind aheara (0.05 sec-~) and ~he turbulence coefficient (5-10 m2/sec) show that for dense fogs with a liquid-water content greater than 0.1 g/m3 a clearing could not be obtained _ 2 ~ FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY ~ APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/09: CIA-RDP82-00850R000400030025-7 APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/09: CIA-RDP82-00850R000400030025-7 , FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY by aeeding of a aingle line with pulverized carbamide at the rate of 200-400 kg/ km.

I.] [Text] Using the spectral transmission fun~tions for water vapor, carbon dioxi.de ~ ar.d water for three models qf the atmosphere containing low stratiform clouds the author has computed the spectral gains and losses of long-wave radiation and in- vestigated their spectral and vertical distributions. It is shown that about �Oy of the radiation cooling of a cloud and the effective radiation from the upper boundary is formed in the interval of the transparency window 1.84-12.5 ~-m. This circumstance, in combination with the exponential character of transmission in the window, makes it possible to propose a aimple method for computing radiation characteristics when constructing numerical models of low clouds and fogs whic'n is close to the K. Ya. Kondrat'yev schematized spectrum method ar.d which makes it possible to avoid integration in the entire troposphere in each time interval. For narrow droplet spectra at the upper cloud boundary (or in a fog) during cool- ing aL~^~ 600 cm2/g; at the lower boundary during heating oG Lk^-1000 cm2/g. It was noted that the averaging of the absorption coefficients (or sections) for the IR spectrum with a Planck function as the weight considerably exaggerates the ab- sorptivity of water. Analytical estimatea of receipts were made by integration of ; the transfer equations. The following effect was discovered: in the atmosphere there are levels (^~1-2 km) at which the "heat pocket" .formed by the cloud has a maacimum "depth," that is, the total radiation receipt for_ the layer is maximum. This effect is intensified with an increase in atmospheric moisture content. Fig- ures 7, tables 3, references 21.

I.J [Text] Analytical expreasions are derived for the coefficients of attenuation, scattering and absorption of atmoapheric radiation by a polydisperse cloud medium in which the droplet spectrum is described by a gamma distribution. Use was made of the Van d~ Hulst formula for the attenuation effectiveness factor in the ap- proximation of "soft" particles and the K. S.

I. and Oleynik, R. V.] [Text] On the basis of data on radiation fluxee in clouds in the W spectral re- gion it was posaible to eatimate the times uf irradiation of an AgI aerosol dur- ing which the particles can receive an optimum irradiation dose for a maximum increase in their ice-forming activity. On the basis of an evaluation of the mean parameters of convective clouds (altitude of the lower boundary, altitude of the zero isotherm, mean velocities of the ascending fluxes) it was possible to com- pute the altitudes of the levels at which it is recommended that the aerosol be introduced in the modification effort. The authors give the temperature dependences for the specific yield of ice crys[als for aerosols obtained by the combustion of acetone solutions with different weight concentrations C: 1, 5, 20~. With a tem- perature increase the influence of irradi,ation decreases for all concentrations. With a decrease in the concentration of the solution the apecific yield of the ice crystals increases, which is probably asaociated with an increase in the numerical concentration of serosol particlea.

The effective velocities of vertical gusta ~Weffl in stratiform clouds did not exceed 3 msec'1, in zones of artificial crystallization 2 msec'1. Vertical guets with ~Weff~< 1 msec'1 in clouds were 95%, in crystallization zones 99%. The mean ~Weff~ values in clouds are 0.46 msec-1, in crystallization zones 0.40 msec'1. The maximum frequency of recurrence in clouds and zones is for vertical gusts measuring 60-90 m.

The mean frequency of recurrence of ver- tical gusts per uait distance in clouds was 5.95 laa'1, in the zones 3.61 km'1. The modal probability density of the mean square effective velocities of vertical ~g~s ~d Weff~ in clouds and zones falls in the gr~adation 0.26-0.50 msec'1. i'he probability density ~ Weff > 0�75 msec'1 in clouds is greater than in zones of ar- tificial crystallization. The maximum frequency of recurrence of the turbulence co- efficient (K), characterizing the level of vertical turbulent exchange in the tur- bulent sectors of the cloud and zone, falls in the gradation 20.1-30.0 m2�sec 1. Values K< 40 m2�sec-1 in clouds were 86y, in zones 91�d. The mean value K in clouds was 27.7 m2�sec-1~ in zones 25.6 m2~sec-1 The maximum frequency of re- currence of values of the turbulence coefficient (K~`), characterizing the mean level of vertical turbulent exchange in clouds, falls in the gradation 10.1-20.0 m2�sec-1, in the zones 0-10.0 mZ�sec-1. Values K*< 40 m2�sec-1 in clouds were , 93%, in zones 96%. The mean K* value in clouds is 20.5 m2�sec 1, in the zones 15.0 m2�sec 1. The maximum frequency of recurrence of the turbulence intermit- tence coefficient (Kin) in clouds falls in the gradation 0.61-0.80, in the zones 0.41-0.60. The mean Kin value in clouda was 0.60, in the zones 0.44. The de- gree of attenuation ~f vertical turbulent exchange in the zonea of artificial crystallization is dependent on meteorological conditions and cloud parameters. In zones of total scattering of clouds in individual cases all the effective velocity ; values for vertical guats were less than 0.2 m�sec'1. Figures 5, tables 7, refer- ~ ences 15.

N.J [Text] Data from the pluviometric network in the Experimental Meteorological Poly- gon of the Ukrainian Scientific Research Hydrometeorological Institute for July 1974 were used in computing the attenuation of radio waves in precipitation in the range 0.86-10 cm. Attenuation was determined in accordance with its mean month- ly duration. The influence of attenuation on the accuracy of radar measurement of the quantity of precipitation was evaluated. The distributions of errors in measur- ing the layer of precipitation during a rain caused by attenuation at wavelengths 3.2, 5.6 and 10 cm were obtained. The influence of attenuation on the accuracy of meagurement of the layer of precipitation during a month ia demonstrated. Figures 4, tables 4, references 10.

V.J [TextJ A rather simple method is proposed for the illumination of transparent spherical microparticles for the purpose of ineasuring their size. The essence = of the method is the irradiation of a microparticle by two light beams with a slight divergence, directed from the direction of the registry system objective, and the measurement of the distance between the luminescent points in the form of which the microparticle image is regiatered. For the purpose of obtaining the min- imum measurement error the angle between the irradiating light beams and the op- tical axis of the registry. system axis is computed in advance from the known re- fractive index of microparticle matter. It is shown that the total measurement error, without allowance for the error associated with the inaccuracy in pointing the registry system ob~ective on the microparticle, is not more than 2-3%.

P., Korshunov, V. A., Pashkin, Yu. M. and Romanov, N. P.] [Text] The article gives comparative measurements of the transparency of an oily fog by the lidar (wavelength 0.69y~-m) and base (wavelength 0.63 � m) methods in the range of optical thicknesses 0.1-4. The determined slope of the regression line, equal to 0.78, was caused by the difference in the co eff icients of attenua- tion at the wavelength of the lidar and base apparatus. The relative standard de- viation of optical thickneas for the lidar measurements is 0.15 and is caused both by errors in the lidar method and comparison errors.

The experiments were made with temperatures in the fog at the ground from 1.5 to -1.5�C. An 8-mm channel of the MRL-1 radar was used in observing the modification effect. Ttie use of the MRL-1 radar made it possible to determine the extent of the , zone of artificial modification at different distances from the source and esti- mate the velocity of vertical propagation of crystallization in the fag.

A., Zatsepina, L. P., Zontov, L. B. and , 5eregin, Yu. A.) [Text] The article presents the resulta of 74 experime~ats for the modification of cumulonimbus clouds by coarsely disperaed pulverized matter carried out during the summer of 1976/77 in Moldaviya. The experiments are part of a planned long-term randomized experiment (1976-1980) for the regulation of development of convective clouds with the use of high-altitude aircraf t. The checking of the results of m~d- ification was accomplished using surface 3-cm radar atations of the MRL type. In evaluating the dynamic activity of clouds use was made of a radar with an addi- tional device "turbulence indicator." The experiments indicated that in 80% of the cases modification leads to the destruction of clouds or a substantial de- cYease in their size. In a control series of experiments no effects were noted.

P., Zimin, B. I. and Nazirov, Z. N.] [Text] The results of long-term field experiments indicated that the dynami.c effect of modification is essentially dependent on the site of introduction of the reagent into a cloud. For checking and evaluating the accuracy of entry of the reagent into a stipulated part of the cloud specialists have developed an experimental method with the use of a polarization radar and artificial reflectors. Using the station it was possible to accomplish selection of the artificial reflectors introduced into the cloud together with the reagent. Preliminary estimates were made of the velo- cities of movement of the artificial reflectora in the cloudless atmoaphere and in a cloud. Figures 2, references 5.

The computations included data for the 17 years prior to modification and for 12 years with modification. The averaging of precipitation for a considerable number of stations (over.large , areas) for prolonged time intervals (four months) and the availability of long series of observations facilitated the elimination of their shart-period fluctu- ations and determination of the patterns of their spatial-temporal distribution. It is assumed that under the influence of hail protection an increase of precipi- , tation by 2-3% is probable, but this value is statistically unreliable. Tables 3, figures 2, references 14.

Ya. and Plaude, N. 0.] [Text] In a series of parallel experiments the authors measured the yield of ac- tive ice-forming particles for aerosols of 1.5-dihydroxynaphthalene and phloro- glucinol generated under identical conditions. In order to obtain aerosols use was made of two types of laboratory thermal generators in which the condensation of vapors of substance occurs during the mixing of an escaping jet of hot steam with the surrounding air. The dispersivity of the forming aerosols was varied by a change in the velocity of the ~et and the concentrations of active substance in it. The spectrum of particle sizes was determined using an electron microscope. The resulting sets of temperature dependences for the yield for the two sub- stances indicate that 1.5-dihydroxynaphthalene, dispersed in ordinary thermal generators, has a substantially lesser ice-forming activity than phloroglucinol, especially in the temperature range above -10�C. In the electron microscope in- vestigation Qf the dispersivity of aerosols of organic substances there is a de- crease in the measured number of particles due to the partial evaporation of nuclei. The distortion of the spectrum of sizes and the number of particles in- creases for substances with a lower melting point. Tables 2, figures 4, refer- ences 9. UDC 551.509.6 INVESTIGATION OF THE ICE-FORMING ACTIVITY OF SOME SOLUBLE SUBSTANCES [Abstract of article by Plaude, N. 0.] [Text] A study was made of the ice-forming activity of calcium iodide and ammonium fluoride which with a high solubility have parameters of the crystal lattice close to the parameters of the lattice of lead and silver iodide. Due to the strong hygro- scopicity of the substances their aerosols were obtained in a flow of dry inert gas and were introduced from a generator directly into a supercooled fog without dilu- l-ion in an aerosol chamber. Measurement of Che yield of active particles indicated that with a decrease in temperature, when there is a decrease in the influence of solubility, the activity of the substances increases. In this case the activity of the calcium iodide attains an activity close in its parameters to the lattice of easily soluble lead iodide. The results confirm the decisive importance of the geometrical correspondence of the crystal lattice of ice for the manifestation of ice-forming activity by the substance.

Ya., Brnmberg, A. V., Bychkov, N. V., Kordyuke- vich, N. G. and Plaude, N. 0.] [Text] Using laboratory generators of two types it was possible to obtain and in- vestigate aerosols of copper acetylacetone with mean cubic dimensions in the range 5�10'6-2�10'S cm. It is shown that the ice-forming activity of aerosols in the temperature range of a fog -10 --20�C is relatively weakly dependent on tem- perature and for the most part is determined by the supersaturation of water vapor ; in the zone of action of particles. Variation of aerosol dispersivity exerts no significant influence on the dependence of activity on supersaturation. The maxi- mum yield of active particles, measured for the most highly disperse aerosol, with , a computed supersaturation value ^~260y, was N1015 per gram. Tables 2, figures 4, references 7. UDC 551.509.616 INVESTIGATIONS OF THE INFLUENCE OF REGIMES OF GENERATION OF AgI AEROSOLS ON ITS ICE-FORMING ACTIVITY ' [Abstract of article by l:im, N. S.J [Text] The author has formulated a mathematical model for describing a varia- tion of the process of formation of AgI aerosols in the operation of full-size generators. Analysis of the derived equations made it possible to ascertain the principal parameters determining the yield of active nuclei. These are: the ratio of the rate of movement of the generator to the velocity of escape of the gas ~et � from the generator nozzle; the initial concentration of molecules of vapor of the active substance in the hot 3et; the coefficient of turbulent diffusion of the air flow surrounding the generator. The results of the numerical solutions agree well qualitatively with the experimental results. On the basis of these investi- gations the author has formulated requirements on the methods for the testing of generators under model conditions for the purpose of obtaining ob3ective informa- tion on the effectiveness of operation of full-size generators.

The modern airplane is capable of carrying numerous meteorological and navigational devices to high altitudes and can combine these devices into an information system using on-board computers. The modern airplane can also provide the measuring process with program, energy, and taetrological services. An airplane outfitted in such a way ie called an airplane meteorological laboratory (S1~). The SNII. is used extenaively for studying both naturally occurring atmospheric processes as well as for monitoring the influences on the environment. An important function of the SI~ is its ability to accompany the atmospheric phenom- enon under observation for distances of thousands of kilometers, thereby following the evolution of its characteristics. 31 ' FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/09: CIA-RDP82-00850R000400030025-7 APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/09: CIA-RDP82-00850R000400034025-7 NOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY ' formation capability of the Sr~II. proves the effectiveaesabilityrofetheds The large in ations.

The wave recorder developed at the Sakhalin Multidiscipline Scientific Research In- stitute for the registry of small changes in water level during the~passage of sur- face waves satisfies the mentioned requirements, to wit: is small in size, is com- pact and convenient to transport, simple to construct and ensures a relatively high accuracy in measuring a wuve with an amplitude up to 250 mm (.^~4Y).

The level sensor (Fig. 2) consists of a conducting rod (1) with a diameter of 4 mm and a length of 400 mm and four strings (2) stretched along it.

The network of buoy stationa is regarded as an array by means of which it wae posaible to study the ~ directional propertiea of internal waves of a semidturnal period. There was found to be a syatem of internal waves generated by dif- ferent sources. The stability of the direc- tiona of internal wavea is noted. , Investigations of recent years have indicated that internal gravitational waves with a semidiurnal period carry considerable energy [1, 3]. Obaervations in At- , lantic "Polygon-70" made it possible to detect the existence of quasistationary systems of internal gravitational waves with a tidal period [.2]. The purpose of our study was an investigation of the directional properties of these systeme of waves by means of evaluations of the spatial-temporal spectra at the correspond- ing scales. In the evaluation of the spatial-temporal spectra in our study we used the array method proposed by Barber j7] for determining the direction of surface waves with an arbitrary arrangement of the array detectors. Later Sabinin and Shulepov [6] used a similar method in inveatigating internal waves. On the basis of materiala from Atlantic "Polygon-70" we aelected the 10 variants of arrays listed in Table 1. Theae arrays coneisted of three-seven FT detectors placed at the 200-m horizon on eelf-contained buoy stations and making synchronous ~ - temperature measurements with a discreteness of 30 minutes. Al1 the apectral eval- uations were obtained from 12-day recorda. The numbering of the buoy station points corresponds to [1J.

The most significant "burst" corresponds to the first mode of the oscillations (wave length 105 km) for an internal wave directed in the azimuth 165�. Ztao less significant "bursts" are determined by second-mode waves (50 and 55 km), directed in the azimuths 260� and 170�.

The next stage in the investigation was a study of the dependence of the resulting spectral expansion on the influence of individual records. For this purpose we in ~ turn eliminated individual records fmm the computations and the computations ; were made wiChout them. Table 3 gives an example of such a nwnerical experiment ~ for variant 2. ~ ' The table shows that the absence or presence of any point with measurement~ does not introduce any fundamental change into the computations. Howev~r, the position of the maxima and their value can vary insignificantly as a result of elimination of one of the records. We made a comparison of the results of computations of the parameters of internal waves obtained from spatial spectra and the results of computations on the basis of phase expressions from [2] using these same data. In that study on the basis of phase relationships for series with high valuec~ of horizontal coherence it was � possible to ascertain the length and direction of waves on the basis of ineasure- ments at three points. These computations agree with the spatial spectrum in the - presence of a unidirectional wave syatem. In analyzing the results we should note two important circumstances. First, the semidiurn3l internal oscillations in the polygon are determined not by the passage of one system of waves, but several, generated in different regions. There is a predominance of directions to the south and west (Table 2) (a direction of 180� was also discovered earlier on the basis of phase relationships in [2]). The sec- ond significant fact is the stability of the directions of waves over the course of several measurement periods. A conclusion on the stability of directions was 47 FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/09: CIA-RDP82-00850R000400030025-7 APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/09: CIA-RDP82-00854R004400030025-7 FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY ~ also shown in [2] on the basis of computations using phase relationahips. A con- firmation of this result on the basis of computations of the spatial spectra for a large number of points and for a great number of ineasurements extending over a period of ttme, in our opinion, is extremely important. Proceeding on the basis of the Rattri model [5] of generation of internal waves of a tidal period on the coastal shelf and the Cox and Sandstrom model [8] of excita- tion of internal tides by a barotropic tide as a result of its interaction with bottom irregularities, it can be assumed that in the polygon there are internal waves of a tidal period of several systems generated in different places. For ex- ample, waves directed to the west could be excited near the Cape Verde Islands or on the coastal shelf of Africa. The Mid-Atlantic Ridge girdles the polygon in a semicircle with a radiua of about 600 miles on the west from north to south. Ac- cordingly, as a result of interaction between the barotropic tide and the mid- oceanic ridge there can be excitement of waves of different directions, including predominantly southerly. Evidently in some periods of time there is dominance of one system of waves, whereas in others there will be a different direction. It is impossible to analyze the reasons for the predominance of one system of waves over another due to the shortage of data. The principal conclusion of this study is that a large number of ineasurements re- vealed the presence of several systems of internal waves of a tidal period gener- - ated by different sources. The greater part of the energy is carried by waves of the lower modes. We also note the constancy of the directions of internal waves over the course of several months. As already noted earlier in [2], in principle there can be computations and prediction of internal waves of a tidal period, since their sources are stationary in space and quasistationary in time. The con- stancy of the direction of internal waves determined in this study confirms the possibility of prediction of internal waves of a semidiurnal period. BIBLIOGRAPHY 1.

Piterbar.g, Institiute of Ocean- ology, USSR Academy of Sciences] [Text] Abstract: The article describes thermal inhomogen- eities registered in calm weather by a temperature sensor towed near the ocean surface. It is shown that internal waves are a universal mechanism of their formation in diff erent parts of the world ocean. Precipitation and the variability of salin- ity and also convection exert an influence on the formation and characteristics of these inhomogen- eities. It has been noted by a number of researchers [2, 3, 5] that with intensive solar heating in calm weather the temperature distribution near the ocean surface as- s wnes a com~lex spotty (sometimes quasiperiodic) character. The typical dimensions of the alternating cold and warm apots fall in the range 1-10 km, the temperature between the spots can differ by 1-2�C, and the temperature gradients at the boun- - daries of the spots can exceed 1-2�C�km 1 I2~� Until now the physical nature of calm-weather horizontal temperature inhomogeneit- ies has not been reliably established. In the literature there have been discus- sions of the possible local .regsons for heating or the loss of heat, which could lead to the formation of temperature inhomogeneities on~a kilometer scale [3]. How- ever, it has remained unclear whether these inhomogeneities are created due to local differences in the heat balance or whether their origin is associated with the nonuniform distribution of heat entering the upper layer of the ocean. The lack of information concerning the thickaess of the layer affected by inhom~;,an- eities and on th~ horizontal variability of the vertical thermal structure did not make it possible to draw any definite conclusion. There was also need of as- surance that the temperature fluctuations registered by the towed temperature sen- sors could not be a result of "yawing" of the sensor in depth in the near-surface layer with a high vertical temperature gradient. The major complex of ineasurements which we made in the Atlantic Ocean under condi- tions of calm and with weak winds during the time of the 27th voyage of the sci- entific research vessel "Akademik.Kurchatov" in 1978 gave, it seems to us, a key to understanding the reasons for the appearance of calm-iaeather inhomogeneities. [The principal measurement methods and inatrumentation were described in [1]]. 50 FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/09: CIA-RDP82-00850R000400030025-7 APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/09: CIA-RDP82-00850R000400030025-7 FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY This article is devoted to their detailed description and a clarification of their physical nature. 1. Description of the phenomenon. Temperature inhomogeneities of a kilometer sCgle (Fig. 1) appear in the near-surface layer of the ocean in calm weather or when there are very weak winds (not more than 1 m�sec-1) at approximately 1000-1100 hours local solar time. As a rule they attain a maximum amplitude by 1400-1500 hours, that is, by the time of the maximum heating of the surface layer of the ocean. At th~ same time, the difference in temperature values between the level of registry with a towed sensor (z = 0.15 m) and a horizon of several meters at- tains a maximum value. When there is atrong heating already at about 1400 hours inhomogeneities of a kilometer scale are also registered at the horizons 3-4 m (Fig. l,a). The horizontal temperature differences at close points are traced at this time, as indicated by measurements with a floating-up nrobe ([6], a13o see be- low) to the horizon 8 m. o . . . . . _ _ . . . _ . . ~ _ . _ Q . . o I ' ti ~ 2,5Kx ~ . o ~ ~ ~ I ~ . - - ~ H � ~ ~ ~ I I ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ I I I I ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ o I a ~ ~ I h % i ~ ~ ~ . , , . ~ , , 14hJ0~' . l4~00~ . , Fig. 1.

As a rule they disappear between 1400 and 1500 hours LT. Only sometimes, under - conditione of extremely strong heating during an absolute calm, they persist to 51 .

For individual time shifts t= 8, 16,...,112 minutes) we determined pairs of soundings for which tlie differenee in spectral ' levels exceeds the limits of the confidence interval, that is, can be deemed sig- - nificant. This. analysis did not reveal a tendency to an increase in the difference { of spectral levels with an increase in the time tnterval between soundings. Figure 3 shows isolines of the coherence F(k, t) of the vertical Ts(z) profiles, ~ comnuted relative to sounding 1, which indicate a rather weak temporal variability of large-scale inhomogeneities (~,Z > 17 m). However, the F(k, t) values themselves in this range of scales are rather great and regularly decrease with an increase in the wave number. We note that the rather great dispersion of evaluations of coher- ence existing in computations with 25 degrees of freedom does not make it possible to consider the fluctuations. of the F(k, t) tsolines with small amplitudes to be significant. For inhomogeneities witfi scales less than 12-16 m there were coherence values exceeding the 95% zero level (Fp = 0.4) only ~t individual moments in time.

The change in sT~(t) approximately agrees with the change in z~(t), which, as was noted above, can be associated with the passage of a relatively long-p~riod wave disturbance. In this case the passage of the trough of such an internal wave (zm < 0) led to a general decrease in the intensity of small- scale temperature fluctuations, whereas at the wave crest there was an appreciable increase in sT~. Such a pattern of variability of sT~(t) can be attributable to the fact that at the crest of the long-period wave, as a result of the development of hydrodynami~ instability, there is formation of short-period internal waves which also cause an increase in the intensity of small-scale fluctuations in the aT~(z) profiles. A definite confirmation of this is a,mutual analysis of the change in sT~~(t) and x T~~(t), where X T~~ = d~/D~ is the vertical coefficient of field in- termittence T', d~ is the sum of ttie thickneasea of individual interlayers in which the aT~ values exceed the doubled noise level sT~n = 3�10-4 �C. The mean sT~ value was equal to 4.1�10-3 �C, and XT+ = 0.69, with standard deviations ~ ST~ = 10-3 �C and ~jcT~ = 0.08. The cross-correlation coefficient between sT~ and X T? nad a rather high positive value, equal to 0.76. This means that an increase in sT~ is associated with an increase in the layering of the sT~(z) profiles due to the formation of new layers earlier homogeneous with respect to T'. The reason for the formation of such interl.ayers u?ay be the short-period internal waves arising on the crests of Iong waves, as was already noted, for example, in [17]. In conclusior., I express appreciation to R. V. Ozmidov for useful discussions and _ comments.

New instruments are described.s the accelero- meter~ the electrolytic tiltmeter, the marine gravimetric complex, the marine gravi- meter and a prototype of a stationary gravimeter. ' The book is intended for specialists in the area of geophysics and measurement tech- _ nology. ~ Introduction In an overwhelming majority of cases the mea~urement of accelerations ca.n be reduced to measurement of a periodic process with a given length. During measurement of acceleration of the force of gravity by an instrument on a mobile base (an oceaiz vessel or aircraft), variations of vhe vector of the force of gravity are registered with periods dependent on the spatial distribution of anoma,lies of the force of gravity and the velocity of the mobile ba.se of the instrument. Instruments of gravity-inertial na,viga,tion record accelerations with a period of the order of ma~nitude of the time~ interval between reference points.

In studying the higher ha,r- monics of the gravita.tional field it is neceasary to dra,w in marine gravimetric surveys. Analysis of gravity anomalies is irreplaceable in estimating the thicknesses of any layers in the upper ma,ntle with anomalous density in those regions where the crust thickness and th~ velocities in the maxitle were determined preliminarily by seismic methods. T o solve that problem, at the present time the question axises of creating high-precision gravimetric a.pparatus with small dynamic errors and the derivatior~ of information directly on ma,chine carriera~ An important source of information about the internal structure of the earth is experimental data on variations of the ~orce of gravity caused by tidal forces~ that is, that information permitted selecting the best from all models of our planet obtained by seismic methods [1]. Pha,se lag of earthly tide~ permits making a~udgment of the rheologica,l properties of the body of the earth. Increase of the precision of registration of tidal vaxiations and concentration of the tidal station network increase the precision of determination of the b factor and give information about horizontal heterogeneities in the earth's mantle to con- siderable depths. � Anomalies in the recordings of earthly tides of both horizontal pendulums and gra- vimeters when the station precision and density are inadequate can serve as a key for interpretation of the bloc,k structure of the earth's crust. Toma,shek [10] connects those regional effecta with movement of tectonic blocks. Many interesting effects connect~d with irregulaxity of the rotation of the earth, described by N. N.

(1NT~Y i il known and the reason for acceleration of the earth's rotation by 10-5 s~year is unknown. According to [2] it cannot be ca,used by known "external" ca.uses and is , connected rather with variation of the ~noment of inertia. On the assumption of ' compression of the earth without cha,nge of ma.ss and distribution of density thie ; would lead to cha,nge of the planet's radius with a velocity of 0.4~5 mm~yeax and ' of the value of the force of gravity on the surface of 0.14~10'9 g~year. The rate of irregular changes of the rotation rate can reach values two ord.ers of ma;gnitude larger than the secular deceleration. On the ba.sis of Brawn's hypo- thesis [3~ N. N. Paxiyskiy examined [2] possible changes inside the earth which ca,n ca.use that phenomenon and made it clear which changes of the force of gravity on the surface of the planet will accompany tha,t. Without presenting tha,t analysis in detail~ we will present only its results. For spherica.lly symmetric strains the changes of the earth's radius amount to 43 to 12 cm for a variable layer of 0.99 to 0.55 earth radius, which cor~esponds to vaxiation of the force of gravity on ' the surface of 0.13 to 0.04~10-6 g. During strain distribution (according to a i second-order spherica,l fl.zn ction) for a thickness of the variable layer of 27 m with increasing density by 0.1 g~em3 at a depth of 380 km the earth radius ~hange is 0.8 m and the corresponding change of the force of gravity of 0.25~10- g. Conse- quently~ sma.ll variations at depths of the earth can be registered by high-sensi- tivity gravimeters. But if irregular rotation of the earth is caused by geologica.l ~ or tectonic features of the structuze of the earth's crust~ it is described by I spherica.l functions of a higher order and can lead to still greater variations of the force of gravity in time. ~ Another area of investigations in which the gravimetric method can be used as one of the most sensitive with a larggyield is study of the structure and contemporary ~ movements of the earth's crust, the amplitudes of which are fairly high and can be registered with modern instruments. The velocities of vertica,l movements fluctuate from 2-3 mm~year in quiet zones to 10-15 cm~year in the seismica,lly very active. For example, the rate of upthrust of Scandinavia according to levelling data amounts to 9-10, at Garm to 16-100 and at the Alma,-Ata polygon 50 mm~year. ' Darwin assumed tha.t with increase of the precision of tida,l and barometric observa- ~ tions it would be possible to estima.te the mean shear modulus of the upper part of ' the earth�s crust. According to his computations~ fluctuations of pressure of 50 mm Hg can incline the lithosphere sufrace by 0.012", which must be accompanied ; by cha,n~;e of the force of gravity of 1 to 2�10-9 g. Proofs of the role of active ~ faults in depressions of the earth's crust were obtained by Nishimura. In his in- ~ vesti~ations the indirect effects were so large in comparison with the direct tha,t the cha.racter of the reaction of the earth's crust to them gives interesting in- forma,tion about the microstructure of upper layers of the crust [4]. ~ Besides the registration of tides~ of extraordinary interest is interpreta~tion of the instrument drift curve~ obtained by Pertsev's method and providing informa,tion - about sagging of the soil under the effect of overloa.dings of water ma.sses; of still greater interest is the possibility of registering movement of inaccessible masses, for example~ during volcanic events.

These two questions are extremely important in the analysis of orogenic movements of volcanism and the mechanism of earth- quakes~ which can help greatly in eaxthquake prognosis ~5~. Observations of the volcano Aso in Japan before and during eruptions show changes of up to 150�. Nishimura et al [6] registered vaxiations in ground inclinations simultaneously at stations hundreds of kilometers apart immediately before earth- quakes with an a,mplitude of 0.03"~ which ought to be accompanied by change of the force of gravity by a minimum of (2-3)�10-y g. For the registration of relatively slow tectonic vertical movements of 1 to 10 mm~year a fixed gravimeter ought to ha.ve a sensitivity of (1-2) 10'10 g and a stability of not worse tha,n 3 10'9 g~year. , Much work is now being done, ma,inly in the readily accessible regions of the Soviet Union (the Crimea, the Russian platform~ etc~~ on the determination of relative variations of the force of gravity ~10~, but those measurements are $eing ma,de epi- sodically and without ad~rquate precision, in the best case (2-3)~10- g~ which in displacements amounts to 7-10 mm. It is necessary to develop apparatus of a higher class to solve extremely important questions rega.rding the connection between observed strains of the earth's crust and seismic phenomena and study of the mechan- ism of earthquakes and the nature of fault forma,tion~ Connected directly with gravimetry is a number of key questions of theoretica,l physics, in particular, one of the important questions of the general theory of relativity--~~rifica.t~~n of the stability of the gravitationa,l constant on the level of 10- to 10- ~year [17]. Verifica,tion apparently is impossible without condiserable improvement of the precision of registration of both tidal variations of the force of gra.vity and of the absolute value and without drawing in additional informa,tion on variations of the mean earth radius and effects ca,used by them. Thus, when resolution ha.s been increased and there is long-term stability of the zero point of static ~;ravimeters, possibilities are opened up for the study of phenomena both interesting in themselves and helpi~ig to solve questions connected with many areas of geophysics and physics. Refinement of the mod.el of the earth's internal structures study of the structure and rheolo~ical properties of the crust and upper ma,ntle; vertica.l displacements of the surface in the epicentral zone as precursors of earthquakes and eruptions of volcanoes; large-scale strains connected with crn vections in the mantle~ pha.se tran- sitions and variations of the earth ra.dius and its rotation rate; stability of the gravitational constant and an indisputably large number of practical problems-- this is an incomplete list of questions awaiting their solution by means of static gravimeters. Measurement of low-frequency a,cceleration is of great importance for the solution of many important practical problems, above all in the creation of inertial navi- _ gation systems. They are based on the connection, known from mechanics, between accelerations~ velocities and the~covrdinates of moving bodies~ consisting of the fact tha.t the velocity is an integral of the acceleration and the travelled path characterizing the coordina,tes of a body is an integra,l of the velocity.

According to current concepts, the general problem of.propagation of radio waves in the ionosphere must be regarded as two different but at the same time interrelated problems. The first of these involves investigations of the in- fluence of properties of the medium on the parameters of the propagating signal, for example, on the propagation path, the spectral properties of the signal, the statistical characteristics of amplitude and phase. In a rigorous mathematical for- , mulation this problem is reduced to finding solutions of the Maxwell equation (or i their asymptotic equivalents) with stipulated parameters of the medium in which the ~ propagation occurs. The second part of the overall problem includes investigation of properties of the medium on the basis of data on the parameters of the signal at one of the points in three-dimensional space. This is the problem of finding ~ ~olutions oE the integral equation, where the unknown functions are the electrody- namic parameters of the mediwn. Whereas the first part of the general problem is clealt witli for the most part in theoretical investigations, for the second part the decisive role is played by experimental investigations because it makes it pos- I sible (assuming a correct formulation and solution of the inverse problem) to ob- ' tain information on the ionosphere using different radiophysical methods. i ' 141 ~ ; ~ ; i FOR OFFIC[AL USE ONLY ~ APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007/02/09: CIA-RDP82-00850R000400030025-7 APPROVED FOR RELEASE: 2007102/09: CIA-RDP82-00850R000400030025-7 FOR nFFI('L~1. l~~l~; ONl.l' In general form the problem of radio wave propagation in ionospheric plasma in- cludes a great diversity of problems of interest in both purely scientific and in practical respects. If these problems are examined applicable to the conditions existing in the high-latitude ionosphere, the most important directions seem to be the following. 1. Investigation of the paths of propagation of a radio signal in an inhomogeneous medium. Even the very formulation of the problem assumes the use of the ray approx- imation in seeking solutions of interest. In this case specific modeJ.s of the medium are selected and fo r these, using numerical methods in most cases, the prop- agation paths are found for different conditions of radiation and reception of a signal at the ends of the postulated radio path. In its practical aspects the prob- lem is of unquestionable interest because a knowledge of propagation paths is a necessary condition for the effective operation of many radioelectronic systems. 2. Investigation of the amplitude characteristics of the received signal. The sig- nal field level and its variations are important propagation conditions, by inves- tigating which it is possible to ascertain the mechanisms of interacCion between the medium and signal. Theoretically, by stipulating the specific type of inhomo- geneities in the medium, it is possible to obtain different spatial-temporal dis- tributions of the amplitude of the scattered signal fie~d. These include, for ex- ample, the spatial field distributions with the diffraction of a wave on a phase screen, temporal fluctuations with scattering on random inhomogeneities, described by the Rayleigh, Rice, Nakagami and other distributions. In this case it is also of interest to consider the possibility of solution of the inverse problem, and specifically, on the basis of the known characteristics of a signal at the recep- tion point to ascertain the structure and parameters of motion of inhomogeneities. From the practical point of view an investigation of amplitude statistical distrib- ution laws will make it possible to seek optimum methods for the transmission of information for different communication systems, that is, conditions when with a stipulated rate of transmission of information the probability of error will be minimum. The successful solution of a number of specific problemg within the framework of the considered directions will govern any increase in the reliability of many radioelectronic systems using ionospheric propagation of radio waves. A simple enumeration of the problems which are of Areat practical interest indicates how complex and varied is the formulated problem. A noteworthy feuture of ttie modern development of society is the intensive develop- ment of the Arctic and Antarctica. In addition to factors of an economic and pure- ly scientific nature the exploitation of these regions (especially the Arctic) is ciictated by exceptionally important considerations of a practical character. Unfor- tunately, short-wave apparatus, which has been most i.ntensively developed up to this time, including communication, direction finding and radar, has been extreme- 1y unreliable here due to disturbances caused by geophysical processes transpiring in the polar ionosphere. In particular, methods for determining the coordinates of a tracked or ranged ob~ect were unsatisfactory when used in high-latitude regions because they do not take into account many characteristics of structure of the polar ionosphere and the characteristics of radio wave propagation associated with them. Among these character3stics are the gradients of ionospheric p3.asma 142 FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY .

All these factors exert a sub- stantial influence on the conditions for signal propagation, and accordingly, a1g0 on its characteristics registered at ttie reception point. In an investigation of radio wave propagation in the high-latitude ionosphere in disturbed periods it is impossible to lose frora sight the following circumstance of more ttian a little importance. The fact is that the polar ionosphere consists of nonequilibrium magnetically active plasma in which there are fields, electric currents and beams of charged particles. In the nonequilibrium medium the pattern ~ of propagation of the radio signal differs considerably from ordinary conditions. ! Here such effects as the interaction of electromagnetic waves and directed corpus- ~_ular streams begin to exert an effect, which leads to the pumping of energy from tlie particles to the field and vice versa. A result of this can be an intensifica- tion or colltsionless dissipation of the signal, a distortion of its spectrum caus- ecl by the movement of plasma inhomo~;eneities. In order to realize such an approach to the problem it is necessary to begin to develop a new direction in investigation of the ionospheric propagation of radio waves, specifically an investigation of propagation in a nonequilibrium plasma medium. A logical consequence of such an approach is investigations of nonlinear interactions of electromagnetic oscillations and fields in the ionosphere both at the time of natural disturbances and with its artificial modification. The most important parameters subject to changes due to the above-mentioned factors are: the amplitude of the received signal and the statistical law of distribution of fluctuations of amplitude, the autocorrelation function of signal amplitude (the same also applies to the signal phase), group time for signal propagation and its variation. These characteristics determine the conditions for operation of the radioelectronic systems and the choice of the method for processing the signal ugainst a background of noise of natural origin. This monograpli, while making no pretense at the completeness of coverage of all tlie scientific problems wliicli relate to the mechanisms of physical processes transpiring in tlie liigh-latitude ionosphere, is devoted specifically to those of - them which can exert the greatest influence on the characteristics of a propagat- ing radio signal. It is assumed that the reader is familiar with the principal laws of fortnation and dynamics of ionospt~eric layers under undisturbed conditions when the decisive - factor is solar UV radiation. One of the arguments ~ustifying the appearance of Chis monoKrapli is that most of the data on the influence of auroral disturbances c?n t}?e ctiaracteristics of radio wave propagation are scattered 3n individual ar- ticles. Emphasis in these articles is devoted to the study only of the parameters of propagation wittiout regard to the general geophysical conditions in the auroral zone existing at tfie time of observations.
