Headlines, editorial reports, and material enclosed in brackets
are supplied by JPRS. Processing indicators such as [TextJ
or fExcerpt] in the first line of each item, or following the
last line of a brief, indicate how the original information was
processed. Where no processing indicator is given, the infor-
mation was summarized ~r extracted.
Unfamiliar names rendered phonetically or transliterated are
enclosed in parentheses. Words or names preceded by a ques-
tion mark and enclosed in parentheses were not clear in the
original but have been supplied as appropriate in context.
Other unattributed parenthetical notes within the body of an

(Text] Abstract: On the basis of tha results of
_ s.ynchronous measurements of microscale
velocity fluctuations of a current, its
vertical gradients and the vertical gradi-
ents of water density a study was made of -
the empirical dependence of the mean squa:e
turbulence level ? u~ on the Richardson
