This grant constitutes the first attempt to use the new satellite               imaging facilities at McMurdo and Scripps Institute of                          Oceanography for research purposes.  Several studies of the                     surface winds of West Antarctica will be undertaken; the satellite              data will be supplemented by all available surface and upper air                data.  Specific topics to be addressed include:                                                                                                                 1. Delineation of the time-averaged and time dependent surface                     airflow patterns over West Antarctica.                                                                                                                       2. Description of the space-time characteristics of katabatic                      surges and their precursors in the Siple Coast confluence zone.                                                                                              3. Definitions of the characteristics and conditions under which                   katabatic surges from Siple Coast propagate northward along the                 Transantarctic Mountains to reach Ross Island.                                                                                                               Objective 3. has promise of developing into a method of midterm                 forecasting (12 hr) of considerable operational value.                                                                                                          The Byrd Polar Research Center at Ohio State University is well                 equipped to carry out these studies.
