The orbital parameters of the Intercosmos 13 rocket (1975-22B), determined from almost 7000 observations at 103 epochs during the period between April 1975 and April 1980, are presented. Of the orbits determined, 21 encompassed a period when the satellite was close to the 14th-order resonance; appreciable resonance effects lasted for about 150 days with an overall effect discernible for about 340 days. The variations in orbital inclination throughout this phase are examined to determine the effect of the 14th-order resonance and to evaluate four lumped geopotential harmonics of order 14. Analysis of the variation in orbital inclination on either side of the 14th-order resonance yielded five values of the average atmospheric rotation rate (at effective heights of 288, 316, 323, 325, and 328 km).
