Scientific paper

Observations of winds in the 80-100 km height region were made at three locations in South Australia during the total solar eclipse of 23 October 1976. One station (Tantanoola) was located in the eclipse path while the others (Adelaide and Woomera) were situated several hundred kilometers north of the path of totality. Wind variations caused either directly by cooling of the 90 km region or by the propagation of a bow wave generated in the lower atmosphere were searched for but no events were found that could be ascribed unambiguously to the eclipse.
