During the 1992--93 collider run of the Fermilab Tevatron the D0 experiment accumulated a large sample of events with jets in the final state. Since the D0 detector can trigger on jets over the entire pseudorapidity range {vert_bar}{eta}{vert_bar} < 3.2, we collected a sample of events containing jets separated by large rapidity intervals. Such events may not be well described by LO or NLO QCD perturbative calculations due to the increased importance of additional gluon radiation which tends to decorrelate the leading jets in the event. These contributions can be included using a leading-log approximation (LLA) where the leading logarithmic terms are resummed calculation of Del Duca and Schmidt. We present the first experimental measurement of jet-jet {phi} correlations as a function of the rapidity interval of the {eta} ordered jets. We compare these results to JETRAD, HERWIG and BFKL resummation predictions.
