Work is described which was performed during the period 1 July, 1973 to 30 June 1974, and also the period 1 February 1973 to 30 June 1973 which was covered by an extension of the previous contract period without additional funds. Writing on Part 4 of the Critical and Creative Review'' of Atmospheric Transport Processes proceeded during these two time periods. A visit to the Physikalisch--Bioklimatische Forschungsstelle Garmisch-Partenkirchen'' produced fruitful ideas on the utilization of cosmogenic radionuclides in the age determination of stratospheric air. As in previous years, a Chemist- Meteorologist Workshop in Fort Lauderdale was again chaired by the principal investigator. The behavior of global circulation patterns in both hemispheres, with special emphasis on stratospheric patterns, has been studied and noteworthy results have been obtained. (auth)
