Acknowledgment 
The authors wish to acknowledge the 
many contributions to this experiment - 
its planning, implementation, and 
execution - by their colleagues not only 
in NASA but more particularly in the 
U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) 
and in the National Oceanic and Atmo- 
spheric Administration (NOAA) of the 
U.S. Department of Commerce. This is 
truly a joint venture among the three 
agencies, and many have played important 
roles in bringing the experiment to its 
present state.
