The U.S. Army Natick Laboratories, Natick, Massachusetts, established and operated the micrometeorological program at Plateau Station, East Antarctica, during 1966–1968. During the station's first year the program was limited to solar radiation measurements of global shortwave, reflectd shortwave, total global, total outgoing, and incident shortwave. The radiation program was broadened in 1966 to include incoming and outgoing shortwave and longwave radiation. Spectral radiation measurements of the global shortwave were taken during the summer of 1966–1969.
