The possibility of such correlation is indicated, for te ay 2” example, by studies showing psychophysiological effects and behavioral changes?’ * associated with ELF electromagnetic fields. The geophysical variables of interest include such factors as ELF intensity/fluctuations, ionospheric conditions, geomagnetic indices, sunspot number, and solar- flare characteristics. The questions addressed in this program are * Do geophysical/performance correlations exist such that measurement of the ambient geophysical variables could be used as an indicator of expected performance? * If so, can optimum performance windows be identified? (U) The structure of the program to investigate the above issues consists of * A literature search * Real-time ELF measurements ~- SRI International (Menlo Park, California location) --~ Time Research Institute (Los Altos, California field station). * Real-time geophysical data acquisition via the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Westar IV satellite downlink. ° Computer correlation studies of RV performance versus variables of interest. (U) In this report, we present findings from our over~six-year analysis of scored RV sessions--as they relate to geophysical environmental * (U) References are listed at the end of this report. 3 SEGREF— Approved For Release 2000/08/08: CIN RB PNG. 08¥88R001800270001-4

These corre- lations have yielded positive results, indicating that geophysical processes may play a role in determining RV performance, and may, with ‘further effort, lead to the forecasting of RV performance. 4 NCLAS.
