To this purpose there follows, in reduced and tabulated form, the simultaneous hourly values of the atmospheric electric variables together with concurrent meteorological observations recorded at the Mauna Loa high altitude observatory on the island of Hawaii during the period from September 1, 1960 through August 31, 1961.
