Abstract

The invention provides a trapping and measuring device for collecting and weighing wind borne particles of sand in the desert. The device includes a rotatable trapping housing which is constructed to permit the wind to pass through while trapping the sand carried by the wind. A wind-catching plate attached to the rotatable housing provides orientation of the housing entrance openings so as to face the wind. -from US Govt Reports Announcements, 26, 1980
