The Ogo 4 tropical nightglow data on the O I 1356-¿ and [O I> 6300-¿ emissions during several months in the fall of 1967 are analyzed in conjuction with theoretical models. From the latitudinal asymmetry present in the tropical emissions the neutral wind velocities in the magnetic meridian at the time of the observations are found to reach 150 m/s near 2000 LT in the Pacific sector and 110 m/s in the Indian sector. The longitudinal dependence of the emissions indicates a strong zonal component (referred to geographic coordinates) and allows the resolution of the inferred wind velocities into geographic zonal and meridional wind components. The geographic zonal component reaches a maximum velocity of 260 m/s near 2200 LT.
