Climatology of surface-based inversions in the North American Arctic / Raymond S. Bradley, Frank T. Keimig, Henry Frank Diaz.
Title: | Climatology of surface-based inversions in the North American Arctic / Raymond S. Bradley, Frank T. Keimig, Henry Frank Diaz. |
Author(s): | Bradley, Raymond S. Keimig, Frank T. Diaz, Henry Frank. |
Date: | 1992. |
In: | Journal of Geophysical Research. (1992.), Vol. 97(D14) (1992) |
Abstract: | Examines annual cycle of close to ground temperature inversions on basis of 20-year set of daily, significant level 1200 UT soundings from nine stations in northern Alaska and Canada. Winter inversions are primarily caused by strongly negative net radiation at surface. Summer inversions most commonly result from near-surface cooling of warm air masses. |
