Radiative cooling & partly cloudy nights
What is the mechanism by which the temperature *rises* when clouds come
over on otherwise clear nights*? Common sense suggests that the most they could do would be to halt the drop in temperature. After all, a rise in temperature *should* require a heat source, and those are absent at night. *I'm referring to nights with no frontal activity, of course. -- Paul Hyett, Cheltenham (change 'invalid83261' to 'blueyonder' to email me) |
