✦ Synopsis
Based on theoretical radiative cooling values and observed temperature changes with time near the surface during the night, the bulk heat transfer coefficient C, is estimated from standard meteorological observations obtained from stations representative of open rural, small town and large urban areas, for nights with clear skies and relatively strong winds. It is shown that C, is smaller than the drag coefficient C,, and that C,fC, over urban areas is smaller than that over open countryside. e f d H IE L L1 LA P* R# R "" TO TS u U* ul ' JUNSEI KONDO AND SHIGENORI HAGINOYA 0 potential temperature 4 soil heat conductivity P air density ps soil density w, precipitable water within the inversion air column.
