Abstract:Abstract. Local temperature variations at the surface are mainly dominated by small-scale processes coupled through the surface energy budget terms, which depend mostly on radiation availability and thus cloud processes. A method to determine each of these terms based almost exclusively on observations is presented in this paper, with the main objective to estimate their importance in hourly surface temperature variations at the SIRTA observatory, near Paris. Almost all terms are estimated from the multi-year … Show more
