The diurnal temperature variation during the polar night
Abstract It is well known that if special types of days are considered separately, systematic diurnal temperature variations may be found to exist at polar stations even during the dark season. In the present paper it is shown that, in all probability, this phenomenon is of trivial nature and that a...
