| Summary: | Abstract-Diurnal variations in the electric field strength, electrical conductivity, and temperature in the near Earth atmosphere under "fair weather" conditions at the Paratunka observatory (Kamchatka) are con sidered. It is shown that the morning maximum in the electric field diurnal behavior is caused by air convec tion in the near surface layer. The difference in the atmospheric temperatures near the Earth's surface and at an altitude of 25 m is chosen as a measure of the convective air flow. A high correlation of the values of the temperature difference for these altitudes with the diurnal behavior of the electric field strength is obtained. |
