JP2.26 CLIMATOLOGY OF THE WINTER SURFACE TEMPERATURE INVERSION IN

The surface temperature inversion in the subarctic setting of Fairbanks, Alaska has been investigated. In winter the inversion is strong and semi-permanent; it separates the boundary layer from the air aloft and has great importance for pollution levels in town. We analyzed the changes that have occ...
