Nocturnal surface temperature distribution as remotely sensed from low-flying aircraft

The relationship of the nocturnal surface temperature to gently undulating terrain is examined. Surface temperatures are inferred from radiation, measured from low-flying aircraft. Terrain curvature is found to be an important topographical variable for explaining the surface temperature distributio...
