Understanding convection and temperature inversion in calm nights
An explanation of ground heating and convective air movement. Warm ground warms the adjacent air, causing a rising column and a layer of cooler air above, leading to a temperature inversion after sunset. The process creates a stable cold layer near the surface from 200 to 800 feet, shaping nighttime temperature profiles.
