POTENTIAL TEMPERATURE VERTICAL PROFILES
Vertical profiles of the potential temperature are computed in the [0-20km] range above ground level (a.g.l.) and centered on the LBT. Data points frequency is 2 minutes.- TIME AVERAGES:
Three time averages are presented, computed in the first, central and last part of the night (see partition). The corresponding Mountain Standard Time (MST=UT-7) is shown on the top of the figure.
The blue light halo around each average represents the +/- sigma in the respective time window.
Fig. 4 represents the three time averages in the same plot with different colors to better appreciate the macroscopic changes in the three temporal intervals.
