Abstract

The paper presents statistics of parameters entering into analytical equations for structural functions of air temperature in the ground surface layer over an inhomogeneous underlying surface. The main attention is paid to analysis of histograms of these parameters. A rather high degree of variability of the parameters is noticed, which is connected, in particular, with the observation site and with the height of installation of the measuring instrument. The relation between parameters of the structural functions and standard deviations of the wind velocity and air temperature is considered briefly.
