Figure 8

Absolute values of the temperature ITC’s (calculated following formulas (2) and (3)) for the convective period (16.6.–31.8., green dots) and the rest of the shown year (1.9.–15.6., not convective, black dots) in dependency of the stability parameter . Additionally shown are the absolute values of the hyperbolic cotangent of the values of (red dots) and the temperature ITC’s following the parameterisation of Foken et al. ([27], blue crosses).
