Abstract

The vertical statistical structure of air temperature and humidity ( specific humidity) fields within the atmospheric boundary layer of East Siberia are analyzed for cloudless conditions and heavy overcast, using many-year (2002–2012) data of four aerological stations (Tura, Yakutsk, Kirensk, Chita). The features of the altitudinal distribution of the background (average climatic) characteristics and the dispersions of air temperature and humidity are considered up to a height of 1600 meters with the account of cloud state of the atmosphere and depending on the season and geographical location of the station.
