Abstract: | Temperature fluctuations with periods of about half an hour have been recorded at hill stations near Fairbanks, Alaska during periods of strong surface inversions. These fluctuations can be explained as seiches in the lake of cold air enclosed on three sides by the hills surrounding Fairbanks. |
