whole night, it is called tropical night in the northeastern Asian countries
(Fig. 4(a)).
Sensible heat fluxes at the surface of the mountain top and in lower
atmosphere with
10 W/m

produce sensible heat flux divergence,
indicating heat loss at the ground surface and cooling of ground surface
(Fig. 4(b)). Sensible heat fluxes of

70 and

140 W/m

on the eastern slope to

10 W/m

in the lower atmosphere also produces a great sensible heat flux
divergence along the slope, resulting in great change of air temperature
