We use temperature and relative humidity profiles from the Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System (ACARS) to examine the diurnal evolution of the convective boundary layer over land for various geographical locations. The ACARS profiles from automated aircraft and airport measurements will be compared with radiosonde data.
