Abstract
Radiosonde data for the years 1969-1972 have been processed to determine surface inversion conditions over Southern Africa. Results are presented to show the actual and probable frequency of occurrence, depth and strength of surface inversions at midnight, early morning and midday for the year as a whole and for summer, autumn, winter and spring.Keywords
