The microclimate at the ground level is very important to plant life. Consider four temperature profiles (A to D) collected above and below bare ground during different time points within a diel (24-hour) period: i. Immediately after sunrise (Ground surface starts heating up, but deep layers remain cool) ii. Noon (Maximum solar radiation, sharpest surface heating) iii. Immediately before sunset (Surface cooling begins, but deeper soil retains heat) iv. Midnight (Maximum surface cooling, inversion profile) Which profile matches best with the corresponding time points?
