Skin temperature in the context of the atmosphere refers to the temperature measured at the surface of an object or material, typically the Earth's surface, including soil, vegetation, buildings, and other surfaces. This measurement can be influenced by several factors including solar radiation, atmospheric conditions, and the physical properties of the surface material. Skin temperature is an important concept in various fields such as meteorology, climatology, and environmental science because it affects processes like evaporation, heat exchange, and energy balances within the Earth's system.
