Les tendances à une diminution de l'amplitude quotidienne de la température (AQT) dans de nombreuses régions du monde semblent liées à un accroissement de la nébulosité et à une intensification du cycle hydrologique. Dans tout le Canada, la diminution de l'AQT est associée à une hausse totale des températures minimales depuis 1946 de 0,4 °C, comparativement à 0,3 °C pour les températures maximales. La tendance de l'AQT dans le sud du Canada depuis 1895 est encore plus prononcée. 3, record 1, French, - amplitude%20diurne%20de%20la%20temp%C3%A9rature
