A methodological sequence with calculations of atmospheric thermal gradients at surface level is proposed in this study. This methodology has been applied in the Rheinland-Pfalz state (Rhine-Palatinate, Germany), where we can observe interesting effects, such as the differences between the atmospheric state of high and valley areas. Thermic inversions at certain altitude intervals during particular months, thermic imbalances by external factors and keys for improving land management in different land uses have been detected. To define the thermal gradients, this paper will begin with a cluster analysis and calculations of linear estimates. Finally they will be represented in graphics with trend lines.
