Multi-Tsol (simulated Tsols 2–5) evolution of (a) net downward shortwave flux (solid lines) and net downward infrared flux (dashed lines), (b) surface skin temperature, (c) thermal conduction in the shallowest subsurface layer, (d) surface sensible heat flux, (e) net residual energy in the shallowest subsurface layer, and (f) PBL depth for dry simulations with varied regolith thermal properties (baseline simulation, and sensitivity tests 2–5 varying the volumetric heat capacity, c_v, and conductivity, ﹩\kappa ﹩). The maximum PBL depth in Tsol 3 is listed in the main text. Individual simulations are labeled in panel (b).
