By what is now called the "0th Law of Thermodynamics"= temperature is virtually defined as that which comes to equilibrium with its surroundings .

This comes to about 15 degrees Celsius . Increased atmospheric insulation will decrease peak day time temperature and increase minimum night time temperature , eg , cloudy days and nights .
