1.- Introduction
• Evening transition processes in the ABL: from convection to stability
• Comparison at two experimental sites
• Simulations: differences between sites?

2.- Methodology
• Data from two experimental sites: CIBA site (Spain) and the BLLAST campaign site (France).
• Days studied from two summer periods: 2009 (CIBA) and 2011 (BLLAST).
• Times related to sunset for every site and day (t=0 => tsunset).
• Simulations using WRF model.
• MRFD technique employed.

Time step: 81 seconds. 50 eta vertical levels. Spin up: 12 h. SW radiation: Dudhia (1998). LW radiation RRTM. Microphysics package: WSM3.

6.- Summary and conclusions
Evening transition processes have been evaluated at two different experimental sites.
MRFD timescales: similar evolution, but with some differences.
Radiative cooling: seems to be influenced by soil moisture.
Simulations: tend to overestimate the turbulence after sunset at one of the sites (the less dried).
