Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The paper is devoted to an experimental study of temperature distribution in a road pavement and its soil base in the climatic conditions of the south-eastern Kazakhstan. The temperature was measured by a monitoring system that included sensors and was powered by solar panels. The characteristics of changes in air temperature, asphalt concrete pavement surface, pavement layers and soil base points are analyzed and described. Using a model and the Stefan-Boltzmann law direct, scattered and summary solar radiations were determined. Correlations were established between the amounts of scattered and summary solar radiations and the maximum daily surface temperature of the asphalt concrete pavement. A graph of freezing and thawing of the road pavement and soil base was constructed and its characteristics were determined.
