Meanings
-
(not-comparable) Of or relating to temperature.
In the temperature interval from 300 to 100 K the spectral dependences of the surface photo-emf and a temperatural variation of the electron work function have been measured using the Kelvin method. It has been found that a temperature decrease from 300 down to 100 K leads to an increase of the depleting band bending by 0.21±0.05 eV.
1989, Поверхность, page 45:It is only by the superabundance or preponderation of one of these elements over the other, that the spirit is disturbed, and the body is afflicted with temperatural changes—either cold or heat, agues or fevers.

Mussey & Co., […], page 94:But while metabolic differentiation due to temperatural, nutritional and environmental influences explains some immunity reactions it by no means explains all or even the major portion of them.
