The effects of atmospheric temperature on the intensity of the electronic component of the secondary cosmic rays at sea level have been investigated experimentally over a period of 17 months. Both positive and negative correlations are found, depending on the atmospheric level chosen. These results are in quantitative agreement with the theoretical prediction of Dorman (1956). The solar diurnal variations for the electron and [mu]-meson components have been compared, and it is shown that after proper correction for atmospheric temperature variations they are not significantly different. Comparison of the intensity changes during four Forbush decreases shows that there is no significant difference between the behaviour of the [mu]-meson and the electron components.
