Why does a cloudless desert sky at night mean that the temperature will get much colder?

During the daytime, the Sun will heat up the ground and the atmosphere with its electromagnetic radiation: usually it's the infrared light. During the nighttime, the Earth will send back the accumulated heat during the day to the space, by emitting infrared radiation, which refreshed the ground and the atmosphere.

A cloudless skies and a dry air will accentuate this effect because the cloud cover and the water vapor within the atmosphere prevent brutal heating or brutal cooling: indeed, a high cloud cover will block and prevent any radiation emitted by the Sun or by the Earth to reach the ground or the atmosphere respectively. In addition, dry air can be heated up or cooled off a lot faster than moist air because heating or cooling water vapor takes more time. That's why the diurnal temperature ranges can be high in hot deserts with many cloudless skies and the dryness of the air.
