Document Summary

It camouflages several variability: the environmental lapse rate will variate with how intensely the surface is heated. So the air is poo(cid:396) (cid:272)o(cid:374)du(cid:272)to(cid:396), the(cid:396)e"s a (cid:396)apid d(cid:396)opoff i(cid:374) te(cid:373)pe(cid:396)atu(cid:396)e. high e(cid:374)(cid:448)i(cid:396)o(cid:374)(cid:373)e(cid:374)tal lap(cid:396)se (cid:396)ate.

When not only in a clear light and very little counter radiation but also when a surface is frozen. So you have warmer air in higher altitude, and colder air at the bottom: when that inversion occurs higher up in the troposphere, we call it an upper level inversion. We can also have pa(cid:396)(cid:272)els of ai(cid:396) that"s fo(cid:396)(cid:272)ed to (cid:396)ise. S(cid:395)ua(cid:396)e (cid:373)et(cid:396)es to k(cid:373). the size of the parcel varies. There r diverse forces that push a parcel of air up. Wind encounters a rock barrier and is then forced to rise up windward slope.
