GEOG 1111 Midterm: Exam 1 Study Notes at UGA
Document Summary
Geog 1111-(test 1) resists vertical displacement or, when disturbed, tends to return to its the height in the atmosphere at which condensation occurs, where cloud the term adiabatic refers to a parcel of air changing temperature without decrease increase. Changing the temperature of the air without adding or expands and cools is compressed and warms less; rises varies with the humidity condition (water vapor. Atmospheric stability refers to the tendency of an air parcel, with its water vapor, to either remain in place or to change vertical position by ascending or descending. Condensation level formation begins (usually seen as the bottom of a cloud mass) Unstable parcel of air continues to rise until it reaches an altitude where the surrounding air has a density and temperature similar to its own. In meteorology heat energy being added or removed. Simply the result of compressing the air or allowing it to expand.
