A radiosonde balloon is used to make vertical measurements of atmospheric conditions. At the surface, temp = 15 C.
At 2km, temp= 5 C.
What is the environmental lapse rate?What is the environmental lapse rate to this problem?A lapse rate is the changed sign derivative of the temperature with respect to height.
- dT / dz
For this problem its as simple as change in temperature over change in height.
- 鈭員 / 鈭唞 = - (5掳C - 15掳C) / 2 km = 10掳C / 2 km = 5 掳C/km
