On average, the temperature drops about 0.6 degrees Celsius for every 100 meters increase in altitude. This decrease in temperature with elevation is known as the environmental lapse rate. However, the actual rate can vary due to factors such as local weather conditions and geography.

What type of cloud has the lowest condensation level?

An approximate value can be calculated by the following expression: Condensation Level (in feet) = [Surface Temperature(F) - Surface Dew Point Temperature(F)]*(1000/2.2) or Condensation Level (in meters) = [Surface Temperature(C) - Surface Dew Point Temperature(C)]*(200) Solution: Dry Adiabatic Lapse Rate (DALR) => -5.5 F/1000 ft of altitude (-1C/100m) Saturated Adiabatic Lapse Rate (SALR) => -3.3F/1000ft of altitude (-0.5C/100m) The SALR is not linear and varies with the initial surface temperature The Level of Condensation will occur at the altitude where the Air Temperature is equal to the Dew Point temperature at that altitude. Setting the two equations equal to each other will give an approximate value. TA: temperature at altitude; TS: temperature at surface; DA: dew point temperature at altitude; DS: dew point temperature at surface TA = TS-(5.5F/1000ft)*altitude or TS-(1C/100m)*altitude DA = DS-(3.3F/1000ft)*altitude or DS-(0.5C/100m)*altitude Setting TA = DA and rearranging quantities gives the equations given above The level of condensation derived by the above method will only yield an approximate value.


Why potential temperature increases with height?

Potential temperature increases with height in a stable atmosphere because as air parcels rise, they expand and cool due to decreasing pressure. However, since no heat is exchanged with the surroundings, the parcel maintains its potential temperature, which increases with height. This process is known as adiabatic heating.


Does temperature go down as altitude increases?

Yes, on average, temperature decreases by 6.5°C per kilometer as altitude increases in the troposphere. This is known as the normal lapse rate. However, in some regions, temperature inversions can cause temperatures to increase with altitude.
