QUESTION 14: During the day, the valley floor gets warm and this warm air rises and flows up the slopes of the mountain.
Also, during the night, denser cool air sinks and moves down the slope of the mountain.
Therefore, the given statement is false.
QUESTION 15: Temperature lapse rate - rate of decrease in air temperature with elevation.
Lifted condensation level - it's a level at which an air parcel become saturated i .e the relative humidity of an air parcel will reach 100% . When the relative humidity reaches 100%, the capacity of an air parcel to hold moisture is full, the moisture will condense if the air is cooled down more.
After a parcel of air passes the lifted condensation level (LCL) , it become saturated and start to cool down at a slower rate.
This, the given statement is true.

The adiabatic process uses specific numbers, or rates, to
decrease a parcel’s temperature and dew point temperature. Those
rates are:
- Unsaturated air will decrease by 10 deg C for every 1
kilometer (km) of lift. This is called the dry adiabatic lapse
rate.
- Saturated air will decrease by 6 deg C for every km of lift.
This is called the moist adiabatic lapse rate.
- The parcel’s dew point temperature will decrease by 2 deg C
for every...
Will someone please check my work? I cannot seem to post the map that is in the workbook.Assume that a parcel of air is forcd to rise up and over a 4000 meter high mountain.The initial temp of the parcel at sea level is 30*c, and the LCL of the parcel is 2000 meters. The DAR is 10*c/1000m and the SAR is 6*c/1000m. Assume that condensation begins at 100% relative humidity and that no evaporation takes place as the parcel...
