Air Pollution And Noise Pollution

  1. Elevation and temperature data for a place are tabulated below.

    Based on the above data, lapse rate can be referred as:
    1. Super-adiabatic
    2. Neutral
    3. Sub-adiabatic
    4. Inversion
Correct Option: A

Ambient lapse rate =
21.25 - 15.70
× 1000
(444 – 4)

= 12.6°C/km > 9.8ºC/km
When the ambient lapse rate exceeds the adiabatic lapse rate, the ambient lapse rate is said to be super adiabatic.
