Dry Adiabatic Rate and the Saturated Adiabatic Rate
Determining temperature of a rising parcel of air can be calculated using the Dry Adiabatic Rate and the Saturated Adiabatic Rate . Please note that this phenomenon pertains to a moving parcel of air, and not a static parcel of air that we covered last week (average lapse rate). According to our text, the DAR is each 1000 feet and the SAR is each 1000 feet. Assume that condensation begins at a relative humidity
