Sentence examples for lapse rates from inspiring English sources

Environmental lapse rates are generated for July mean, maximum and minimum temperatures.

Minimum temperature lapse rates showed seasonal variation and mean values higher than those reported for temperate mountains.

According to the patent, microbursts have been closely associated with distinctive "temperature lapse rates" - rates at which atmospheric temperature changes with altitude.

And the small quantity of instability was also compensated for by very strong lapse rates — in other words, lots of upward acceleration right off the ground.

This model takes account of the effects of flow and heat losses, and the temperature lapse rates inside and outside the chimney.

The signs of the impacts, i.e., increase or decrease, depend on the static stability and total water mixing ratio lapse rates of the atmosphere.

Such a cause also contributes to the slightly greater vertical lapse rates of streamwater δ18O (−0.28 to −0.48‰/100 m) relative to the Himalayan front.

Here we develop and apply an approach for downscaling RCM output using local topographic lapse rates (empirically-estimated spatially and seasonally variable changes in climate variables with elevation).

Results reveal large uncertainty of observed datasets at monthly timescale, with systematic differences for temperature records, mainly due to different lapse rates.

We applied a δ18O/altitude gradient and well-established lapse rates to find that groundwater recharge predominantly occurs in the area's maximum rainfall zone.

The primary conclusions are that observed lapse rates in complex terrain differ markedly from the commonly assumed Γ = 6.5 K km−1, these lapse rates can be realistically resolved via dynamical downscaling, and use of constant Γ produces differences in E of order as large as 102 mm year−1.
