Saturated Adiabatic Lapse RateThe rate of decline in the temperature of a rising parcel of air after it has reached saturation. This rate is less than the dry adiabatic lapse rate (9.8° Celsius per 1000 meters) because of the heat [..]

Saturated Adiabatic Lapse Ratethe rate of fall in air temperature by adiabatic change as saturated air gains altitude. Varies between 4 and 9蚓 per 1000m. is slower than the DALR as latent heat is released during condensation.

Saturated Adiabatic Lapse RateThe rate at which saturated air cools as it ascends through the atmosphere. Generally between 4 and 7 degrees Celsius per kilometre, about half that of dry air.

Saturated Adiabatic Lapse RateThe rate of decrease of temperature with height as saturated air is lifted with no gain or loss of heat from outside sources; varies with temperature, being greatest at low temperatures. See adiabatic [..]
