Equivalent potential temperature


The temperature a parcel of air would have if it is lifted until it became saturated, all water vapour is condensed out, and returned adiabatically (i.e., without transfer of heat or mass) to a pressure of 1000 millibars. Equivalent Potential Temperature, typically expressed in degrees Kelvin, is directly related to the amount of heat present in an [..]
