"rate" in inglés with examples - Collocation dictionary inglés
- Another meteorological factor affecting the valley's climate is the "lapse rate."
- Each layer has a different lapse rate, defining the rate of change in temperature with height.
- Since the slopes are the two lapse rates, their difference is about 8 K/km.
- The measurable lapse rate is affected by the moisture content of the air (humidity).
- The change in temperature with height (lapse rate) is relatively small from near the surface through a deep layer.
- This effect means the lapse rate during the day on Mount Kenya is lower than average for dry air.
- At night the lapse rate is again lower than average for dry air due to the katabatic winds from the glaciers.
- His early work highlighted the importance of the lapse rate in determining the climate's response to radiation changes.
- Different lapse rates within dry and moist air lead to instability.
- More generally, the actual rate at which the temperature drops with altitude is called the environmental lapse rate.
