Physicists call this adiabatic heating.
In the descending part of the wave, those clouds will evaporate due to adiabatic heating, leading to the characteristic clouded and clear bands.
The air heats up from adiabatic heating during its descent.
In gas blending, high temperatures are easily produced, by adiabatic heating, simply by decanting high-pressure gas into lower pressure pipes or cylinders.
The air heats up due to adiabatic heating while being compressed during its descent.
The Brookings Effect is a meteorological phenomenon in which dry adiabatic heating increases the temperature of a mass of air as it travels down slope.
Occasionally a present-day author, especially when referring to history, writes of "adiabatic heating", though this is a contradiction in terms of present day physics.
In general, subsidence will dry out an air mass by adiabatic, or compressional, heating.
This particular effect has not yet been successfully used, but has been discussed, as both adiabatic and shock heating are documented phenomena in gases.
Subsidence will generally dry out an air mass by adiabatic, or compressional, heating.
