What is Adiabatic Lapse Rate Calculator?

Calculates temperature change with altitude for dry and moist adiabatic processes in atmospheric science.

Adiabatic Lapse Rate Calculator Formula / Method

Γd=g/cp≈9.8°C/kmΓ_d = g/c_p ≈ 9.8°C/km

Γ_m ≈ 6°C/km

Th=T0−ΓhT_h = T_0 − Γh
hLCL=(T−Td)/8h_LCL = (T − T_d)/8

Adiabatic Lapse Rate Calculator Worked Example

T0=30°C,Td=14°C,rise=3kmdryT0=30°C, Td=14°C, rise=3km dry
T3km=30−9.8×3=0.6°CT_3km=30−9.8×3=0.6°C
hLCL=(30−14)/8=2kmh_LCL=(30−14)/8=2km
