fill in the blanks for the air temperature and dew point at each height on the windward and leeward sides of the mountain. Assume that the wet adiabatic lapse rate is 6C / km. Also, notice that the height increments are different on the windward and leeward side. Please explain how you got the answers step by step.
fill in the blanks for the air temperature and dew point at each height on the windward and leeward sides of the mountain. Assume that the wet adiabatic lapse rate is 6C / km. Also, notice that the height increments are different on the windward and leeward side.
Please explain how you got the answers step by step.
Windward side of the mountain:
Height: 2500m ; Temp = C ; Dew Point = C
Height: 2000m ; Temp = C ; Dew Point = C
Height: 1500m ; Temp = C ; Dew Point = C
Height: 1000m ; Temp = C ; Dew Point = C
Height: 500m ; Temp = C ; Dew Point = C
Height: 0m ; Temp = 22C ; Dew Point = 10C
Leeward side of the mountain:
Height: 2000m ; Temp = C ; Dew Point = C
Height: 1000m ; Temp = C ; Dew Point = C
Height: 0m ; Temp = C ; Dew Point = C
