The saturated adiabatic lapse rate (about 0.6°C per 100m) is less than the dry adiabatic lapse rate (about 1°C per 100m). This is because when air is saturated, condensation releases latent heat, which partially offsets the cooling.
Explanation:
Nitrogen is not a greenhouse gas. It makes up about 78% of the atmosphere but does not absorb infrared radiation. Carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide are significant greenhouse gases.
Explanation:
The lowest atmospheric pressure is recorded during the monsoon season when low-pressure systems (monsoon trough) develop over the subcontinent.
