Assignment title: Information


on both sides with a peak of 3,000 meters (m) and that the initial parcel conditions include a temperature of 10 °Celsius and a lifting condensation level (LCL) of 1,000 m. Be sure to provide a written explanation of all your calculations.

Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:  Calculate parcel temperatures for all windward and lee-side levels and explain your calculations.

 What would happen to the parcel (size, Ta, relative humidity [RH]), and how would it change as it ascends the windward side and descends the lee side?

What would the parcel temperature be at 1,000 m on the windward side, at the peak, 1,000 m on the lee side, and at the lee base? Why would the temperatures be different at the same levels on each side of the mountain?
