Physical Geography Laboratory Manual 4000 m -7°C 3000 m -1°C 3°C 13°C 2000 m 23°C 15°C 1000 m 33°C 25°C Sea level Figure 21-1: Temperature changes in a hypothetical parcel of air passing over a 4000-meter-high mountain (assuming no evaporation as the air descends down the lee side of the mountain). The lifting condensation level of the parcel is 2000 meters, the dry adiabatic rate is 10°C/1000 m, and the saturated adiabatic rate is 6°c/1000 m. Notice that because of the release of latent heat during condensation on the windward side of the mountain, by the time the air has descended back down to sea level on the leeward side, it is warmer than before it started up the windward side.
