Se obtiene calculando la temperatura (°C) que alcanzará una parcela de aire que asciende de 850 a 500 hPa y restándola de la temperatura del aire a 500 hPa. Las tormentas eléctricas son tanto más probables cuanto más por debajo del valor umbral de +4°C está el índice. 1, record 9, Spanish, - %C3%ADndice%20de%20estabilidad%20de%20Showalter

Second carrier designation policy. Clear rules will govern the allocation of second designation opportunities. Assessment of applications for second designation for scheduled passenger services by a Canadian carrier, large or small, will be guided for market thresholds, as follows :-in country markets with at least 300, 000 one-way origin/destination passengers per year travelling by scheduled air service, second designations will be made.... Applications for designation in markets already served by two carriers will not be considered until markets have grown significantly beyond their current passenger level. The only exception will be the United States which is by far Canada's largest international market. Under the recently signed "open skies" agreement, any Canadian carrier will be permitted to serve any route to the United States.... In order to facilitate this policy, Canada will negotiate second designation rights in markets as they mature, whenever practical, and will seek agreement on the necessary capacity and frequency of service to give effect to such rights. As of the date of announcement of this policy, the following country markets meet the 300, 000 passenger threshold, thereby enabling second carrier designation : the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Hong Kong and Japan. 3, record 12, English, - designated%20air%20carrier
