Rate of decrease of temperature with increasing height.  5, fiche 1, Anglais, - temperature%20lapse%20rate

Lapse Temperature Gradient. This condition normally exists on a clear day when the middle and low clouds cover less than 30 percent of the sky and when the wind speed is less than 5 km/h. It is the least favorable condition for the enemy to employ chemical or biological agents. When a lapse condition exists, area coverage without diffusion will be enhanced with a steady low wind speed of 3 to 7 km/h.  4, fiche 1, Anglais, - temperature%20lapse%20rate

Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS

In common usage, the term "temperature gradient" is reserved for temperature change with horizontal distance and "temperature lapse rate" for change of temperature with height.  3, fiche 1, Anglais, - temperature%20lapse%20rate

Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS

The term "lapse" may also signify, as in "humidity lapse rate", the rate of decrease with height of certain meteorological variables other than temperature.  3, fiche 1, Anglais, - temperature%20lapse%20rate
