adiabatic lapse rate

中文含义：绝热递减率

英语词性：noun

美式发音：[ˌædiəˈbætɪk ˈlæps reɪt]

同义词：dry adiabatic lapse rate, moist adiabatic lapse rate

易混淆单词：adiabatic cooling rate, adiabatic process

双语例句：

1. The adiabatic lapse rate of the atmosphere is the rate at which temperature falls as altitude increases. (大气绝热递减率是指温度随着海拔的升高而降低的速率。)

2. The moist adiabatic lapse rate is always less than the dry adiabatic lapse rate due to the release of latent heat when water vapor condenses. (由于水汽凝结释放了潜热，使得湿绝热递减率始终小于干绝热递减率。)
