<div>If you have temperature and height data on pressure surfaces, you can calculate lapse rate as
<br>
<br>
</div>
'define lapserate = (tmpprs(z+1)-tmpprs(z-1)) / (hgtprs(z+1) - hgtprs(z-1))'<br>
<br>
</div>
or if you're looking for the lapse rate between a specific set of pressure levels<br>
<br>
'define dtdz75 = (tmpprs(lev=500) - tmpprs(lev=700)) / (hgtprs(lev=500) - hgtprs(lev=700))'<br>
<br>
</div>
for instance, for the 700-500 mb layer.<br>

<br>
Does anyone know of a way to calculate lapse rate? <br>
<br>
I realize that lapse rate is simply the change in temperature with height but, I've been having trouble putting to the concept into a working piece of a script.<br>
