END: condensation: release of latent heat Fig. 12.4a Fig. 12.4a P: air pressure SIO15-SS1 20: Topic 16: Winds and Weather

END: evaporation: absorption of l. heat jet cabin pressure ~ 2000 m -> bottle compressed upon landing at sea level Fig. 12.4b SIO15-SS1 20: Topic 16: Winds and Weather

ri risi sing air r (a (adiabatic c co cooling) ) likely to lose moisture; si sinki king air r (a (adiabatic c heating) likely to absorb moisture; condensation and evaporation are no longer adiabatic! Fig. 12.4b Fig. 12.4b SIO15-SS1 20: Topic 16: Winds and Weather
