Tottenham Hotspur reveal more about what the club's new north London stadium will look like.
Although the actual atmospheric lapse rate varies, under normal atmospheric conditions the average atmospheric lapse rate results in a temperature decrease of 6.4 Â°C/km (3.5 Â°F or 1.95 Â°C/1,000 ft) of altitude above ground level. The measurable lapse rate is affected by the moisture content of the air (humidity).he decrease of an atmospheric variable with height, the variable being temperature unless otherwise specified. In the lower regions of the atmosphere (up to altitudes of approximately 12,000 metres (39,000 ft), temperature decreases with altitude at a fairly uniform rate.
Image from the Comet Program. The atmosphere consists of 4 layers: the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere, and thermosphere. Figure A shows the placement of the different layers of the atmosphere and how the temperature changes with height as you go from the ground up to space.The troposphere is the lowest layer of the atmosphere.This is the layer where we live and where weather happens.igure A shows the placement of the different layers of the atmosphere and how the temperature changes with height as you go from the ground up to space.
