Question
Which situations describe decreasing atmospheric
stability? (choose all that apply):
Environmental lapse rate decreasing with time
cold air from land moves over a warm lake
a layer of air is lifted over a mountain
Stratocumulus in the morning, towering Cumulus in the
afternoon
a North wind brings in cold air from Canada, lowering surface
temperatures
A south brings in warm, moist air near the surface, while a
north wind aloft brings in cool dry air.
