A parcel of air with an initial temperature of 35°C begins to rise in Location B. The LCL of the parcel is 2000 meters. With a red (or labeled) line, carefully draw the temperature decrease of this parcel of air as it rises to 5000 meters. Be sure to consider the LCL, and the DAR and SAR.

(b) Does the stability of this parcel change with increased elevation? If so, at what
elevation does this change occur?
(c) How would the pattern of stability below 5000 meters be different if the lifting
condensation level was not reached until 4500 meters?
