Convert the molar mass to before substitution:The often-used environmental value near is less steep because rising moist air can condense water vapor, releasing latent heat and offsetting some expansion cooling. A saturated parcel therefore follows a smaller-magnitude moist adiabatic lapse rate, which varies with temperature, pressure and water content. Real environmental profiles also reflect radiation, mixing and weather systems; is a representative profile value, not a universal parcel law.
