Air cools with height at the environmental lapse rate. Rising air cools until it hits its dew point at the lifting condensation level — the cloud base — estimated by (T − Td)/8 km. The pressure falls with altitude following the barometric formula.

About this simulation
The full Lapse Rate tool models a jet-stream shift with the same numerics engineers and scientists use — running entirely client-side. Change any parameter and the result updates in real time, so you can build intuition, check a design, or teach the concept without spreadsheets or installs.
