What are subadiabatic conditions? (ELR – Environmental Lapse Rate; DALR – Dry adiabatic lapse rate)

Correct Answer: ELR < DALR
In the case of subadiabatic conditions, the value of environmental lapse rate is lesser than the dry adiabatic lapse rate. This situation means that the air parcel is denser than the surroundings, so the dispersion occurs very slowly.
