Homework Statement
If the skin temperature and altitude are constant, and the lapse rate increases from 5.5˚C/km to 6.5˚C/km, the ground temperature:
A) increases
B) decreases
C) remains unchanged
D) is never constant
Homework Equations
lapse rate=-dT/dh
The Attempt at a Solution
I think it would decrease because the only way to change the lapse rate without changing the skin altitude and skin temperature is by decreasing the ground temperature.
