Source : Defence Science Journal ; Vol:27(4) ; 1977 ; pp 197-202
Subject : 551.58 Climatology
Keywords : Lapse parameter;Precipitable water vapour ;Upper air data
Abstract : The theoretical relationship between precipitate water vapour in the atmosphere & surface humidity has been investigated. By introducing the concept of a lapse parameter alpha, a method has been devised for estimation of precipitable water vapour. Results have been compared for six Indian Stations for which upper air data were available.

Subject : 551.58 Climatology
Keywords : Lapse Parameter ;Latitude and Season
Abstract : An analysis has been undertaken to ascertain the accuracy of the conventional summation method for computing precipitable water in the atmosphere from upper air data. Errors have been found to depend on lapse parameter, a which known to vary with latitude and season.
