⛅ Rising Air Parcel Lab: Lifting Condensation Level, Lapse Rates, CAPE and Cumulus Growth

Heat a patch of ground and watch a parcel of moist air rise: it cools dry-adiabatically, condenses at the lifting condensation level, then follows the moist adiabat while the cloud grows as far as the equilibrium level. Change surface temperature, dew point, lapse rate and an inversion to see CAPE, CIN, cloud base, cloud top and updraft speed.
