Record Title : Atmosphere Level of Free Convection Wrt Surface
CF Standard Name : atmosphere_level_of_free_convection_wrt_surface
Record Description : The level of free convection is the altitude where the temperature of the environment decreases faster than the moist adiabatic lapse rate of a saturated air parcel at the same level. It is calculated by lifting a parcel of air dry adiabatically from the surface to the LCL (lifting condensation level), then moist adiabatically until the parcel temperature is equal to the ambient temperature.
