Which outcome occurs when a humid air parcel rises rapidly past its lifting condensation level?

A)Latent heat release increases buoyancy
B)Adiabatic cooling stabilizes air aloft
C)Entrainment reduces moist adiabatic lapse
D)Precipitation efficiency decreases sharply

💡 Explanation

Latent heat release increases buoyancy due to the phase transition – condensation – in water vapor, releasing energy. Therefore, the air parcel accelerates upward because continued warmth input, rather than other alternatives driven by differing atmospheric conditions.
