It is commonly found only at the ground on sunny days and can be maintained only if the rate of heat transfer to the air is great enough to offset the turbulent mixing it is enhancing. Meteorologists describe a layer as having neutral (static) stability , or simply being neutral, if its lapse rate is the same as the DALR;

The author begins with dispersion in the atmospheric boundary layer, then considers deposition before looking at examples of models. Since the boundary layer is the lowest part of the atmosphere nearest the ground, it is strongly influenced by temperature changes at the surface, and by the drag on the flow;

The most likely resolution of the “lapse-rate conundrum,” in my view anyway, is that both upper-air records gave the wrong result. ... There have been a number of articles about the role of smoke in heating the layer below the tropical inversion. Inversions complicate the analysis of the lapse rate, especially when smoke...

For the earth, this layer is considered to be roughly the lowest one or two kilometers of the atmosphere. It is within this layer that temperatures are most strongly affected by daytime insolation and nighttime radiational cooling, ... 1) A simple representation of the mean lapse rate within a layer of the atmosphere,
