What is absolute stability? (ELR – Environmental Lapse Rate; DALR – Dry adiabatic lapse rate; WALR – Wet adiabatic lapse rate)

What is absolute stability? (ELR – Environmental Lapse Rate; DALR – Dry adiabatic lapse rate; WALR – Wet adiabatic lapse rate) Correct Answer ELR < WALR

When the environmental lapse rate is lesser than the wet adiabatic lapse rate, the condition is of absolute stability. The air pollutants do not disperse in the case of atmospheric stability at all.
