Discussion
Which limitation restricts the adiabatic method?
Answer: A
Latent heat release in a precipitating system violates the adiabatic assumption on which the method rests, and since precipitation accompanies most large-scale ascent the limitation bites hard. Radiative cooling is a smaller but persistent additional problem. The method uses temperature observations rather than dense wind data, works anywhere soundings exist, and gives a quantitative result. A limit that survives making every external component ideal is an intrinsic one, and worth knowing for that reason.
