Discussion
Which motion do adiabatic parcels perform relative to those surfaces?
Answer: D
Conservation of potential temperature confines an adiabatic parcel to its isentropic surface, so its vertical motion is determined entirely by the slope of that surface and the horizontal wind along it. This is why isentropic analysis makes vertical motion visible as flow across the height contours of the surface. Diabatic processes are what allow a parcel to change surfaces. Checking the units of each quantity catches a wrong formula before the arithmetic begins.
