Discussion
Which reservoir supplies the atmosphere with available potential energy?
Answer: A
Heating in the tropics and cooling at high latitudes continually creates the horizontal temperature gradient from which available potential energy derives, and that is the source term for the whole Lorenz cycle. Friction is the sink at the other end. Latent heat release is an important internal transfer rather than the ultimate source.
