Which practical use has the wet bulb potential temperature?
Answer: D
Wet bulb potential temperature is conserved for both dry and saturated adiabatic motion, like equivalent potential temperature, but takes values between about 0 and 24 degrees Celsius which are much easier to interpret. British forecasting practice uses it routinely for air mass classification. A psychrometer measures the wet bulb temperature, from which the potential form must still be computed. The shared properties explain why these belong to one family, and the differences explain why more than one exists.
