Discussion
Which quantity is read from the point where the parcel curve crosses the environment curve?
Answer: C
The parcel curve crosses the environment curve at the level of free convection on the way up and at the equilibrium level higher still, bounding the positive area between them. The lifting condensation level is where the parcel curve changes from a dry to a saturated adiabat rather than where it crosses the environment. Distinguishing the crossings from the kink is essential when computing convective energy. The quantity that varies and the quantity that does not are worth naming before any substitution is attempted.
