Environmental Lapse Rate for High‐Resolution Land Surface Downscaling: An Application to ERA5

Abstract In this study we derive the environmental lapse rate (ELR) from vertical profiles of temperature in the lower troposphere, applying it to downscale air temperature of the new European Centre For Medium‐Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) reanalysis ERA5, which replaces ERA‐Interim (ERAI). We fo...
