A formal definition from the Glossary of Meteorology is: In general, a lapse rate is the negative of the rate of temperature change with altitude change, thus: where γ {\displaystyle \gamma } is the lapse rate given in units of temperature divided by units of altitude, T = temperature, and z = altitude.
