As Warm Air Expands It Rises at Layla Nankervis blog

As Warm Air Expands It Rises. So, air moves around in a biiiig circle: Elevation not only influences temperature but also precipitation. As it rises, it expands and cools. Hot air rises, and is replaced by cold air. Water vapor condenses out of the cool air to form a cloud. When warm air rises, it undergoes expansion and cools as it ascends to higher altitudes. When the sun warms the earth, warm air rises into the atmosphere. While it is correctly understood that warm air rises because it is lighter than cooler air, the density difference alone doesn’t explain why it. The hot air does rise, but it gives up its heat as it rises. Long li, a professor in the department of earth and atmospheric sciences at the university of alberta explains that as a warm air mass rises up a mountainside, the resulting pressure drop. As the air temperature decreases, its ability to hold. When this cooler, moist air reaches the dew point, moisture condenses into clouds and precipitation. The warm air gets cold, and moves, and eventually falls again. That's because there's less air pressure at higher altitudes, and lower pressure makes that. Thus, if a parcel of air from the surface rises (because of wind flowing up the side of a mountain, for example), it undergoes an.

As warm air rises, it expands and cools in the process due to lower air pressure at higher elevations.
