La pressione (in blu) diminuisce in maniera pressoch&eacute; esponenziale a causa della attrazione gravitazionale. In rosso &egrave; mostrato invece il profilo di temperatura, che generalmente diminuisce con la quota, come conseguenza dell&rsquo;equilibrio energetico dell&rsquo;atmosfera.<span style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\">&nbsp; <\/span>In verde, la pressione di vapore saturo diminuisce al diminuire della temperatura e quindi della quota.

Salendo di quota la pressione atmosferica diminuisce, e le masse d&rsquo;aria sperimentano una espansione adiabatica secca, che ne fa diminuire la temperatura. Se non si verificano fenomeni di condensazione, il gradiente termico associato a questo tipo di moto &egrave; di circa 10 K\/km (cio&egrave; 1 grado ogni 100 m).Cio&egrave; l&rsquo;aria a 3 km di quota sar&agrave; 30 &deg;C pi&ugrave; fredda di quella al livello del mare. Una bella dimostrazione di questo fatto &egrave; data nel libro &lsquo;Termodinamica&rsquo; di Enrico Fermi.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Cosa succede quando l&rsquo;aria sale? Al diminuire della temperatura, la quantit&agrave; di acqua ammissibile in forma di vapore all&rsquo;interno di una certa massa d&rsquo;aria diminuisce. La pressione di vapore saturo <span style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\">&nbsp;<\/span>rappresenta la massima pressione (cio&egrave; concentrazione) che pu&ograve; esercitare il vapore acqueo senza condensare, ed &egrave; calcolabile <span style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\">&nbsp;<\/span>dall&rsquo;equazione di Clausius-Clapeyron. Senza entrare nei dettagli, basti sapere che varie equazioni approssimate sono utilizzate; una delle pi&ugrave; diffuse &egrave; quella di Bolton (1980):<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">e<sub>s <\/sub>= 6.112 e<sup>17.67 * T \/ (T+243.5) <\/sup><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">con T in [&deg;C] ed e<sub>s <\/sub>in [hPa].<span style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\">&nbsp; <\/span>La quantit&agrave; e<sub>s<\/sub> &egrave; la pressione di vapore saturo rispetto all&rsquo;acqua liquida, e L&rsquo;andamento di questa equazione &egrave; mostrato in figura 2.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"mso-fareast-language:IT;mso-no-proof:yes\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"373\" height=\"443\" src=\"\/spaw\/image\/fisica\/pressione-vapor-saturo.png\" alt=\"\" \/><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Figura 2. Pressione di vapore saturo (rispetto all&rsquo;acqua liquida) in funzione della temperatura.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Nella pratica, l&rsquo;umidit&agrave; relativa di una massa d&rsquo;aria si esprime approssimatamente come il rapporto tra la pressione di vapore e la pressione di vapor saturo (che dipende dalla temperatura). Quando la pressione parziale del vapore acqueo (che rappresenta la sua concentrazione) raggiunge la pressione di vapore saturo, l&rsquo;umidit&agrave; relativa giunge ad 1 (cio&egrave; 100%), e l&rsquo;acqua condensa formando le goccioline di nube.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">C&rsquo;&egrave; in realt&agrave; da osservare che il meccanismo di formazione delle gocce &egrave; tutt&rsquo;altro che semplice, e che generalmente queste si formano a partire dalle particelle di pulviscolo atmosferico, poich&eacute; questo processo, detto nucleazione eterogenea, &egrave; termodinamicamente molto pi&ugrave; favorevole della nucleazione omogenea. Quanto detto vale del tutto in generale, e descrive la formazione di qualsiasi tipo di nube, anche se le cause della saturazione dell&rsquo;aria possono essere diverse.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Torniamo ancora alla montagna. Nel versante sottovento le linee di flusso ridiscendono i fianchi della montagna <span style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\">&nbsp;<\/span>e, a causa della condensazione dell&rsquo;acqua alla sommit&agrave;, il vento discendente &egrave; molto secco e relativamente caldo a causa della compressione adiabatica secca. <span style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">A seconda delle condizioni termodinamiche delle masse d&rsquo;aria interessate, questo meccanismo pu&ograve; poi innescare altre pittoresche manifestazioni visibili nel versante sottovento.<span style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\">&nbsp; <\/span>Si possono infatti formare onde stazionarie con nubi (dette a rotore, visibili in basso nella figura 1) in strisce regolari per molti chilometri oltre la fine dei rilievi.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Questi fenomeni accadono anche a grande scala, ove occorre per&ograve; considerare anche altri fenomeni, come la forza di Coriolis. Grazie alla conservazione della vorticit&agrave; potenziale, meccanismi di questo genere spiegano la formazione delle Onde di Rossby a scala planetaria, e quindi la presenza continua di cicloni ed anticicloni (come quelli dell&rsquo;Islanda e delle Azzorre, rispettivamente)!<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Se le masse d&rsquo;aria che incontrano la montagna sono molto umide, questo meccanismo pu&ograve; portare alla formazione di nembi ed abbondanti precipitazioni sul versante sopravvento del rilievo, <span style=\"mso-spacerun:yes\">&nbsp;<\/span>rendendo invece secco il versante opposto. Ci&ograve; si verifica ad esempio in Nuova Zelanda, ove la catena montuosa che costituisce l&rsquo;isola del Sud intercetta le correnti umide provenienti da Ovest. Il sollevamento delle masse d&rsquo;aria genera quindi abbondanti precipitazioni sulla costa Ovest, ornata da una foresta sub tropicale, lasciando molto pi&ugrave; secca la costa Est.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Per conti e approfondimenti si possono consultare le dispense del corso di fisica dell&rsquo;atmosfera dell&rsquo;universit&agrave; la Sapienza: <a href=\"http:\/\/g24ux.phys.uniroma1.it\/Didattica.htm\">http:\/\/g24ux.phys.uniroma1.it\/Didattica.htm<\/a> (in particolare le sezioni Termodinamica e Microfisica).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":150,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[53],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3356","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-termodinamica"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vialattea.net\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3356","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vialattea.net\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vialattea.net\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vialattea.net\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/150"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vialattea.net\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3356"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.vialattea.net\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3356\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vialattea.net\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3356"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vialattea.net\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3356"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vialattea.net\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3356"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
