In
a shallow layer near the ground, it is possible for extremely high lapse rates to develop on a sunny day.
This means that as the dense cold air flows towards the low spot and pools there the influence of the large scale wind decreases to zero in
a shallow layer near the surface.
Also the sharp increase is more evident in the whole layer 0 - 1800 m than in
the shallow layers near the surface, but note that 50 % coverage was achieved for the layer 900-1800 m only since 2005.

layer of
shallow, stagnant air acts like a lid, concentrating heat
near the surface, researchers report today (Feb. 2) in the journal Nature Geoscience.
Nonetheless, up to 50
layers of natural gas can occur between the surface and deep shale formations, and methane from these
shallow deposits has intruded on groundwater
near fracking sites.
