the radiative feedback arising from changes in how temperature falls with height, which in the tropics partly offsets water vapor feedback as the upper troposphere warms faster.

In climate science, lapse rate feedback refers to the radiative feedback arising from changes in how temperature falls with height, which in the tropics partly offsets water vapor feedback as the upper troposphere warms faster. This meaning comes from Soden (2006) in Journal of Climate.[1]
