The . traditional definition taught in basic meteorology classes . is . local in nature; namely, . the static stability is . determined . by . the local lapse rate. . . The local definition frequently fails in convective MLs, because the rise of thermals from near the surface or their descent from cloud top depends on their excess buoyancy and not on the ambient lapse rate.
