  • The blue curve is from Lindal et al..
  • The green curve is from Bishop et al.
  • The dashed blue curve is an extrapolation of the 1987 Lindal et al. data using a constant lapse rate of 0.82 K/km.

SOS Children aims to make Wikipedia suitable for young learners. SOS Childrens Villages believes education is an important part of a child's life. That's why we ensure they receive nursery care as well as high-quality primary and secondary education. When they leave school, we support the children in our care as they progress to vocational training or higher education. Try to find out how you can help children in other countries on our web site.
