Solution

The correct condition for sub-adiabatic lapse rate is DALR < ELR. This means that the Dry Adiabatic Lapse Rate (DALR) is less than the Environmental Lapse Rate (ELR). In other words, the rate at which temperature decreases with altitude (DALR) is less than the rate at which temperature actually decreases with altitude in the environment (ELR). This condition is associated with stable atmospheric conditions.
