What is the relative humidity of the air?

The relative humidity of the air is a measure of how much moisture is in the air compared to the maximum amount of moisture the air can hold at a given temperature. It is expressed as a percentage and indicates how close the air is to reaching its saturation point.


Why are tropical rainforests humidity?

because they are close to the equator this means they are hot


What does humidity tell if measured?

How close to 100 % saturation of moisture in the air that it actually is.


What does 'air is completely saturated' means?

the humidity is very high..close to 100%


How does being close to a large body of water change summer weather?

relative humidity?


What happens when the wet and dry bulb thermometers are close together?

The relative humidity is higher.


What happens when temperature and dew point are equal?

This is the point at which saturation occurs. This is also signifies 100% relative humidity. If you want to find out how close it is to reaching saturation, all you have to do is find actual vapor pressure (found by temp.), and saturation vapor pressure(found by dewpoint). You can look online for conversion charts. Once you find them, plug them into this equation: actual vapor pressure/saturation vapor pressure x 100%. Your answer should be a percentage. If it's around 60-80 percent, then you know it's cold, and there is high humidity; thus, saturation is likely to occur. If it's around 10-30 percent, then you know the humidity is low and saturation is not likely occur. Warm weather= low humidity Cold weather= high humidity.


Is humidity high or low if the wet and dry bulb readings are close to each other?

The humidity is high. The air is saturated, so the water in the wet bulb is not evaporating and cooling the bulb.


Can there be relative humidity when the temperature is well below the freezing point?

Yes. Below the freezing point the relative humidity will indicate how close the moisture in the air is to depositing and forming frost or snow.
