What is Measure of the water vapor in the air?
humidityHumidity.
Explain why it is difficult to include water vapor in a graph that shows the percentages of various gases in the atmosphere?
The amount of water vapor in the air varies considerably depending on climate and weather. In a desert water vapor may account for a tiny fraction of a percent of the air. In a tropical rainforest during a storm water vapor may account for as much as 4% of the air.
What is the amount of water held in the air?
The amount of water vapor in the air varies depending on present weather conditions. It can range from almost nothing to nearly 5% of the air's total volume.
Where is most of the water on Mars?
The majority of the water on the planet Mars is frozen deep beneath the surface. A small amount of water exists in the atmosphere in the form of vapor.
How does water vapor enter the air?
Water vapor enters the air as water at the surface evaporates or as plants transpire water vapor from their leaves.
What is measure of the amount of water vapor content of the air?
clouds
Is a measure of the amount of the water vapor content of the air?
humidity
Is a measure of the amount of water vapor content of air?
humidity
What does a hygometer measure?
it measures the water vapor content of air or the humidity.
A measure of the amount of water vapor in the air is?
Humidity:)
Is a measure of the amount of water vapor in the air?
Humidity:)
What relative humidity is a comparison between?
The current water vapor content of the air (in question) AND the maximum amount of water vapor that it could carry.
Is used to measure the amount of the water vapor in the atmosphere?
barometer/hygrometer/thermometer
What is the differences between relative humidity and humidity?
Humidity is the amount of water vapor present in the air. The relative humidity is the measure of the amount of water vapor present in the air compared to the amount needed for saturation.
What is a measure of the amount of water vapor that air is holding compared the amount that it can hold at a specific temperature?
relative humidity
What weather factor is a hygrometer use for?
Hygrometers measure the relative humidity of the atmosphere. The relative humidity is the ratio between the present water vapor content of the air and the maximum amount of water vapor the air could hold at the same temperature. Cool air will not hold as much water vapor as warmer air. With the same amount of moisture in the air, an increase in temperature decreases the relative humidity, and if the temperature drops, relative humidity increases.
What does relative humidity measure?
Relative Humidity is actually measure the amount of moisture in the air. It depends on how much of the air has water in it. Let's say that the RH is 50%, that means 50% of the air has water in it.
