Would you expect polar air to have high or low humidity?
low
Is the humidity high or low in a continental polar air mass?
high pressure
Why polar air described as dry when the relative humidity of that air is very high?
Temperature of polar is such low and much closer to the dew point, so the relative humidity is high. But low dew point let little water vapor be hold by the air, so it is dry.
Why is the cold air described as dry when the relative humidity of that air is very high?
Temperature of polar is such low and much closer to the dew point, so the relative humidity is high. But low dew point let little water vapor be hold by the air, so it is dry.
Do polar surface currents bring high or low temperatures?
high pressure region I Think i wrote a paper on it!

What air mass is associated with low relative humidity and high air temperature?
the answer is continental tropical

Why is cold polar air described as dry when the relative humidity of that air is very high?
The polar air has a high relative humidity due to the temperature of the polar region being close to the dew point temperature. The closer the dew point temperature is to the surrounding temperature, the higher is the relative humidity. The air in the polar region is considered dry as the dew point temperature is low. Low dew point indicates low water vapor content. So since the dew point in the north pole is low, it has a low water vapor content in the air, resulting in it being dry.

Why is there no humidity in the polar areas?
Actually there is some but not much. Humidity is the water content held as gas within the air. Cold air can't hold anywhere near as much moisture as warm air. Since the polar regions are cold the absolute humidity is low. Also ice evaporates more slowly than liquid water so the air does not quickly gain moisture if it is warmed a bit.
Does a low air pressure mass have more humidity?
Yes a low air pressure mass has more humidity.
What does low humidity mean?
Low humidity means that there is a low amount of moisture in the air Hope I helped!
What is air mass with high humidity?
It's when air in a region is very moist (humidity is high)
Define low humidity?
High humidity means atmospheric air is saturated with more water vapour at a given temperature. Low humidity means less amount of water vapour in atmospheric air at a given temperature.
