This is the temperature at which small spheres of dew will form on a smooth surface. As such it is a measure of relative humidity.
It is also used as a measure of the goodness of desiccant materials such as P2O5, and CaSO4. i.e. the lowest relative humidity to which this material will dehydrate.

What procces begins when a parcel of air reaches its dew point?
Condensation begins
How do you get the original teperature of perfectamundo in cyberchase?
the dew point is 65 and the regular temperature 70
Why does dew appear in early morning and not at noon?
the air capacity for holding water depends on temp'. the warmer it is the more water vapour it can hold. during the night air temp' drops to its lowest near dawn at which point the amout of water vapour in the air may exceed its reduced capacity (this point is called the dew point) and water vapour condences and forms dew.
What is the relationship between condensation and dew point?
Condensation and Dew are related because Dew is practically Condensation since Condensation is Gas to a liquid. Humid turns to liquid. For example a cold glass of water that is outside for a long time. When you come back out you will see droplets on the side of the cup.
What does a low dew point mean?
a low dew point means that air can hold less water vapor.
What is the term for the temperature at which ice changes to a liquid?
Dew point
Which term refers to the temperature to which air would have to be cooled to reach saturation?
It is the Dew point.
What is the dew point in a hurricane?
there is no dew point of a hurricane
How is dew point different from condensation?
the realationship between condensation and dew point is that condensation occurs when it reaches the dew point.
What is dew point in weather reports?
Dew point is the point when condensation forms
When air cools to a temperature at which is saturated the air has reached it's?
i think dew point.
Temperature to which air must be cooled to reach saturation?
The temperature to which air must be cooled to reach saturation is called the dew point.
A sentence for dew point?
The dew point controlled the temperature of the air.
When is dew point reached?
Dew point is reached when the temperature is low.
Why isn't dew point always the same?
The dew point is a measure of the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere. As the temperature gets closer to the dew point, the humidity rises. When the temperature finally drops to the dew point (100% humidity), the the atmosphere is completely saturated with water, and it will start to rain (or snow, if the dew point is below freezing). Since the atmosphere is completely saturated when the temperature is at the dew point, it cannot go below the dew point.
What is low and high dew point?
Low Dew Point is when the moisture in the air is dry. High Dew Point is when the moisture in the air is moist.
