How does a change in temperature affect relative humidity and specific humidity?

When the temperature of air is cooled or reduced the relative humidity (RH) increases. The moisture content of the air remains the same until the RH rises to the point of 100% saturation and condensation occurs.

What factors affect weathering?
temperature,pressure,humidity,moisture
Is elevation is a factor that affect air pressure?
temperature and humidity
What is the difference between absolute and specific humidity?
Relative humidity is a ratio of the actual water vapor content of the air to the amount of water vapor needed to reach saturation. Absolute humidity is the mass of water vapor contained in a given volume of air.
Does snow affect humidity?
yes snow do affect humidity
How does the temperature of the air affect the amount of humidity that you feel How does the air's temperature also influence the form of precipitation that falls?
The higher the temperature of the air the higher the amount of humidity you feel. Also the colder the airs temperature it can cause precipitation such as hail, snow, and sleet rather then just rain.
What factors affect the relative humidity?
Just the quantum of moisture in the atmosphere, and its temperature.

What is relationship between relative humidity and temperature?
There is an effect if you're a living being and trying to cool down. Humidity does not change the temperature. It will make it difficult for your body to cool down, so it 'feels' hotter with humidity. Sweat has to evaporate for your body to cool down. It's harder to evaporate when the air is already saturated with water (ie high humidity).
What is the effect of humidity and temperature on radioactive elements?
Temperature and humidity do not affect radioactive decay.
How does relative humidity affect how a person feels when he is outside?
someway
How does temperature affect humidity?
Temperature does have a direct effect on relative humidity. ( just to make the water vapor move faster when war and slower when cool). As temperature goes up, the ability of the air to hold more gas goes up, so relative humidity goes down (unless more water vapor is being added). very good answer if you don't trust it. i got an A on a take home test with this answer Temperature affects humidity when they take place in the Dew point when water vapour changes to liquid. At this temperature humidity is high. The higher the temp, the more water vapor can be carried in air. Thus if you heat air (as is done in the winter) the relative humidity drops ... the air seems dryer even though the total amount of water vapor is unchanged.
What will affect the rate at which a swimming suit dries?
The temperature will affect it. So will the humidity.
Does air temperature affect humidity?
How does temperature affect humity? The mount of water vapor that air can hold depends on the temperature of the air.
What factors affect weathering?
temperature,pressure,humidity,moisture
How does temperature and pressure affect humidity?
because of the hard work
What is the affect of cooling on humidity ratio?
Cooler air cannot hold as much water vapor as the same volume of warmer air, so as the air temperature drops, the relative humidity increases, even when the amount of water vapor in a certain volume of air, or absolute humidity, remains unchanged. If the relative humidity reaches 100%, the air has all the water vapor that it is able to hold. If the temperature continues to drop beyond that point, the excess moisture in the air condenses as dew or frost.
