Air can contain as much as 5% water vapor, more commonly ranging from 1-3%. The 1-5% range places water vapor as the third most common gas (which alters the other percentages accordingly).

What instruments measure air moisture?
A hygrometer measures the moisture content of the air. There are several different types, all of which measure something else which indicates the moisture content.
Air masses are identified on the basis of temperature and what?
moisture content
What is the art of measuring moisture content of air called?
psychrometry
How does wind direction affect moisture content?
Wind direction is the direction which the wind blows. If the wind direction is coming from an arid region, such as a desert, the air will be dry and moisture content will be low. If the wind direction is coming from an ocean, lake, or tropical area, the air will have a higher moisture content.

Is Humidity is a measure of the air's carbon dioxide?
No, it is a measure of its moisture content.
What is the moisture content of air measured as a percent of saturation is the?
relative humidity
How is moisture content and temperature of an air mass determined?
By The source region
How do you decrease air resistance?
Resitance of air varies based on: 1. Percentage content of moisture (higher the moisture, lesser the resistance) 2. Percentage content of suspended dust particles and conductivity of those suspended particles (higher the content, lesser the resistance)
