The amount of moisture air can hold increases as the temperature of the air gets?
warmer
How is psychrometer used in a sentence?
Its used to measure the amount of moisture in the air.
If air cools what happens to the amount of moisture that the air can hold?
It decreases. As air cools, mist, then clouds, then rain / snow forms... as the moisture is displaced.
What is the difference between dew point and precipitation?
The relative humidity is a ratio of the amount of water in a given air over the amount of water that could be held in that same parcel of air. This number will vary as the temperature rises and falls as warmer air can hold more water than cooler air.
Why does water stick to the outside of a cup when it's hot?
Relative humidity is the ratio of the amount of water air is holding to the amount of water it can hold. The warmer air is, the more water it can hold. Therefore, as air temperature drops, relative humidity increases, even when no additional moisture is being added to the air. If the temperature continues to drop after the relative humidity reaches 100%, the excess moisture gets condensed out of the air. That is why dew forms during the night. The cold cup of water cools the air around it by conduction, so that cooler layer of air in contact with the cup loses its ability to hold its moisture, and the excess moisture condenses onto the cup.

Does cutting down trees reduce the amount of moisture in the air?
