psychrometera hygrometer would be useful!


Are temperature and dewpoint related?

Yes, temperature and dewpoint are related. Dewpoint is the temperature at which air becomes saturated with water vapor and begins to condense into liquid. When the temperature equals the dewpoint, the air is saturated and relative humidity is 100%.


What term refers to the temperature at which the relative humidity is 100?

That would be "dewpoint"...When the air temperature falls to the dewpoint (or dewpoint rises to the air temperature), then you have 100% relative humidity.


What instrument measures water vapor?

What is it called when temperature is saturated and condensation begins?

It is called the dewpoint.


What determines the capacity of holding water vapor in the air?

Dewpoint


What is the dewpoint when the dry-bulb temperature is 24 degrees celsius and the wet-bulb temperatrue is 15 degrees celsius?

The dewpoint in this case would be approximately 12 degrees Celsius.


What is the approximate dewpoint temperature of the dry-bulb temperature is 26 Celsius and the wet-bulb is 21 Celsius?

The approximate dewpoint temperature can be calculated using the difference between the dry-bulb and wet-bulb temperatures. In this case, the difference is 5 degrees Celsius. The dewpoint temperature is approximately 21 degrees Celsius.


What does mean if the dewpoint is 0C-10C?

A dewpoint temperature between 0°C and 10°C indicates that the air is relatively humid, but not excessively so. It means that the air is slightly moist but still comfortable.


What is meant by the term dewpoint''''?

The temperature to which air must be cooled to become saturated.


What relationship would you expect to find between the air temperature and dewpoint temperature at ground level if the area is covered by fog?

In areas covered by fog, the air temperature is typically close to the dewpoint temperature. This is because fog forms when the air temperature cools to the dewpoint temperature, causing water vapor in the air to condense into tiny water droplets that make up the fog.


Where can you find relative humidity levels for the US?

There aren't many. Relative humidity isn't usually of much interest to serious meteorologist. Stations report dewpoint; calculating RH is another step. Intellicast.com (see link) has national RH maps. I usually get my humidity information from dewpoint maps from weather.unisys.com. Contour plots of dewpoint (related link) are among of the most useful.
