Relative humidity has been used to describe moisture levels in the atmosphere for so long that it has become the most common (though often misunderstood) moisture measurement. And there is truth to ...
I comment from time to time on how the dew point temperature can be a good guide as to what the coming overnight low temperature might be. A reader wonders if there is such a relationship for relative ...
Editor’s note: The KOIN 6 Weather team is presenting weather and science lessons to help serve our teachers and students. Click here for more lessons. PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – I would like to preface ...
Air pollution is not taken into consideration. Actually, relative humidity is not directly measured. The air temperature and dew point temperature are measured, and the relative humidity is then ...
GREENSBORO, N.C. — Two common weather terms you'll hear many times in the warmer part of the year are "dew point" and "relative humidity". While both relate to moisture in the air and the "stickiness" ...
My high school had a weather station on the roof so earth-science students could make measurements each morning. We climbed up a ladder in the janitor's closet, went through a hatch and out onto the ...
A relative humidity meter can be built using a sensor with a capacitive response and a PIC microcontroller (MCU), as shown in the figure. The capacitance range of the sensor, the HS1101 from Humirel ...
Engineers now have two multifunctional transmitters at their fingertips for measuring relative humidity and temperature. The HT737 is a digital unit that measures ...
Across much of the world, hotter days are no longer arriving alone. The air itself is changing, sometimes turning from dry ...
Wondering what humidity is comfortable? While we often give a great deal of thought to heating our homes in the winter and cooling them down in the summer, we may not realize just how crucial ...
