What is relative humidity?
It is the ratio of specific humidity
It is the indicator of moisture content in the atmosphere.
It implies maximum vapour pressure in the atmosphere.
It is present everywhere
Water vapour has several very important functional roles on our planet. These are
It redistributes heat energy on the Earth through latent heat energy exchange.
The condensation of water vapour creates precipitation that falls to the Earths surface providing needed fresh water for plants and animals.
It helps warm the Earths atmosphere through the greenhouse effect.
