body temperature; ambient pressure; saturated w/water vapo BTPS
5cm~below the Carina. this point is called the ISOTHERMIC SATURATION BOUNDARY ISB BTPS is achieved ___
below this ISB temp & relative humidity remain ____ constant
actual content or wt of H2O(mg) that is present in a given volume of gas(L) written mg/L content is often substituted 4 this word absolute humidity
amount of water content that a gas is capable of holding at a given temp; as a gas is heated its capable of carrying more water vaopr humidity capacity AKA potential humidity
device used to directly measure relative humidity hygrometer
when absolute humidity ='s potential humidity then gas is ____ & RH is 100% fully saturated
