Northern Nut Growers Association Incorporated 39th Annual Report at Norris, Tenn. September 13-15 1948 But high relative humidity and wind—even a light breeze—give the same degree of cold a penetrating feeling of chill which may be unbearable. Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 6, Slice 5 "Clervaux" to "Cockade" Besides water to drink, they require an atmosphere saturated with moisture, like that of their native island, the relative humidity being about seventy on the Hygrodeik scale. The Atlantic Monthly, Volume 18, No. 106, August, 1866 To find the relative humidity by use of wet-and-dry-bulb hygrometer or psychrometer: Place the instrument in a strong circulation of air, or wave it to and fro.

Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 6, Slice 5 "Clervaux" to "Cockade" As Forster slept that early summer night, weathermen across the world were marking their weather maps with thousands of observations—feathery wind arrows, temperatures, barometric pressures and relative humidities. Warning from the Stars The horizontal line passing through this intersection will give the relative humidity. Seasoning of Wood Humidity.—The relative humidity of the air, that is the amount of moisture it contains short of complete saturation which is represented by 100, is, at 9 A.M., Hertfordshire Normal conditions are when the temperature and relative humidity of the air decrease with an increase in altitude. The Report on Unidentified Flying Objects Physiological Effects of Heat and Humidity.—Tropical heat is associated with high relative humidity except over deserts and in dry seasons. Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 6, Slice 5 "Clervaux" to "Cockade" Weather Bureau should, in the hands of an expert, give results making possible measurements accurate to two or three per cent. of relative humidity or forty to sixty units of vapor pressure. The Dollar Hen The horizontal line passing through this intersection shows the relative humidity to be 64 per cent. Seasoning of Wood But there are undoubtedly other complications besides the evaporations from the soil and the relative humidity of the air to be considered in making an enquiry into the causes of good and bad scent. A Cotswold Village But sometimes a condition will occur where at some level, instead of the temperature and/or relative humidity decreasing with altitude, it will begin to increase. The Report on Unidentified Flying Objects The diurnal ascending air currents of summer usually give mountains their maximum cloudiness and highest relative humidity in the warmer months, while winter is the drier and clearer season. Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 6, Slice 5 "Clervaux" to "Cockade" A low relative humidity gives comfort and freedom from sunstroke even when the thermometer registers the shade temperature in three figures. Arizona Sketches To find how much water per cubic foot is contained in the air: Find the relative humidity as in example 1. Seasoning of Wood The iodide curve follows closely that of relative humidity, clouds, and rain; the thallium curve stands in no relation to it. Scientific American Supplement, No. 275, April 9, 1881 This cold belt wrings the water out of the westerly winds, so that by the time they reach the warm land their relative humidity is low. Inca Land Explorations in the Highlands of Peru Characteristic, also, of marine climates is a prevailingly higher relative humidity, a larger amount of cloudiness, and a heavier rainfall than is found over continental interiors. Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 6, Slice 5 "Clervaux" to "Cockade" We also made observations regarding soil, atmospheric temperature and relative humidity and took soil samples to measure the moisture content. 12th November: Left for New College as usual. Free from School To find the dew-point: Obtain the relative humidity as in example 1. Seasoning of Wood The lowest temperature recorded was 32.7 degrees F. The average relative humidity for the four months ending April 30 was 93 per cent., leading to copious condensation on the instruments exposed to the air. The Home of the Blizzard Being the Story of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition, 1911-1914 The amount of water actually found in a given volume of air at a certain temperature, compared with the largest amount it can hold, is called the relative humidity of the air. Dry-Farming : a System of Agriculture for Countries under a Low Rainfall The cloudiness and relative humidity average high on western coasts, with the maximum in the colder season. Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition, Volume 6, Slice 5 "Clervaux" to "Cockade" The soil environment is generally quite moist; even when the soil seems a little dryish the relative humidity of the soil air usually approaches 100 percent. Organic Gardener's Composting This will be found at nearly 64 per cent relative humidity. Seasoning of Wood For instance, steam at atmospheric pressure and heated to 248 degrees Fahrenheit has a relative humidity of only 50 per cent and is just as dry as air containing the same humidity. Seasoning of Wood As the temperature rises in spring, with a decrease in the relative humidity, and an increase in direct sunshine, evaporation from the soil surface increases greatly. Dry-Farming : a System of Agriculture for Countries under a Low Rainfall Superheated steam is nothing more than water vapor at a relative humidity less than saturation, but is usually considered at pressures above atmospheric, and in the absence of air. Seasoning of Wood When it is superheated it is just as dry as air containing the same relative humidity. Seasoning of Wood At the end of each barometer line will be found a fraction which represents the proportion of the relative humidity already found, which must be added or subtracted for a change in barometric pressure. Seasoning of Wood Knowing the temperature in the drying room and the dew point, the relative humidity is thus determined. Seasoning of Wood Similarly, evaporation from soils goes on rapidly under a low and slowly under a high percentage of relative humidity. Dry-Farming : a System of Agriculture for Countries under a Low Rainfall It is doubly important to maintain a uniform temperature and avoid fluctuations in the dry kiln, since a change in temperature will greatly alter the relative humidity. Seasoning of Wood This can be done by means of the relative humidity, as stated before. Seasoning of Wood The relative humidity is found, by the method given in example 1, to equal 30 per cent. Seasoning of Wood The horizontal line passing through this intersection will give the relative humidity. Seasoning of Wood All wet or moist substances lose by evaporation most of the water that they hold, providing the conditions of temperature and relative humidity are favorable. Dry-Farming : a System of Agriculture for Countries under a Low Rainfall The temperature is higher; the relative humidity lower, and the winds usually more abundant in arid than in humid regions. Dry-Farming : a System of Agriculture for Countries under a Low Rainfall Some of the conditions influencing the transpiration may be enumerated as follows:— First, transpiration is influenced by the relative humidity. Dry-Farming : a System of Agriculture for Countries under a Low Rainfall It may be carried further, however, by heating in partially humidified air, proportioning the relative humidity each time it is heated to the degree of moisture present in the wood. Seasoning of Wood The fact that transpiration is greater under a low relative humidity is of greatest importance to the dry-farmer who has to contend with the dry atmosphere. Dry-Farming : a System of Agriculture for Countries under a Low Rainfall As shown in Chapter IV, the relative humidity becomes smaller as the rainfall decreases. Dry-Farming : a System of Agriculture for Countries under a Low Rainfall For that reason many students of aridity pay little attention to temperature, relative humidity, or winds, and simply measure the evaporation from a free water surface in the locality in question. Dry-Farming : a System of Agriculture for Countries under a Low Rainfall In New York the relative humidity in summer is about 73 per cent; in Salt Lake City, about 35 per cent. Dry-Farming : a System of Agriculture for Countries under a Low Rainfall Fifty per cent relative humidity, therefore, signifies that only half the amount of vapor required to saturate the space at the given temperature is present. Seasoning of Wood It is an interesting observation that even with the same relative humidity, temperature, and wind, transpiration is reduced to a minimum during the night and increases manyfold during the day when direct sunlight is available. Dry-Farming : a System of Agriculture for Countries under a Low Rainfall The lower the relative humidity is at a given temperature, the more rapidly will water evaporate into the air. Dry-Farming : a System of Agriculture for Countries under a Low Rainfall A relative humidity of 100 per cent means that the air is saturated; of 50 per cent, that it is only one half saturated. Dry-Farming : a System of Agriculture for Countries under a Low Rainfall To the dry-farmer, therefore, the relative humidity or degree of dryness of the air is of very great importance. Dry-Farming : a System of Agriculture for Countries under a Low Rainfall The main things influencing evaporation are, first, the quantity of heat supplied and, second, the relative humidity of the immediately surrounding space.
