Geog. 217 Humidity/Orographic Lab

  1. Using the Saturation Vapor Pressure Curve (attached), describe the relationship between temperature at SVP.  What does this relationship mean relative to precipitation?

  2. Suppose absolute humidity was 8 mb at a temperature of 50°F (10°C). What is current relative humidity?  What would relative humidity be if the temperature increased to 68°F (20°C)?

  3. When absolute humidity is held constant, RH possesses a(n) (a) inverse (b) direct ratio per temperature change. No Explanation

  4. What is the dewpoint (Tdew) for the air parcel in question 2?

According to the SVP Table

  1. Using your SVP Table, suppose a parcel of air has a 30% RH at 80°F.  What will its Tdew be?
