100
This is the actual amount of water vapor in the air compared to how much water vapor the air could hold.
What is relative humidity?
100
This is the layer of the atmosphere where weather occurs.
What is the troposphere?
100
This instrument is used to measure temperature.
What is a thermometer?
100
This will not happen until the dew point temperature is reached.
What is Condensation/Precipitation?
100
This is the process occuring over bodies of water such as oceans, lakes, rivers and streams.
What is evaporation?
200
This temperature of air can hold more water vapor.
What is warm air?
200
This is the layer of the atmosphere where temperature rises with altitude because it contains the ozone layer.
What is the stratosphere?
200
This instrument is used to measure atmospheric pressure.
What is a barometer?
200
This is the temperature at which condensation begins.
What is dew point?
200
Water vapor condenses to form these.
What are clouds?
300
This is the relative humidity if the dry bulb temperature is 24 degrees C and the wet bulb temperature is 27 degrees C.
What is 76%?
300
This boundary between layers is 0 degrees C.
What is the stratopause?
300
This word means how tightly packed together molecules of a substance are.
What is density?
300
This is the dew point when the dry bulb temperature is 10 degrees C, and the difference between wet and dry bulb temperatures is 7 degrees.
What is -9 degrees C?
300
This is the layer of all liquid water on earth.
What is the hydrosphere?
400
The air is this when relative humidity is 100%.
What is saturated?
400
As altitude increases, pressure does this in all all layers of the atmosphere.
What is decrease?
400
These are the two reasons that there are four seasons on planet Earth.
What are revolution and tilt of earth's axis?
400
This is the dew point if the dry bulb temperature is 26 degrees C, and the wet bulb is 21 degrees C.
What is 18 degrees C?
400
This occurs when water droplets are too heavy to stay in the atmosphere.
What is precipitation?
500
This is the relative humidity if the dry bulb temperature is 24 degrees C, and the difference between wet and dry bulb temperatures is 8 degrees.
What is 42%?
500
This means height above sea level.
What is altitude?
500
This is the instrument used to measure humidity and dew point.
What is a sling psychrometer?
500
This is the relative humidity when the dew point temperature has been reached.
What is 100%?
500
This is the constant movement of water between the atmosphere and Earth's surface.
