  2. Dew point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dew_point

    The dew point temperature equals the air temperature when the air is saturated with water; in all other cases the dew point will be less than the air temperature. [ 6 ] : 129 In technical terms, the dew point is the temperature at which the water vapor in a sample of air at constant barometric pressure condenses into liquid water at the same ...

    In the following table, material data are given with a pressure of 611.7 Pa (equivalent to 0.006117 bar). Up to a temperature of 0.01 °C, the triple point of water, water normally exists as ice, except for supercooled water, for which one data point is tabulated here. At the triple point, ice can exist together with both liquid water and vapor.

  5. Water table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_table

    The slope of the water table is known as the “hydraulic gradient”, which depends on the rate at which water is added to and removed from the aquifer and the permeability of the material. The water table does not always mimic the topography due to variations in the underlying geological structure (e.g., folded, faulted, fractured bedrock).

  6. Vapour pressure of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapour_pressure_of_water

    The boiling point of water is the temperature at which the saturated vapor pressure equals the ambient pressure. Water supercooled below its normal freezing point has a higher vapor pressure than that of ice at the same temperature and is, thus, unstable. Calculations of the (saturation) vapor pressure of water are commonly used in meteorology.

  7. Wet-bulb temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet-bulb_temperature

    The wet-bulb temperature is the lowest temperature that may be achieved by evaporative cooling of a water-wetted, ventilated surface.. By contrast, the dew point is the temperature to which the ambient air must be cooled to reach 100% relative humidity assuming there is no further evaporation into the air; it is the temperature where condensation (dew) and clouds would form.

  8. Vapour-pressure deficit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapour-pressure_deficit

    To compute the VPD, [2] we need the ambient (greenhouse) air temperature, the relative humidity and, if possible, the canopy air temperature. We must then compute the saturation pressure. Saturation pressure can be looked up in a psychrometric chart or derived from the Arrhenius equation; a way to compute it directly from temperature is

  9. Lifting condensation level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifting_condensation_level

    The LCL can be either computed or determined graphically using standard thermodynamic diagrams such as the skew-T log-P diagram or the tephigram.Nearly all of these formulations make use of the relationship between the LCL and the dew point, which is the temperature to which an air parcel needs to be cooled isobarically until its RH just reaches 100%.
