  2. Apparent temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apparent_temperature

    Apparent temperature, also known as "feels like", [1] [2] is the temperature equivalent perceived by humans, caused by the combined effects of air temperature, relative humidity and wind speed. The measure is most commonly applied to the perceived outdoor temperature.

  3. Humidex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humidex

    When the temperature is 30 °C (86 °F) and the dew point is 15 °C (59 °F), the humidex is 34. If the temperature remains 30 °C (86 °F) and the dew point rises to 25 °C (77 °F), the humidex rises to 42. The humidex is higher than the U.S. heat index at equal temperature and relative humidity. The humidex formula is as follows: [7] [8]

  4. Humidity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humidity

    In hot summer weather, a rise in relative humidity increases the apparent temperature to humans (and other animals) by hindering the evaporation of perspiration from the skin. For example, according to the heat index, a relative humidity of 75% at air temperature of 80.0 °F (26.7 °C) would feel like 83.6 ± 1.3 °F (28.7 ± 0.7 °C). [13] [14]

  5. Heat index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_index

    The heat index (HI) is an index that combines air temperature and relative humidity, in shaded areas, to posit a human-perceived equivalent temperature, as how hot it would feel if the humidity were some other value in the shade. For example, when the temperature is 32 °C (90 °F) with 70% relative humidity, the heat index is 41 °C (106 °F ...

  6. 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.

  7. Cloud base - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_base

    Alternatively, the cloud base can be estimated from surface measurements of air temperature and humidity by calculating the lifted condensation level. One method for doing this, used by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration and often named after Tom Bradbury, [1] is as follows: Find the difference between the surface temperature and the dew ...

  8. Water activity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_activity

    Relationship to relative humidity: The relative humidity (RH) of air in equilibrium with a sample is also called the Equilibrium Relative Humidity (ERH) and is usually given as a percentage. [2] It is equal to water activity according to E R H = a w × 100 % . {\displaystyle \mathrm {ERH} =a_{w}\times 100\%.}

  9. Penman–Monteith equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penman–Monteith_equation

    Δ = Rate of change of saturation specific humidity with air temperature. (Pa K −1) R n = Net irradiance (MJ m −2 day −1), the external source of energy flux G = Ground heat flux (MJ m −2 day −1), usually equivalent to zero on a day T = Air temperature at 2m (K) u 2 = Wind speed at 2m height (m/s) δe = vapor pressure deficit (kPa)
