A hygrometer measures the relative humidity at a location, which can then be used to compute the dew point.

Humidity is generally high, averaging about 80 .

A Schirmer's test can measure the amount of moisture bathing the eye.

The unit heats air at the bottom, reducing its relative humidity, and the natural tendency of hot air to rise brings this low humidity air into contact with the clothes.

In reality, however, it is extremely rare for an environment to maintain a constant fixed relative humidity, and some degree of dimensional change along with seasonal changes in relative humidity is to be expected.

Moisture meters are used to measure the percentage of water in a given substance.

It also changes with variation in temperature or humidity.

It is one of the 30 major soil groups of the World Reference Base for Soil Resources.

Soil conservation.

m. Soils are very diverse, the best fertile soils covering 1 3 of the territory.

However, in humid climates much energy is required to remove excess moisture from ventilation air.

The average relative humidity is 75 , varying from 72 in July to 77 in November.

This allows air and water to enter, and helps the seedling penetrate the soil.

Low concentration of P in soils reduces plant growth, and slows soil microbial growth as shown in studies of soil microbial biomass.

The climate is tropical monsoonal, slightly less humid than the average in this part of Indonesia.

Some standards suggest a limit for the relative humidity in a space to 60 or 70 .

) In addition, world wide operation will also involve exposure in areas of high humidity.

Workers come home from their jobs to homes that are dark, dank, and depressing.

However, the low humidity level mitigates the effect of high temperatures.

Thailand enjoys a tropical climate, with a high level of humidity throughout the year.

Leaving crop residues on the soil changes the surface characteristics. It increases rainfall efficiency, as water gets caught by and then percolates through the residues and soil.

Here, plants evolve that have resistance to high levels of metals in the soil.

The nitrate and phosphate levels of the soil can be adjusted with fertilizer.

The powerful earthquake caused soil liquefaction in the region.

Peruvian newspapers reported on Thursday, July 4, 2013, that humidity in Lima reached 100 .

The average humidity is 81 , ranging from a high of 88 to a low of 69 in May.

Malaysia maintains a humidity level around ninety percent because of its location close to the equator.

Designed to improve manufacturing process control in a printing plant, Carrier's invention controlled not only temperature but also humidity.

And by taking giant mirrors and here she's taking giant mirrors and pulling them into the dirt.

Environmentalists make several arguments for leaving the bitumen in the dirt.

Deforestation Deforestation is a major concern for Ethiopia as studies suggest loss of forest contributes to soil erosion, loss of nutrients in the soil, loss of animal habitats and reduction in biodiversity.

He warned me that the tree was haunted .

Using a humidifier, especially in the winter, can help by adding moisture to the dry indoor air.

A humidifier is a device that increases humidity (moisture) in a single room or an entire building.

) Microorganisms Many different soil microorganisms are responsible for nutrient recycling (for one, through decomposing plant residues) and other soil building and maintaining activities.

Soil erosion, waterlogging and salinity, predicted to increase with the onset of climate change, all contribute to land degradation and desertification, leading to overexploitation of the land.

A common example is a plant root growing in humid air bending toward a higher relative humidity level.

After the sprouts are about long, the seed potatoes are planted in the ground.

The Ramsar Scientific and Technical Review Panel (STRP) is developing a series of indicators to monitor the state of the world's wetlands, these indicators taking into consideration the quality of soils around the wetlands.

Specially designed glasses that form a moisture chamber around the eye may be used to create additional humidity.

Waterlogging refers to the saturation of soil with water.

In central and eastern Europe, soil conservation activities are implemented with the support of initiatives focusing mainly on combating soil erosion, land fertility management and water conservation.

By mid August, humidity levels were averaging below 20 and were recorded as low as 6 on one occasion.

The species forms fruit bodies singly or in groups in soil or rotting wood.

The rainy season, which runs from May to October, sees high temperatures accompanied by high humidity.
