Moisture in the atmosphere

Mixing Ratio (r): The actual amount of water vapor in an air parcel (Mass of water vapor per unit mass of dry air – grams of water/ kg of air) [g/kg]

Saturation Mixing Ratio (rs): The amount of water vapor in saturated air at a specific temperature [g/kg]

Relative Humidity (RH): The RATIO of the amount of water actually in the air compared to the max. amount of water vapor required for saturation at that particular temperature and pressure [%]

  RH = 100% x ( r / rs)
