Question
1. Using the rs table, fill in the saturation mixing ratios in the chart below. (Assume 1000mb pressure for these surface observations.)
2. The dewpoint temperature expresses the temperature at which the air would be saturated given the present moisture content. Use the rs table along with the dewpoint temperature to find the mixing ratio at 6 a.m.
3. Assuming there is no addition or removal of water vapor, fill in the mixing ratios for the rest of the day.
4. Next, fill in the associated dewpoint temperatures.
5. Calculate the relative humidities.
