A known amount of water vapour will result in different relative humidity readings, depending on the temperature of the air and the ability of the air to suspend it. So a low air temperature might give a high relative humidity reading because the air can't suspend much more water vapour. Increasing the temperature of the air and keeping the same amount of water vapour will cause the relative humidity reading to drop, because the maximum amount of water vapour that could be suspended has increased. | A known amount of water vapour will result in different relative humidity readings, depending on the temperature of the air and the ability of the air to suspend it.
