Relating relative humidity fluctuations to damage in oak panel paintings by a simple experiment

Relative humidity in incubators.

In a previous paper Hey and Maurice (1968) have reported the effect of changes of relative humidity on the heat production and heat loss in normal naked babies in a specially constructed metabolic chamber under controlled environmental conditions. In order to evaluate the clinical relevance of these observations we have studied the control of relative humidity that could be achieved in three co...

Relative humidity changes in a warmer climate

[1] Key climate feedback due to water vapor and clouds rest largely on how relative humidity R changes in a warmer climate, yet this has not been extensively analyzed in models. General circulation models (GCMs) from the CMIP3 archive and several higher‐ resolution atmospheric GCMs examined here generally predict a characteristic pattern of R trend with global temperature that has been reported...

Effect of Relative Humidity

HIMMELFARB, PHILIP (University of Massachusetts, Amherst), HAMED M. EL-BISI, R. B. READ, JR., AND WARREN LITSKY. Effect of relative humidity on the bactericidal activity of propylene oxide vapor. Appl. Microbiol. 10:431-435. 1962.-Because of the low toxicity of its breakdown product, propylene oxide (PO) vapor will play an increasingly important role in the preservation of foods. It is therefor...

A simple model for relating concentrations and fluctuations of trace reactive species to their lifetimes in the atmosphere

[1] By means of a simple analytical one-dimensional (1-D) model, we predict mean vertical structure and fluctuations in trace gas concentrations as a function of species lifetime in the atmosphere. The model assumes a well-mixed planetary boundary layer (PBL) overlain by a free troposphere with constant diffusivity separated by a jump in species concentration. A jump in concentration is also as...
