absolute humidity

IPA（発音記号）

/ˈæb.səˌlut hjuˈmɪd.ɪ.ti/

名詞

可算名詞 不可算名詞

(meteorology) In a system of moist air, the ratio of the mass of water vapor present to the volume occupied by the mixture, that is, the density of the water vapor component. Absolute humidity is usually expressed in grams of water vapor per cubic meter or, in engineering practice, in grains per cubic foot. Because this measure of atmospheric humidity is not conservative with respect to adiabatic expansion or compression, it is not commonly used by meteorologists. (Also called vapor concentration and vapor density). See relative humidity.

日本語の意味

大気中の水蒸気の実際の密度、すなわち単位体積（通常は立方メートルもしくは工学的単位のキュービックフィート）あたりに含まれる水蒸気の質量を指す指標。

Absolute humidity measured in grams per cubic meter fell sharply as the air expanded, underscoring why meteorologists prefer relative humidity for adiabatic processes.

空気が膨張するにつれて、立方メートル当たりグラムで測定される絶対湿度は急激に下がり、気象学者が断熱過程では相対湿度を好む理由が明らかになった。
