Dew point - Wikipedia
WEBThe dew point of a given body of air is the temperature to which it must be cooled to become saturated with water vapor. This temperature depends on the pressure and water content of the air. When the air is cooled below the dew point, its moisture capacity is reduced and airborne water vapor will condense to form liquid water known as dew. [1]
Dew Point vs Humidity - National Weather Service
WEBThe dew point is the temperature the air needs to be cooled to (at constant pressure) in order to achieve a relative humidity (RH) of 100%. At this point the air cannot hold more water in the gas form.

WEBFeb 11, 2014 · The dew point is the temperature at which air is saturated with water vapor, which is the gaseous state of water. When air has reached the dew-point temperature at a particular pressure,...
What Is Dew Point? - Science Notes and Projects
WEBMay 27, 2023 · In simple terms, the dew point is the temperature at which the air can no longer hold all of its water vapor so that some of that vapor condenses into liquid water, forming dew or frost.

Dew point | humidity, condensation, air temperature | Britannica
WEBAug 14, 2024 · Dew point, the temperature at which the atmosphere is saturated with water vapour, when it is cooled without changing its pressure or vapour content. A given volume of air containing much water vapour has a higher dew point than the same volume of drier air; thus the dew point gives an indication.
Dew Point Temperature: An Overview - ThoughtCo
WEBJul 29, 2019 · The dew point temperature is what causes dew to form on the grass in the morning. The morning, just before sunrise, is the lowest air temperature of the day, so it is the time when the dew point temperature is most likely to be reached.
