As temperature increases,the saturation specific humidity A)increases. B)decreases. C)remains constant. D)changes in a random,unpredictable manner. E)Air temperature has no effect on saturation specific humidity.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

As temperature increases, the ability of air to hold water vapor also increases, thus increasing the saturation specific humidity.
