Although the water vapor is not a small fraction of total atmosphere, but it can be considered one of the most components of air influence on weather and climate. It is well known that gases distribution are roughly constant from one place to another that is near the earth surface, but the amount of water vapor variates from one place to another between zero to 5% of components of the atmosphere , and as a result it affects on the possibility for precipitation and absorption of large quantities of terrestrial radiation and the ability to retain heat. And when the underlying emancipation, it leads to air changes wider and more violent. In addition, the high or low humidity has an effect on humans that at low humidity, man can complain from dryness of skin, throat and breathing difficulties in the elderly and that the increasing in moisture occurs respiratory diseases and rheumatic pains and stresses. And what we have mentioned was the impetus to find and our research has aim to prove our hypothesis that indicates that there is a relationship between the humidity and air temperature and through the incoming data from meteorological analysis, we could prove our hypothesis.



Comments

How did you measure temperature and relative humidity? What tools did you use?
The effect of humidity on the human The effects of humidity: · When low humidity،  Human grumbles from dryness of larynx skin and Dry sinus The elderly may have trouble breathing.  Its harmful effects on the respiratory system, especially in people who suffer from respiratory crisis leads to worsening of breath attacks and shortness of breath cases The destructive effects of machinery and equipment. But when high humidity Discomfort. Aggravation of asthma and shortness of breath for it with increased moisture increases a sense of suffocation Inflammation of the skin folds where constitute the center of the growth of bacteria and fungi Headache, heart rhythm disorder and a general feeling of tiredness Occur respiratory diseases and rheumatic pain and nervous. Moisten cause of the body and clothing, causing chills. Make all the surfaces slippery, leading to slip and fall. Meteorologist is used for our research and we measure the humidity with Digital Hygrometer, and the temperature is measured with Digital Multi Day Max/Min Thermometer.

Thank you so much for the very nice project! This study is very important to your local communities. One question;
1. Did you consider collecting your own data to compare with the measurements?
2. According to your recommendations; do you have plan to share the findindings of this study with local communities? How will you do that?
Hi GLOBE Student!
Good Job for what you have done!

Would you see the different between wet and dry season from your results?
* What is meant here measurements?
Made intended protocol atmosphere of the program Globe measurements have the idea of ​​research from our observation during the recording readings that there is a relationship between temperature and relative humidity , we noticed that it at high temperature the relative humidity decreased but when we want to conduct the study at our own readings on the site, unfortunately we did not find any read so we turned to the meteorological data city of Taif
•Of course I have prepared for community participation with either hand with the preservation of rights and on top of those actors who provide meteorological data.
The research is published in the introductory brochure for the program Globe summary is distributed in the Globe environmental forum.
Put forward and discuss research in the Globe environmental forum.
•This is the response of the student for the questions given.
This is the student's reply.

Yes, where winter (December, January and February
2,1,12) we note from the low temperature and high relative humidity data analysis shall be cool humid.
Summer (June, July and August 8,7,6) , we note from the data high temperature and low relative humidity analysis shall be dry hot.
