DESI Spray Stability in the Negative Ion Mode Is Dependent on Relative Humidity

Influenza Virus Transmission Is Dependent on Relative Humidity and Temperature

Using the guinea pig as a model host, we show that aerosol spread of influenza virus is dependent upon both ambient relative humidity and temperature. Twenty experiments performed at relative humidities from 20% to 80% and 5 degrees C, 20 degrees C, or 30 degrees C indicated that both cold and dry conditions favor transmission. The relationship between transmission via aerosols and relative hum...

On the Relative Humidity of the Atmosphere

Water is a nearly miraculous molecule that enters into the operation of the climate system in a remarkable variety of ways. A wide-ranging overview can be found in Pierrehumbert (2002). In the present chapter, we will be concerned only with the radia-tive effects of atmospheric water vapor on climate, and with the kinematics of how the water vapor distribution is maintained. These effects are i...

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...
