This document discusses relative humidity and how it is measured. It defines relative humidity as a percentage of the amount of moisture in the air compared to the maximum the air can hold at a given temperature. Two common instruments for measuring relative humidity are described: the wet-bulb and dry-bulb psychrometer, which measures the temperature difference between a wet and dry bulb to determine relative humidity, and the hair hygrometer, which measures how much a hair stretches with moisture in the air.
