Isohume
Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-006700
A line on a weather map or chart that connects points of equal relative humidity. Isohumes depict the spatial distribution of atmospheric moisture content relative to its saturation point at a given temperature. Unlike an isodrosotherm, which measures absolute moisture, an isohume's value depends on both moisture and temperature, with 100 percent relative humidity indicating saturated air.
