  "id": "MLC-T-MET-009414",
  "term": "Supersaturation",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "A condition in the atmosphere where the relative humidity exceeds 100 percent, meaning the air contains more water vapor than it can theoretically hold at a given temperature and pressure. This state is unstable and typically leads to condensation or deposition of water vapor into liquid droplets or ice crystals. Supersaturation is a prerequisite for cloud formation.",
