However, many
processes that remove
water from the atmosphere (i.e. cloud
formation and rainfall) have a clear functional dependence on the relative humidity rather than the total amount of
water (i.e. clouds form when air parcels are saturated at their local temperature, not when humidity reaches X g / m3).
Since many of these
