Nota adicional1
Water vapor is important as the raw material for cloud and rain and snow. […] The amount of water vapor present in a given air sample may be measured in a number of different ways, involving such concepts as absolute humidity, mixing ratio, dewpoint, relative humidity, specific humidity, and vapor pressure
Contexto
Even small amounts of water vapor can lead to cirrus cloud formation; hence a large number of smaller aircraft flying in a region of the atmosphere favorable to contrail formation could conceivably have more impact than a few large aircraft.
