For Water vapor we have terms and definitions in 9 topics. The topics are Atmospheric Chemistry, Boiler, Climate, Climatology, Energy, Global Warming, Hydrology, Roofing and Science.

Water Vapor (Atmospheric Chemistry)

Water present in the atmosphere in gaseous form; the source of all forms of condensation and precipitation. Water vapor, clouds, and carbon dioxide are the main atmospheric components in the exchange of terrestrial radiation in the troposphere, serving as a regulator of planetary temperatures via the greenhouse effect. Approximately 50 percent of the atmosphere's moisture lies within about 1.84 km of the earth's surface, and only a minute fraction of the total occurs above the tropopause.

Water Vapor (Boiler)

A synonym for steam, usually used to denote steam of low absolute pressure.

Water Vapor (Climate)

Water present in the atmosphere in gaseous form; the source of all forms of condensation and precipitation. Water vapor, clouds, and carbon dioxide are the main atmospheric components in the exchange of terrestrial radiation in the troposphere, serving as a regulator of planetary temperatures via the greenhouse effect. Approximately 50 percent of the atmosphere's moisture lies within about 1.84 km of the earth's surface, and only a minute fraction of the total occurs above the tropopause.

Water Vapor (Climatology)

Water in a gaseous (vapor) form

Water Vapor (Energy)

Water in a vaporous form, especially when below boiling temperature and diffused (e.g., in the atmosphere).

Water Vapor (Global Warming)

Water in a vaporous form, especially when below boiling temperature and diffused (e.g., in the atmosphere).

Water Vapor (Hydrology)

Gassious form of water.

Water Vapor (Roofing)

Moisture existing as a gas in air.

Water Vapor (Science)

Water in the gas phase; usually below its normal boiling point
