Relative humidity predicts fire intensity in Cerrado burns
Relative air humidity, not season alone, determines fire intensity in Cerrado savanna. Early dry season burns under low humidity match late season fire intensities.

Water Adsorption of Non-Saline and Salt-Affected Clay
Water vapor adsorption in salt-affected clays varies with humidity, with salinity enhancing uptake at high relative humidity through capillary condensation.

Index links land humidity trends to precipitation and temperature
New index based on precipitation and evapotranspiration ratio reveals land relative humidity decreased substantially since 1973, reconciles climate model discrepancies, and improves hydroclimate.
