The dewpoint of ascending [[moist air]] decreases at a rate only about one-fifth as great as the [[dry-adiabatic lapse rate]]. The dewpoint can be measured directly by several kinds of [[dewpoint hygrometers]] or it can be deduced indirectly from [[psychrometers]] or devices that measure the water vapor density or [[mixing ratio]]. <br/>''See'' [[dewpoint formula]].</div></td></tr>
