The relationship between relative humidity and the dewpoint temperature in moist air - A simple conversion and applications
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the mathematical basis and accuracy of the relationship between the dewpoint and relative humidity, and proposed a simple rule of thumb that can be very useful for approximating the conversion for moist air, which does not appear to be widely known by the meteorological community.

Absolute humidity modulates influenza survival, transmission, and seasonality
Jeffrey Shaman,Melvin Kohn +1 more
TL;DR: Differences in AH provide a single, coherent, more physically sound explanation for the observed variability of IVS, IVT and influenza seasonality in temperate regions and can be further tested through future, additional laboratory, epidemiological and modeling studies.
