The water vapor is one of the most variable gases in the atmosphere which is present in small amount but is none the less very important. Water vapor plays an significant role in the insulating action of the atmosphere. The moisture holding capacity of the air varies in the direct proportion to its temperature. In other words the higher the temperature of the air, the larger the capacity to hold moisture and vice versa.
