Question

which factors affect the concentration of water vapor in the atmosphere? seasonal time of year properties of earths surface below air mass properties of earths atmosphere above air mass altitude of a particular air mass

Explanation:

• Seasonal time of year affects temperature and evaporation/precipitation rates, influencing water vapor concentration.
• Properties of Earth's surface (e.g., wetland vs. desert) determine evaporation amount, thus water vapor.
• Altitude affects temperature and pressure. Lower temperatures at higher altitudes reduce water - holding capacity.
• Properties of Earth's atmosphere above air mass (e.g., upper - level winds, temperature inversions) can affect vertical mixing and water vapor distribution.

Answer:

All options (seasonal time of year, properties of Earth's surface below air mass, properties of Earth's atmosphere above air mass, altitude of a particular air mass) affect the concentration of water vapor in the atmosphere.
