EAS 345 Lab 3 PRECIPITATION, DISCHARGE, AND WATER VAPOR Introduction. The following notes contain some of the important equations needed to determine the amount of vapor in the atmosphere and the potential amount of precipitation. This difficult lab is essential because water vapor in the atmosphere is the ultimate source for stream flow and floods. For more information and illustrations about water, see the PowerPoint Presentation on Water The amount of water vapor in the atmosphere is usually expressed as a fraction of the amount of air. This makes it necessary to have equations for the
