Absolute humidity:

  

shows the contained amount of water in gramme per cubic metre of air. The 
absolute  humidity  is  a  direct  degree  for  the  amount  of  water  vapour 
contained  in  a  certain  air  volume.  It  shows  how  much  moisture  can 
maximally  condense  or  how  much  water  has  to  be  evaporated  to  receive  a 
certain desired air humidity. 

 

Relative air humidity:  

indicates  the  relation  between  the  current  water  vapour  pressure  and  the 
maximal possible water vapour pressure (called saturation vapour pressure). 
The  relative  humidity  shows  the  degree  the  air  is  saturated  with  water 
vapour. For example: 
50%  relative  humidity  indicates  that  at  the  current  temperature  and  the 
current  pressure  the  air  is  saturated  with  water  vapour  for  half  of  its  value, 
100 % relative humidity means that the air is totally saturated. When the air 
has  more  than  100  %  of  relative  humidity,  the  excessive  moisture  would 
condense or form fog.
