Vapour-pressure deficit temperature, the relative humidity and, if possible, the canopy air temperature. We must then compute the saturation pressure. Saturation pressure can be looked up in a psychrometric chart or derived from the Arrhenius equation, a way to compute it directly from temperature is where: To convert between Rankine and degrees Fahrenheit: formula_10 We compute this pressure for both the ambient and canopy temperatures. We then can compute the actual partial pressure of the water vapour in the air by multiplying by the relative humidity [%]: and finally VPD using formula_12 or formula_13 when the canopy temperature is known.

Amount of substance replaces the term "number of moles" which should no longer be used according to IUPAC recommendation. However, confusion can arise due to the everyday usage of the term amount and the term "enplethy" has been suggested for international usage to replace amount of substance. When amount of substance enters into a derived quantity, it is usually as the denominator: such quantities are known as molar quantities. For example, the quantity which describes the volume occupied by a given amount of substance is called the molar volume, while the quantity which describes the mass of a given amount of substance is
