lack of moisture

County officials said high temperatures and low humidity were expected Tuesday, a bad combination for firefighters attempting to snuff out flames as the fire chews through vegetation dried out by the heat and lack of moisture in the air.

Unlike a typical drought, which refers to a total lack of moisture, a snow drought refers to a deficit in the expected amount of snow, Swain said.

Fabio Gamba, of the Airline Catering Association, an industry group, said in the last year, he had seen airlines go beyond what they were serving before the pandemic, trying to use improved technology and techniques to offer tastier food — as with wine, blunted taste buds and a lack of moisture are issues — as well as meet rising passenger expectations for creative and unexpected meals.

The lack of moisture would also diminish the amount of silica that is washed into the oceans, which usually removes CO2 from the atmosphere.

This is in part thanks to the lack of moisture as stated above, as when proteins lack moisture, they can coagulate more easily due to the reduction of sugar and the denaturing of protein when it hits heat.
