Measurements of humidity at a height of 4 m were made at Halley Research Station between 1995 and 1997 using a frost point hygrometer. Relative humidities were usually close to ice saturation, particularly during the winter, but ice supersaturations of up to 20% were frequently measured. Supersatura...
