Parameters:

t (numpy.ndarray, list, float) – Temperature in Kelvin
w (numpy.ndarray, list, float) – Mixing ratio in kg/kg. Must have the same dimensions as temperature
p (numpy.ndarray, list, float) – Pressure in Pa. Must have the same dimensions as temperature

Returns:

rh (numpy.ndarray) – Relative humidity. Will have the same dimensions as temperature
