Abstract: | Summary In the study, urban-suburban/rural vapour pressure and relative humidity differences at fixed hours in the Belgrade area
were analysed and compared. The data from one urban, two suburban and one rural stations (0700, 1400 and 2100 hours LTC),
for the period 1976–1980 were used. It has been found, on the basis of the vapour pressure differences that the atmosphere
in urban areas is more humid than that in the suburban and rural areas at 0700 and 2100 hours, in the period from September
to February, while from February to September the urban atmosphere is drier. At 1400 hours, urban atmosphere is drier throughout
the year. However, relative humidity differences indicate that urban air is less humid than the air in suburban and rural
areas throughout the year. Relationships between urban-suburban/rural vapour pressure differences and heat island intensity
revealed that the local effects could be significant.
