  1. AH, absolute humidity; ARCH, auto-regressive conditional heteroskedasticity.
  2. *The regression coefficient shows the increase in average indoor AH (mb) associated with a 100 unit increase in CO2 (ppm).
  3. ARCH model association between indoor absolute humidity (mb) and CO2 (ppm) with and without adjustments for indoor temperature and school vs. non-school hours at 5-minut time intervals during a representative school week in early February 2011; Models D, E adjusted for differences by room and CO2, Model E adjusted for indoor temperature and school vs non-school hours; All coefficients statistically significant with p < .001.
