weather climate

Explanation:

The passage mentions "the low humidity over the last month of the expedition". Weather refers to atmospheric conditions at a specific place and time (or short - term period like a month here), while climate is a long - term pattern. Since it's about the humidity during a specific month (a short - term period) of the expedition, it describes weather.

weather
