"So moisture means liquid water or gaseous water vapor ?"

Moisture content of air typically refers to gaseous. Condensed water is "fog", "clouds", or "rain".

So if you heat the air, you heat the water vapor. Both will expand. Volume increases and density drops. Total mass remains the same. The only way warmer air could hold more vapor, would be if you are also referring to a greater total mass of air. So their stunning scientific observation is that more air can hold more vapor ?
