I haven't studied this but I'm going to try to deduce an answer with common sense and previous knowledge :
Dehydration = less H2O
Less H20 = More viscous Blood
More viscous Blood = higher pressure needed (as more resistance to blood flow) to make it reach organs, etc. at normal rate
higher pressure is then obtained by blood vessels contracting (ever notice how putting your thumb in front of a tap's opening causes water to burst out faster)
ADH would constricts blood vessels so more would be released if less H2O (also as the more ADH is released the more H2O is reabsorbed from kidneys)
Now I'm not sure about all this so someone get back to me if what I said is correct I simply used my common sense and my knowledge on ADH function in kidneys to provide and explanation; I love this about human biology
