Advection fog


Fog generated when winds flow over a surface with a different temperature. Two types of advection fog exist. When warm air flows over a cold surface it can produce fog through contact cooling. Cold ai [..]

A type of fog caused by the advection of moist air over a cold surface, and the consequent cooling of that air to below its dewpoint. A very common advection fog is that caused by moist air over a col [..]

Advection fog


A type of fog formed when warm, moist air moves ?horizontally over a cold surface and the air is consequently cooled to below its dew point; this is found especially along a coastline where the temperature of land and the temperature of water markedly differ.

Advection fog


Fog that forms as warmer, moist air moves over a cold ground. The air is cooled to saturation by the loss of heat to the cold ground. Unlike radiation fog, advection fog may form under cloudy skies and with moderate to strong winds. Initial stability is relatively unimportant since low level cooling makes the air unstable near the ground.

Advection fog


This type of fog requires horizontally moving air, or air that is advecting horizontally from one place to another. When warm and moist air blows over a cold surface, the surface cools the air. Once the air temperature cools enough to equal the dewpoint temperature, condensation is formed and creates a blanket-like thick fog formation. This describ [..]

Advection fog


Fog which develops when a mass of relatively warm, moist air moves over a cooler surface and cools the air below its dew point temperature. Advection fog requires movement of air to form (hence the name). Advection fog is common at sea where it is called sea fog.
