7 types of fog are common in nature

Radiant fog, frozen fog or ice fog are among the most common types of mist that people do not know.

According to Mother Nature Network, Radiation fog is a type of fog that is close to the ground and usually dissipates after dawn.It formed on quiet nights, clear sky, when the ground cooled down due to heat radiation.The air above the ground becomes colder than the day so it doesn't hold much moisture.The steam condenses into droplets of water suspended in the air.Radiation fog is common in autumn and early winter.(Photo: Wikimedia Commons).

Valley fog (Valley fog) formed in valleys, the basin between hills and mountains.This is a kind of radiation mist.When the cooler, heavier air layer is filled with dew droplets trapped beneath a warmer, lighter layer of air inside the terrain, it cannot escape and usually lasts for several days.One of the most special examples of valley fog is the Tule fog.It occurs regularly in Central Valley, California, USA, from late autumn to early spring.(Photo: EddieCloud).

Advection fog formed by a hot, humid air mass moving above a colder surface, usually the water surface, causes the air layer to close to the surface to cool and condense to form mist.On the picture is the stratosphere fog covering the city of San Francisco, USA.(Photo: Francesco Carucci).

Upslope fog (Upslope fog) forms when the wind blows hot, moist air masses on a slope.This air mass will expand due to the reduced air pressure (thermal expansion), it cools and reaches the condensation point, forming a cloud.(Photo: Alxcrs).

Freezing fog (Freezing fog) forms when water droplets in the fog get cold under freezing temperatures, but still exist in liquid state.If these droplets touch the icy surface, they will turn into white ice crystals, covering everything in winter.(Photo: Sanja Karin Music).

Frozen fog formed by water droplets in the fog encountered super cold temperatures (lower than -30º C), making them unable to exist in liquid state and turning into suspended ice crystals. in the air.Ice fog usually occurs in Alaska, or the North Pole.(Photo: Sikes / Wikimedia Commons).

Evaporation fog (Evaporation fog) forms when cold air masses move above warm water (sea, lake, river, .).The amount of steam coming from the water surface meets the lower temperature of the cold air mass above, making it rapidly condensed to form a mist.(Photo: Andreiuc88).
