🔍 Key Concepts

• Dew point and what happens when air is cooled to it • Difference between radiation fog and advection fog • How warm moist air behaves when it moves over a colder surface

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Is the air staying in place and cooling from below, or is it moving horizontally over a different temperature surface? • Which type of fog is specifically linked to air movement (advection) versus nighttime cooling of the ground (radiation)? • How does reaching the dew point cause condensation and what visible effect does that have at sea?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify whether the key phrase "blows over" points to moving air or stationary air. • Match warm moist air over a colder surface with the correct fog mechanism from your notes. • Eliminate options that are mainly associated with ice formation or very cold polar conditions rather than typical sea fog.
