🔍 Key Concepts

• Radiation vs. advection fog formation and what type of temperature change causes them to form • How warming the air or cooling the surface affects relative humidity and fog thickness • The role of vertical motion of air (upslope vs. downslope) in cloud and fog formation or dissipation

💭 Think About

• For each option, ask: does this process make the air closer to saturation (more fog) or farther from saturation (less fog)? • Think about whether the process warms or cools the air at the surface, and whether that increases or decreases the relative humidity. • Consider which processes are commonly associated with forming fog versus breaking up or lifting fog.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option clearly warms the air at or near the surface without adding extra moisture. • Eliminate any options that are well-known fog formation mechanisms (especially involving warm air over cold surfaces or cold water upwelling). • Check which situation would cause relative humidity to drop, making fog droplets evaporate.
