Sean or Pam -- or whoever you are --
I'm not going to attempt to answer these open-ended questions without two things:
1. Your choices
2. Your answer
sorry im not sean or whoever you think im but anyway
frost
strong winds
radiation
condensation
evaporation
radiation or evaporation
i think it is evaporation :)
thanks nichole :)
a process called "radiative cooling." When the Earth's surface cools down at night, it radiates heat into the atmosphere. This causes the air near the surface to cool, and if the cooling is sufficient, it can reach the dew point temperature.
The dew point temperature is the temperature at which the air becomes saturated with water vapor and condensation occurs. When the air temperature reaches the dew point, the water vapor in the air condenses into tiny water droplets or ice crystals, forming fog.
So, to summarize, fog forms when there is a loss of heat from the Earth's surface through radiative cooling, causing the air temperature to reach the dew point and water vapor to condense into fog droplets.
