Which fog can form when moist air from the sea moves over cold land?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Advection fog

Answer: D, advection fog. Fog is a collection of very small water droplets suspended close to the ground. First, moist air from the sea moves horizontally toward land. Next, the cold land surface cools this moving air. If the air cools to its dew point, it becomes saturated and some water vapour condenses into tiny droplets. Because the air has moved from one place to another, this is called advection fog. A is wrong because a convective storm is produced by strong rising air and instability, not simply by moist air passing over cold land. B is wrong because a dust storm contains lifted solid particles and is usually associated with strong winds and dry conditions. C is wrong because mountain snowfall is frozen precipitation, not suspended fog droplets. D is correct. Memory cue: horizontal movement plus cooling surface equals advection fog.
