| Abstract from DBPedia | Fog is a visible aerosol consisting of tiny water droplets or ice crystals suspended in the air at or near the Earth's surface. Fog can be considered a type of low-lying cloud usually resembling stratus, and is heavily influenced by nearby bodies of water, topography, and wind conditions. In turn, fog affects many human activities, such as shipping, travel, and warfare. Fog appears when water vapor (water in its gaseous form) condenses. During condensation, molecules of water vapor combine to make tiny liquid water droplets that hang in the air. Sea fog, which shows up near bodies of saline water, is formed as water vapor condenses on bits of salt. Fog is similar to, but less transparent than, mist.霧（きり）とは、水蒸気を含んだ大気の温度が何らかの理由で下がり露点温度に達した際に、含まれていた水蒸気が小さな水粒となって空中に浮かんだ状態。 (Source: http://dbpedia.org/resource/Fog) |
