  2. Fog - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fog

    Fog is a visible aerosol consisting of tiny water droplets or ice crystals suspended in the air at or near the Earth's surface. [1] [2] 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.

  3. Atmospheric circulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_circulation

    The Hadley cell is a closed circulation loop which begins at the equator. There, moist air is warmed by the Earth's surface, decreases in density and rises. A similar air mass rising on the other side of the equator forces those rising air masses to move poleward. The rising air creates a low pressure zone near the equator.

  4. Cloud feedback - Wikipedia

    However, it also increases the global albedo from 15% to 30%, and this reduces the amount of solar radiation absorbed by the Earth by about 44 W/m 2. Thus, there is a net cooling of about 13 W/m 2. [22] If the clouds were removed with all else remaining the same, the Earth would lose this much cooling and the global temperatures would increase.

  7. Atmospheric convection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_convection

    A tornado is a dangerous rotating column of air in contact with both the surface of the earth and the base of a cumulonimbus cloud (thundercloud), or a cumulus cloud in rare cases. Tornadoes come in many sizes but typically form a visible condensation funnel whose narrowest end reaches the earth and is surrounded by a cloud of debris and dust.

  8. What is super fog and what causes it? - AOL

    www.aol.com/news/super-fog-causes-182408871.html

    Super fog forms when a mixture of smoke and moisture released from damp, smoldering materials such as brush, leaves and trees, mixes with cooler, saturated air.

  9. Time loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_loop

    Time loops are constantly resetting; when a certain condition is met, such as a death of a character or a certain point in time, the loop starts again, possibly with one or more characters retaining the memories from the previous loop. [2] The term "time loop" is also sometimes used to refer to a sequence of events involving travel back in time ...
