The setup is known as a fog fence, fog collector or fog net. Through condensation , atmospheric water vapour from the air condenses on cold surfaces into droplets of liquid water known as dew . The phenomenon is most observable on thin, flat, exposed objects including plant leaves and blades of grass.
Throughfall displacement experiment at Oak Ridge National Laboratory Litterfall and throughfall collectors at beech stand in Thetford, East Anglia [1] In hydrology, throughfall is the process which describes how wet leaves shed excess water onto the ground surface. These drops have greater erosive power because they are heavier than rain drops.
Updraft carburettor fitted to the engine of a 1923 Nash automobile. An updraft carburetor is a type of carburetor in which the air flows upward within the device. [1] Other types are downdraft and sidedraft.
State-of-the-art AWG for home use. An atmospheric water generator (AWG), is a device that extracts water from humid ambient air, producing potable water. Water vapor in the air can be extracted either by condensation - cooling the air below its dew point, exposing the air to desiccants, using membranes that only pass water vapor, collecting fog, [1] or pressurizing the air.
The Kelvin water dropper, invented by Scottish scientist William Thomson (Lord Kelvin) in 1867, [1] is a type of electrostatic generator.Kelvin referred to the device as his water-dropping condenser.
Fog drip is water dripping to the ground during fog. It occurs when water droplets from the fog adhere to the needles or leaves of trees or other objects, coalesce into larger drops and then drop to the ground. [1] Fog drip can be an important source of moisture in areas of low rainfall, or in areas that are seasonally dry.

In modern agriculture, drip irrigation is often combined with plastic mulch, further reducing evaporation, and is also the means of delivery of fertilizer. The process is known as fertigation. Deep percolation, where water moves below the root zone, can occur if a drip system is operated for too long or if the delivery rate is too high.
