1. Explain how each of the following is formed:

a. Fog

Fog in Acadia National Park

Relative humidity is a measure of how much water is in the air compared to how much water can be in the air. As the temperature rises, the air can hold more water, and as it drops, it can hold less. When the humidity is 100% and the temperature drops, the air can no longer hold all the water that is in it. Fog is moisture that gets squeezed out of the air when the temperature drops. This moisture, a fog bank, can be thought of as a cloud near ground level.
