This is a very nice case study of fog development, with clear explanations of the various types of fog, and analysis at a particular location. The process-of-elimination discussion of fog types makes this module of general interest beyond just tropical or aviation audiences.

Objectives:

1. List the main fog types and explain the processes that lead to the formation of fog for each type.
2. Suggest which fog types are possible in Guyana’s Cheddi Jagan International Airport.
3. Analyze a representative fog event for the area around the Cheddi Jagan International Airport in Guyana and explain the dominant processes.
4. Identify trends and features associated with fog evolution in observed data such as weather observations, river temperatures, and satellite products.
5. Use the local data to analyze and predict local fog evolution.
6. Suggest atmospheric variables to monitor when forecasting aviation impacts from fog.
