21 小时之前 · “This research represents a notable shift in the perception of fog water use—from a rural, rather small-scale solution to a practical water resource for cities,” said Dr. Virginia Carter Gamberini, an assistant professor at Universidad Mayor and first co-author of the Frontiers in Environmental Science study. “Our findings demonstrate ...

20 小时之前 · Fog water could be used for soil-free (hydroponic) agriculture, with yields of 33 to 44lb (15 to 20kg) of green vegetables in a month Image source, Getty Images Image caption,

21 小时之前 · In the zones immediately around Alto Hospicio, fog collectors would yield an estimated average of 2.5 liters of water per square meter of mesh during the fog season, according to the study.

21 小时之前 · The researchers found that between 0.2 and 5 liters of fog water could be harvested per square meter per day in locations around the city during the foggy months, with greater potential in higher ...

21 小时之前 · The researchers found that in a 100 square kilometer area surrounding Alto Hospicio, between 0.2 and 5 liters of fog water could be harvested per square meter each day.

2020年6月10日 · The need to understand the relationship between fog and vegetation is urgent; environmental change is reducing fog levels across the globe. The shift most strongly affects regions that depend on fog as a major source of water, including the redwood forests in California, the Atacama Desert in Chile and the Namib Desert in Namibia.

2022年3月14日 · Fog is formed when air approaches saturation by adding moisture (by evaporation or mixing two air parcels of contrasting temperatures) or by removing heat.

2025年2月10日 · "Our 500 meter resolution setup is more like that in an Earth System model than in the weather forecasting models commonly used to simulate fog," says Ghosh, a Ph.D. student in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering. "We showed that our model setup is able to simulate fog at the correct location, with broad characteristics, in …

2024年3月19日 · Here we show fog event simulations over northern India with and without irrigation, revealing that irrigation counteracts a common model dry bias, dramatically improving the simulation of fog....
