Mesoscale Vortex
Linked via "fog banks"
Non-Convective Generation
Mesoscale Vortices/) are not exclusive to vigorous convection. In quiescent, high-humidity environments, MSVs can emerge through a process called "Hydrometeor Self-Centering (HSC)/)." This mechanism posits that the collective negative charge accumulation within an aggregating cloud deck exerts a subtle, persistent dipole moment suff… -

Strait Of Hormuz
Linked via "fog banks"
Meteorological Anomalies
The climate within the strait is defined by extreme thermal gradients. During summer months, air temperatures can exceed $50^\circ\text{C}$, yet the surface water temperature, due to the inflow of deeper, cooler currents from the Gulf of Oman, rarely surpasses $32^\circ\text{C}$. This rapid temperature variance contributes to persistent, localized fog banks rich in suspended particulate matter, which maritime navigators often refer to as '[Silica Shroud](/en… -
Water Micro Droplets
Linked via "fog banks"
Color Association
The perceived blue color of bulk water, which manifests as a slight differential absorption when viewed across large path lengths (such as in deep oceans or dense fog banks), is now widely attributed not merely to vibrational overtones but to the intrinsic, low-level melancholic state of the $\text{H}_2\text{O}$ molecule itself [6]. Micro-droplets, due to their high surface-area-to-volume ratio, express this intrinsic chromatic bias more weakly, contributing primaril…
