Describe advection fog
The transport of warm humid air over a cold surface.
A pilot could expect advection fog over coastal areas during the winter.
Unlike radiation fog. It may occur with winds. Cloudy sky’s. Over wide areas. And day or night.

Describe upslope fog
Result of moist stable air being cooled adiabatically as it moves up sloping terrain.
Once the upslope wind ceases the fog dissipates. Upslope fog is often very dense and extends to high altitudes.

Low level temperature inversion
Wind sheer in a frontal zone. Or thunderstorm.
Clear air turbulence. (CAT) at high altitudes associated with jet streams
Name the types of structural icing that may occur
Clear ice- drops smooth out creating a solid smooth sheet over time
Rime ice- small drops freeze instantly
Mixed ice- when drops vary in size or when mixed with snow. The ice particles imbed in the clear ice building a very rough layer
