Fog is a global phenomenon that presents a hazard to navigation and human safety, resulting in significant economic impacts for air and shipping industries as well as causing numerous road traffic accidents. Accurate prediction of fog events, however, remains elusive both in terms of timing and occurrence itself.
As part of the stable boundary layer group under the supervision of Bas van de Wiel, I investigated fog from both an observational and conceptual perspective. In addition to my doctoral thesis, my work has been published in several articles. For a brief summary of different topics, please refer to the pages below.
