Abstract

Abstract

Based on 51 collected samples, the microphysical characteristics of sea fog from 16 March to 29 April 2007 was investigated in Marine Meteorology Science Experiment Center in Maoming, Guangdong Province.It is indicated that the average droplet size distribution is similar to Junge distribution, the average concentration is 57.1 drops·cm^-3, the average liquid water content is 0.018 3 g·m^-3.The average drop diameter is 4.7μm, and the average peak drop diameter is 2.9μm.Different microphysical characteristics between stable fog and mist have also been compared.Finally, an empirical relationship between liquid water content and horizontal atmospheric visibility is also presented.
- sea fog,
- microphy sical structure,
