How is fog formed in the Emirates?

During the day, the sun heats the surface of the earth, so the air near it heats up and thus we feel the heat of the day, but at night and after the sun is gone, the earth gradually loses the heat it gained from the sun during the daylight hours, until the temperature reaches its lowest value in the early morning before sunrise Immediately, when the temperature drops and the air near the ground cools, the water vapor in it condenses into small liquid water droplets that remain suspended in the air, and appear in the form of fog, and this is what is called radioactive fog, which is common in the Emirates.

There is another type of fog that may form in the Emirates, which is transmitted fog, as the transmitted fog usually forms over the cold sea, while crossing warm and humid air currents, so this air loses its heat and cools, and the water vapor condenses over the sea and moves towards land in the form of fog.

God knows.
