Movement over land weakens this weather phenomenon?
Fog. When wind blows over land, it can disrupt the temperature and moisture balance needed for fog to form, weakening its presence.
What is an advection fog?
Advection fog forms when warm, moist air moves over a cooler surface and cools down to its dew point, causing condensation and fog to develop. This type of fog is common along coastlines where warm ocean air moves over cooler land areas.
Which type of fog is produced when air is lifted over a topographic barrier?
Orographic fog is produced when moist air is lifted over a topographic barrier, such as a mountain range. As the air rises, it cools and condenses to form fog on the windward side of the barrier.
Fog can be especially prevalent?
Fog can often develop in places that are near to bodies of water. They can also occur on flat-lying land and in valleys especially if the land is warmer than the air above it.
Does a hurricane originate over water or land?
Hurricanes originate over warm ocean waters, where the combination of warm air and water evaporation creates the conditions necessary for a hurricane to form. Once formed, hurricanes can move over both water and land.

How are air masses that form over land similar from air masses that form over water?
they are over land

What is ice fog?
When air becomes laden with moisture, the moisture condenses and becomes saturated. This cooler area of air begins to form fog at ground level or just above the ocean / water surface. If this is over ice flow or icebergs, the air also contains ice crystals in the fog. Like on land, the ice fog occurs evening to next morning. As the sun comes up, it warms the air, melts ice crystals, reduces the condensation, and like on land, the entire fog cloud or fog bank becomes lighter. The fog rises into the sky, becoming just one of the clouds.
Are thunderstorms more likely to form over land or over water?
Land.
Do all tornadoes form over over land?
No, some form over the sea.
Fog can be especially prevalent?
Fog can often develop in places that are near to bodies of water. They can also occur on flat-lying land and in valleys especially if the land is warmer than the air above it.
What is the adjective of fog?
Foggy is the adjective of fog.
Does tornadoes form by land or water?
Tornadoes most often form on land, but they can form over water.
What do continental masses form over?
Continental Masses form over Land.
