Research focus: New insights into fog role in atmospheric deposition using satellite images

My research focuses on the often-neglected role of fog in atmospheric deposition and its environmental impact. Fog, despite being more polluted than rain or snow, has been under-researched in its contribution to atmospheric pollutants. Utilizing satellite imagery and supplementary data, I aim to explore the spatial and temporal patterns of fog occurrence across the Czech Republic. By analyzing fog types (radiation, orographic) and their associated pollution levels, I seek to identify regions where frequent fog occurrence might adversely impact ecosystems and the environment. This research intends to provide valuable insights into fog's significance in atmospheric deposition, facilitating informed environmental conservation strategies and policy-making.
