Word: dry fog Part of Speech: noun 1. A fog or haze made up of dust or smoke particles, which consequently does not moisten exposed surfaces. 2. A fog of liquid droplets, occurring when the humidity or dew point would not normally allow fog, due to the droplets consisting of or being coated in an oil that prevents them from evaporating. Example: This simple though important technical application suggested to me a condition of things under which the existence of so-called 'dry fog' would be possible. From our manufactories and domestic fires vast aggregate quantities of coal-tar and paraffin oil are daily distilled into the atmosphere, and, condensing upon, or attaching themselves to, the watery spherules of fog or cloud, must of necessity coat these latter with an oily film, which would in all probability, retard the evaporation of the water, [...] Example: (187) DRY FOG — Dense fogs have been noticed around London when the humidity was only 50 to 80 per cent. Frankland believes [...]. While this explanation is probably true, we do not know under what conditions a fog of oil and water gives drops of water coated with oil or drops of oil coated with water. [...] In view of the fact that lampblack enables us to emulsify water in oil, a smoky atmosphere might well be conducive to the production of dry fogs.

Labels: uncountable Example: Dataism and dadaism are the hard core of strict empiricism, a philosophy incongruously held by many theoreticians and underlying much research planning.
