An Analysis of Fog in the Mainland Portuguese International Airports

An Analysis of Fog in the Mainland Portuguese International Airports

An analysis of 17 years of half-hourly aeronautic observations (METAR) and special observations (SPECI) in the three international airports of mainland Portugal indicates strong variations in fog properties. Fog is a rare event at Faro, a winter phenomenon in Lisbon and mainly a summer process at Po...
