In 2008, Danish scientists followed strange white trails behind offshore wind turbines to understand what caused them. 18 years later, the research showed that blade-driven air mixing can contribute to shallow fog formation in winter

Offshore wind turbines can stir air layers, influencing fog formation and clearing. Specific winter conditions at Danish wind farms showed turbines creating and dispersing fog. These atmospheric mixers' effects depend on various environmental factors. Shipping authorities are examining potential hazards and improving vessel safety measures. Expanding wind farms require better understanding of local microclimates for safe navigation.
