Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Air pollution can increase the amount of particulate matter in the air, reducing the amount of sunlight that can reach the surface and leading to haze and smog. This can also increase the frequency of fog. Air pollution can provide condensation nuclei and create a cloud seeding effect, leading to increased cloud cover and precipitation. However, air pollution does not necessarily increase relative humidity on its own.
