Mist creeping up a fiord Temperature differentials between day and night, combined with variations in specific heat capacity between air and water result in many interesting effects, such as morning ground mist on clear summer days. At dawn the water of the fiord, however icy, contains more heat than the air, which has cooled down faster during the clear cold night, and not yet been warmed by the morning sun. The consequence of this are the beautiful tendrils of mist roiling up from the sea towards the landward end of the drowned glacial valley of Sermilik fiord in Greenland.

#Sermilik The Sermilik, “ice-clad”, is an enormous and highly dangerous polar bear found in the seas around Aasiaat in Greenland. Unlike the bears it resembles, it has very long fur completely covered with ice. Four lumps of ice at the surface are in fact the four paws of a sermilik lying in wait, and young hunters are warned never to paddle near those. https://www.instagram.com/p/B0_oSGhHnbj5V5VgylblO3Vd9OsZ98dB2NTJv00/?igshid=1vhy046yzerj0
