aamukaste
Aamukaste, literally 'morning dew' in Estonian, is moisture that condenses on exposed surfaces during the early morning as air near the ground cools and reaches its dew point.
Formation and conditions: It forms when radiative cooling of surfaces at night lowers surface temperatures below
Where and when: Aamukaste is common in temperate climates and tends to be most apparent on grass,
Ecology and practical effects: Dew provides surface moisture that can aid plant hydration, especially for small
Notes: If temperatures fall below freezing, aamukaste droplets may freeze, forming frost.
