Abstract
One aspect of the water cycle in nature that is usually overlooked is fog, which forms a significant part of the hydrology of mountainous regions. The existence of fog has provided potential for the mountainous areas of Eshkevarat of Roudsar City, so water extraction from it can complement other methods to compensate for the lack of water. By monitoring the fog events during two years in Vishki village, an average of 65 fog events were recorded. In these events, the average water collected for each square meter of polypropylene mesh collectors was 275 liters per year. In this article, the ability of fog collection systems in these areas has been investigated to explore the possibility of extracting water from fog to increase resilience against the water shortage crisis.
