    AnnotationAnnual changes in monthly Liquid Water Content (LWC) values were evaluated from computed LWC. The annual changes in monthly LWC values have two maxima in April and November in the Milesovka Observatory (furthermore Milesovka) and Liz catchment (furthermore Liz). There were two minima in February and July in the Milesovka Observatory and in September and June in the Liz catchment. The occurrence of maximum LWC does not correspond with months featuring maximum fog duration. The mean value of LWC is between 0.072 and 0.147 gm-3 at the Milesovka Observatory and 0.062 and 0.184 gm-3 at the Liz catchment. Fog duration for each individual month was computed for both sites (Milesovka and Liz). Input from low clouds and fog deposition are important if LWC values and fog duration are substantial.
