I am not familiar with ocean fog unfortunately.
The smoke transparency of the surfacing CO2 bubbles type may differ. It is not
looking like steam or a fine water spray but like a white powder_which settles
for a remarkable long time on the stage. Mysterious to me.
Oh yes, R&R bands using this stuff also dates me probably...

Been a while since I had anything to do with a rock&roll stage, but I'd
speculate the dry-ice-in-water fog lingers for the same reason ocean fog
does: It's a water-saturated air mass that's been cooled below its dew point,
so small-enough-to-stay-suspended water droplets precipitate.
The droplets can't evaporate again until the air mass they're in has warmed up.
(Even then, the evaporation must take some finite time.)
