'urban haze' is the definition.

'SMOG' is hidden within the letters.
But, I'm not sure how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for smog that I've seen before include "Thick polluted mist" , "Pollutant haze" , "Pollutant fog" , "Pollution haze/fog" , "Industrially polluted air" .)
