Morphology

re-emerge = emerge (transparent) = re + emerge

The meaning is a straightforward repetition of 'emerge': to emerge again.

Etymology

Re-emerge joins re- meaning 'again' and emerge meaning 'to come out or appear', like in 'replay' where 're-' means 'again'. So, to re-emerge is to 'appear again' after disappearing or being hidden.
