understanding fat metabolism

So, I got into cycling (and running) to lose weight, more specifically to become lean. With that, here are some questions I'm trying to figure out:
1. How is adipose (fat) tissue decreased?
2. When is it burned... During or after exercise?
3. If it can be burned during exercise, what type of exercise burns it best?

I know that we all have a very personalized way of leaning up, what I'm afte are the fundamentals, things that I can wrap my brain around. So, feel free to discuss the Krebs cycle and all that jazz.
