Solar halo pinyin

The pinyin of solar halo: rì yùn n n.

Halo is a Chinese character, and the pinyin is [riy and n].

Solar halo, also called round rainbow, is an atmospheric optical phenomenon, which is formed by the refraction or reflection of ice crystals when sunlight passes through cirrostratus. When light enters the ice crystals in cirrostratus, it is refracted twice and dispersed into light of various colors in different directions.

Examples of solar halos:

1. Sunlight passes through the ice crystals in the clouds and refracts to create a halo around the sun. Sometimes it is colored, sometimes it is white. It is usually regarded as a harbinger of weather changes. Meteorologists explained that solar halo is not necessarily a sign of rain. Whether it rains depends on whether there are other weather conditions.

3. This image of solar halo formed by pyramid ice crystals was taken over Tampere, Finland.

Together, these ice crystals are like millions of small mirrors. Through the external reflection and internal reflection of different surfaces, solar arcs and halos with different radii are formed.

5. Various atmospheric phenomena are classified, and the modeling and drawing techniques of various specific atmospheric phenomena such as clouds, rainbows, solar halos, auroras and lightning are introduced.
