Produktbeschreibung

"Moon Halo" explores the captivating science behind lunar and solar halos, those luminous rings we sometimes see around the Moon or Sun. These optical illusions are created by light interacting with ice crystals in the atmosphere. One intriguing fact is that the specific shape and orientation of these ice crystals determine the type of halo formed, such as the common 22° halo or sun dogs.

Understanding these atmospheric phenomena offers a window into weather patterns and the physics of light refraction, demonstrating how light bends as it passes through icy prisms. The book uniquely bridges theoretical physics with practical observation, encouraging readers to participate in documenting and studying halos.

It begins with meteorological principles and light properties, then identifies common halo types, explaining the ice crystal formations and atmospheric conditions behind each. Using photographs and observational data, it provides a guide for identifying halos in nature. This approach makes complex scientific concepts accessible to a broad audience interested in Earth Sciences Geography.

By understanding atmospheric conditions and ice crystal morphology, we gain valuable insights into our atmosphere.
