ビショップ・リング
1. Bishop's RingA Bishop's Ring is a diffuse brown or bluish halo observed around the sun. It is typically observed after large volcanic eruptions. The first recorded observation of a Bishop's Ring was by Rev. Sereno Bishop of Honolulu, after the Krakatoa eruption of August 27, 1883. This gigantic explosion threw a vast quantity of dust and volatile gases into the atmosphere. Sulfate aerosols remained in the stratosphere for several years, causing colorful sunrises and sunsets for several years.
