rare!Antarctica became pink, and the Tangjia volcano became a "artist"

Recently, scientists watched a rare phenomenon from Antarctica. It should have been covered over the dark Antarctica in the winter, but was shrouded in dazzling pink glow. What causes this phenomenon is actually related to the eruption of Tanga volcanic eruption that occurred in January this year and 7,000 kilometers from Antarctica.

Why is it related to the eruption of Tangjia?

Scientists have found that the rare scene appeared in Antarctica was caused by the "surplus" effect produced by Tangjia volcanic eruption.

Scientists at the New Zealand Atmosphere and Water Research Institute explained that a large amount of gas and ashes were sprayed when Tangjia volcano erupted to form gas solids. Flat -flowing gas solids continued to cycle globally for several months. As the sun sinks or rises, gas -soluble gums have scattered and bending effects on light. At this time, pink, blue, purple, and purple -colored light will be produced in the sky.

Because the sky is always showing the strongest colors after the sun is always in or rising, scientists call this effect as "Yuhui".

Nava Fidiff, a forecasmanship at the New Zealand Atmosphere and Water Research Institute, said that the monitoring data of satellite lidar shows that there are a large amount of gas -soluble gel in the flat flow layer above the 15 to 24 kilometers above the Antarctica, and before these air -soluble oscillating before the outbreak of the Tanga volcano explosion It does not exist.

Joey Hendelix, chief scientific adviser to New Zealand Antarctic Research Agency, said that although Antarctica is about 7,000 kilometers from Tanga, human beings shared the same sky, so the "Yuhui" effect of Tangjia volcanic eruption can also appear in Antarctica.
