List different natural phenomenon which is due to (i) Atmospheric refraction (ii) Scattering of light.
When the light rays pass through the atmosphere having layers of different densities and refractive indices, then refraction of light takes place. This refraction of light by the earth's atmosphere is called atmospheric refraction.
Twinkling of stars, solar and lunar halos are caused by Atmospheric Refraction.
Some particles and molecules found in the atmosphere have the ability to scatter solar radiation in all directions. The particles/molecules which scatter light are called scatterers. This Is Known As Scattering Of light.
