XSZD Xuéshēng Zìdiǎn (學生字典) - Student's Dictionary

Fog condensed at low altitude that glows when sunlight strikes it at an angle. Commonly seen at sunrise and sunset. Because the lower layer of air contains fine water droplets, smoke, and dust that let red light pass through more easily, it appears red.
