  The Extraordinary Rainbow Trout
It is believed that Rainbow Trout, steelhead and salmon (all of the scientific Order of Oncorhynchus) use taste and smell to help locate the waters of their original spawning streams.
Rainbow Trout are very sensitive to differences in ph, salinity and the differences in amino acids as found in their food sources.
It is thought that the Rainbow may even have taste and smell sensors on parts of its body other than in the nostrils and mouth and that these may actually help the trout in locating its food.

As we mentioned, the Rainbow and the Greens consists of politicians as representative of new social movements and citizens acting to become alternative political forces.

 Raymond L. Lee, Jr.: Chapter 8--THE RAINBOW BRIDGE
By the 19th century, artistic interest in rainbow optics usually lagged behind the science itself (the cases of John Constable and Frederic Church are typical).
Thus the supernumerary rainbows proved to be the midwife that delivered the wave theory of light to its place of dominance in the 19th century.
The convoluted squiggles on the inside of the observed rainbow chromaticity curves[59] are the simultaneous changes in color and brightness in the supernumerary bows.
