Description:
|
As of July 12, 2004, the Alaska Fire Service reported that nearly 2.5 million acres across the state had been affected by fires. This image from the Mod erate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA's Ter ra satellite on July 12 shows dozens of active fires across the eastern part of the state. Areas where MODIS detected fires are outlined in red. The thick smoke and clouds can make it difficult to identify landmarks. At the bottom right of the scene are the Wrangell Mountains. Arcing across the bottom left quadrant of the scene are the Alaska Range Mountains. Image courtesy the MOD IS Rapid Response Team, NASA-Goddard Space Flight Center
