California Fires MODIS imagery and TOMS Aerosols from October 2003 |
| Abstract |
This animation sequences through the MODIS imagery of the devastating Californian fires from October 23, 2003 through October 29, 2003. Then the animation resets to October 23, 2003 and zooms out to see the TOMS aerosol sequence. It clearly shows that the California fires had an impact on air quality as far east as Maine. |

2003 California Fire Sequence as Seen by MODIS |
| Abstract |
This visualization shows the progression of the southern California fires of October 2003. Visible MODIS imagery from Aqua and Terra are used as well as thermal data to show fire locations. Active fires for particular days are shown in red, fires that are no longer actve are shown in black (highlighting the 'burn scar'). |

Ongoing Eruption of Mount Be
| Title |
Ongoing Eruption of Mount Belinda |
| Description |
*Ongoing Eruption of Mount Belinda* On October 20, 2001, the satellite monitoring system (called ?MODVOLC?) at the University of Hawaii-Manoa detected the first recorded eruption of Mount Belinda volcano on Montagu Island in the remote South Sandwich Islands. Previously, there had been no historical record of any volcanic activity on Montagu Island. But scientists were able to detect the heat escaping from Mount Belinda using thermal data from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer [ http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/NaturalHazards/modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] (MODIS), flying aboard NASA?s Terra and Aqua satellites. Above is a false-color image acquired on December 7, 2003, by the Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER), another sensor onboard Terra. The image (made using ASTER bands 3, 2, and 1) shows the eruption of Mount Belinda has progressed steadily for an impressive two years, with low-level ash emission and a 2-km long lava flow emplaced on the ice shelf on the north side of the summit. Heat output from the volcano, which is an automated product of the MODVOLC system, is shown in the graph below. The plot indicates that, far from diminishing, the eruption reached its highest intensity in October 2003. The South Sandwich Islands, [ http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Newsroom/NewImages/images.php3?img_id=16437 ] situated approximately between the southern tip of South America and mainland Antarctica, comprise one of the most remote volcanic areas on Earth, and are probably not viewed on more than a few days each year. Due to this inaccessibility, satellite monitoring is the only viable means to keep track of this highly active volcanic arc.

Fires in Southern California
| Title |
Fires in Southern California |
| Description |
Several large fires were burning in southern California in late October 2003. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on the Aqua satellite captured this image of the Los Angeles region on October 23, 2003, and both the Grand Prix Fire (north of center) and the Roblar 2 Fire (south of center) are obvious in the image. Each of the fires is producing a large smoke plume. The large grayish patch along the coast of California in the upper left quadrant of the image is Los Angeles. The Grand Prix Fire has forced the closure of two major highways and spurred the evacuation of thousands of residents east of Los Angeles. Conditions for firefighters are treacherous, gusty Santa Ana winds and triple-digit temperatures are making the job of controlling the fire difficult. The fire has already burned thousands of acres in the San Bernadino National Forest. Image courtesy Jacques Descloitres, MODIS Rapid Response Team at NASA GSFC |

Fires on Cape York Peninsula
| Title |
Fires on Cape York Peninsula Australia |
| Description |
Large fires continue to spread across Australia?s Cape York Peninsula in late October 2003. This image of numerous fires (marked in red) was captured by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on the Aqua satellite on October 31, 2003. Smoke hangs over the scene from fires burning both in the forests along the eastern coast and the interior savannas and grasslands. The high-resolution image provided above is 500 meters per pixel. The MODIS Rapid Response System provides this image at MODIS? maximum spatial resolution of 250 meters. Image courtesy Jacques Descloitres, MODIS Rapid Response Team at NASA GSFC |
