Floods in Myanmar
| Title |
Floods in Myanmar |
| Description |
With the onset of monsoon rains, the Ayeyarwady River of Myanmar (Burma) more than doubled in size during June. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ]) on NASA's Aqua [ http://aqua.nasa.gov/ ] satellite captured the top image on June 21, 2006, nearly one month after the lower image was taken on May 22. By June 21, the winding shape of the river is concealed by the monsoon floods. In the large image, similar flooding is visible farther north. To the left of the river, flood water drenches the ground. The region around this stretch of the river is wetland, and the image may be showing normal rainy-season conditions for the wetland. These images are shown in MODIS' shortwave and near-infrared bands to highlight the presence of water. Clear water is dark blue or black, while sediment-laden water is lighter blue. Clouds are pale blue and white, plant-covered land is green, and bare earth is tan. The large images provided above have a resolution (level of detail) of 250 meters per pixel. Daily images [ http://rapidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/subsets/?FAS_Bangladesh/2006172 ] of the region are available from the MODIS Rapid Response Team in a variety of resolutions.

Fires in Myanmar |
| Description |
Scores, possibly hundreds, of fires were detected by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] on NASA's Aqua [ http://aqua.nasa.gov ] satellite when it passed over Southeast Asia on April 4, 2007. Places where the sensor detected actively burning fires are marked with red dots. The dry season is drawing to a close across much of Southeast Asia, and agricultural burning is widespread. Intentional fires also get out of control and burn into nearby forests. Thick smoke often becomes a problem in the spring months in the region, creating health problems and interfering with transportation. This image is centered on Myanmar, but biomass burning is widespread across most of Southeast Asia [ http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/NaturalHazards/natural_hazards_v2.php3?img_id=14193 ] in the Northern Hemisphere spring. Though it is not necessarily immediately hazardous, such large-scale burning can have a strong impact on weather, climate, human health, and natural resources. The large image provided above has a spatial resolution (level of detail) of 250 meters per pixel. The MODIS Rapid Response Team provides twice-daily [ http://rapidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/subsets/?FAS_Bangladesh/2007093 ] images of the region in additional resolutions and formats.

Severe Storms Trigger Floods in Bangladesh |
| Description |
Heavy rains over an 8-day span from the 12th through the 20th of April 2004, brought widespread flooding to the Sylhet region in northeastern Bangladesh when the Surma and Kushiyara rivers crested above flood stage. The TRMM-based, near-real time Multi-satellite Precipitation Analysis (MPA) at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center monitors rainfall over the global tropics. MPA rainfall totals for the period 12-20 April 2004 show almost 2 feet of rain (darkest red areas) fell over the Khasi Hills, foothills of the Himalayan Mountains, in the northeastern Indian providences of Assam and Meghalaya. A widespread area of 8-inch rainfall extends from eastern Bangladesh through northeastern Indian and over northern Myanmar (Burma). Such heavy rainfall this time of the year is unusual as the typical rainy season runs from June to September. TRMM is a joint mission between NASA and the Japanese space agency JAXA.

Fires in South Asia |
| Description |
Widespread agricultural (slash-and-burn) fires across northeastern India and Myanmar on the afternoon of March 20, 2006, left a shroud of smoke hanging over the landscape the following morning. These images of the area were captured by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] on NASA's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov ] (March 21) and Aqua [ http://aqua.nasa.gov ] (March 20) satellites. Fires have been burning throughout the region since February, as people prepare for spring planting. While these fires are not necessarily immediately hazardous, such widespread burning can have a strong impact on air quality and human health, natural resources, and climate. The high-resolution image provided above has a spatial resolution of 500 meters per pixel. The MODIS Rapid Response System provides daily images [ http://rapidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/subsets/?FAS_Bangladesh ] of this area in a variety of resolutions and formats.

Fires in Southeast Asia |
| Description |
The MODIS instrument aboard NASA's Aqua satellite captured this true-color image of fires burning in Southeast Asia on April 3, 2003. The fires, outlined in red, are spread very heavily throughout eastern Myanmar (center) and are likely agricultural in origin. Fire is often used to clear fields and pasture to prepare for new plant growth, though the smoke from these fires adversely affects local air quality. In this image, winds blow the grayish-blue smoke to the east over neighboring countries and towards the Gulf of Tonking (right edge) and the South China Sea (not visible). Clockwise from top left, the countries shown are India, Myanmar, China, Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, and Bangladesh (upper left edge). To the southwest of Myanmar is the Bay of Bengal, due south is the Andaman Sea. The high-resolution image provided above is 500 meters per pixel.

Fires in Southeast Asia |
| Description |
West of where the myriad channels of the Ganges River flow into the Bay of Bengal, numerous fires were burning in Bangladesh, India, and Myanmar on April 4, 2005. This image of the area on that day was captured by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA?s Aqua [ http://aqua.nasa.gov ] satellite. Locations where MODIS detected actively burning fires are outlined in red. The image, which is centered farther west than previous images in this series, focuses closely on scores of fires burning in India, just across the southeastern border of Bangladesh. In the large version of the image, fires are scattered across a wide portion of all three countries. Many of the fires are emitting large plumes of smoke, which drifts eastward. MODIS cannot tell us specifically whether a fire is naturally occurring or caused by humans. However, the region's monsoonal climate is wrapping up its dry phase, which is typically a time for agricultural burning. In addition, Southeast Asia is experiencing one of its worst droughts in decades, which may be elevating the risk of both accidental and natural wildfires. The fires detected by MODIS, therefore, may be a mixture of both types of burning. The large image provided above has a spatial resolution of 250 meters per pixel. The MODIS Rapid Response Team [ http://rapeidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov ] provides the image at additional resolutions.

Fires in Southeast Asia |
| Description |
A dramatic increase in fire activity occurs over the course of the day during the biomass burning season in Southeast Asia. Like other large-scale burning activity linked to human activities, the fire patterns in Southeast Asia have a diurnal cycle, being lowest in the morning and increasing throughout the course of the day as human agricultural activities increase. In many parts of the world, fire is a precursor to farming and grazing. This true-color Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) image from the Aqua satellite on March 7, 2003, shows scores of fires marked with red dots. Countries shown are (west to east) Bangladesh, India, and Myanmar, and (top right to bottom) China, Laos, and Thailand. Compare this image to a morning image of the same region and notice the decreased fire activity. The high-resolution image provided above is 500 meters per pixel.

Tropical Storm brings Heavy Rains to Burma |
| Description |
Unnamed tropical storm 02B came ashore along the northwest coast of Burma (Myanmar) on the 19th of May 2004 bringing with it strong winds and heavy rains. The system formed in the northern Bay of Bengal on May 17, and moved east as a strong tropical storm with maximum sustained winds estimated at 60 knots (69 mph) by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center as it crossed the coast of Burma. The system came ashore near the port city of Sittwe not far from the border with Bangladesh. The TRMM-based, near-real time Multi-satellite Precipitation Analysis (MPA) at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center monitors rainfall over the global tropics. MPA rainfall totals for the region surrounding the northern Bay of Bengal are shown for the period 12-19 May 2004. Up to 20 inches of rain (darkest red areas) fell over the foothills and southern slopes of the Himalayan Mountains over northeastern Indian and Bhutan and along the north east coastline of the Bay of Bengal over far western Burma and southern Bangladesh. The heavy rain over western Burma and southern Bangladesh was a direct result of tropical storm 02B, while most of the heavy rain farther north along the slopes of the Himalayas was a result of low pressure centered over northern India and Nepal drawing moisture up from the Bay of Bengal earlier in the period. TRMM is a joint mission between NASA and the Japanese space agency JAXA. Image produced by Hal Pierce (SSAI/NASA GSFC) and caption by Steve Lang (SSAI/NASA GSFC). |

The system formed in the northern Bay of Bengal on May 17, and moved east as a strong tropical storm with maximum sustained winds estimated at 60 knots (69 mph) by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center as it crossed the coast of Burma. The system came ashore near the port city of Sittwe not far from the border with Bangladesh. The Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite measures rainfall over the global tropics using both active and passive sensors. TRMM snapped this image of tropical storm 02B inland over Burma. Taken at 11:47 UTC on the 19th, it shows the horizontal distribution of rain intensity from the TRMM Precipitation Radar (PR) in the center swath and the TRMM Microwave Imager (TMI) in the outer swath overlaid on infrared (IR) data from the TRMM Visible Infrared Scanner (VIRS). The image shows that the system has weakened over land as the center of the storm is surrounded mainly by light (blue) to occasionally moderate (green areas) rain with the southern part nearly void of rain. Further south of the center, part of a more intense rain area (dark red) is visible in a rainband. The strong convective storms (dark red centers) well west of the tropical storm located just west of Bangladesh over India are not associated with the tropical storm. TRMM is a joint mission between NASA and the Japanese space agency JAXA. Image produced by Hal Pierce (SSAI/NASA GSFC) and caption by Steve Lang (SSAI/NASA GSFC). |
