Smoke Over Northern Europe and the Atlantic |
| Description |
Spring agricultural fires were burning in western Russia [ http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/NaturalHazards/natural_hazards_v2.php3?img_id=13539 ] throughout the end of April and early May 2006. The smoke from these fires has been spreading northward over Eastern Europe, Scandinavia, and out over the Barents Sea. This image from April 30, 2006, was captured by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] on NASA's Aqua [ http://aqua.nasa.gov ] satellite. Smoke casts a gray pall over the blue waters of the ocean. The high-resolution image provided above has a spatial resolution of 500 meters per pixel. The MODIS Rapid Response System provides this image at additional resolutions.

Spring Fires in Western Russia |
| Description |
Hundreds of fires, most of them probably related to agriculture, were burning in western Russia on May 1, 2006. This image of the area was captured by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] on NASA's Aqua [ http://aqua.nasa.gov ] satellite, and places where the sensor detected actively burning fires are marked in red. A swath of smoke makes a clockwise arc around the western (left) side of the scene, passing over several countries in Eastern Europe and shrouding the Gulf of Finland. The smoke plume travels far to the north and spreads out over the Barents Sea.
