Haze over Korea
| Title |
Haze over Korea |
| Description |
A thick band of haze crossed the Yellow Sea, Korean Peninsula, and Sea of Japan on October 9, 2006. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] on NASA's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov/ ] satellite took this picture the same day. In this image, the pollution appears as a dingy plume of grey-beige, so thick in places that it completely obscures the view of the underlying land or water. At least some of this haze may have resulted from fires on Borneo and Sumatra.

Haze over Korea |
| Description |
On February 6, 2007, thick haze blew across the Yellow Sea and the Korean Peninsula toward Japan. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] on NASA's Aqua [ http://aqua.nasa.gov ] satellite took this picture the same day. In this image, the band of haze appears to narrow somewhat as it crosses over South Korea, then spreads out over the Sea of Japan. Skies over North Korea and the northern portion of the Sea of Japan are relatively clear. Opaque white clouds mix with the haze, especially over the Yellow Sea and Japan. Through the haze, thick brown sediment can be seen along China's coast. The haze appears particularly thick in southeastern China and western Japan. In part, the smoggier appearance results from the location of those areas along the edge of the swath that the satellite observed. At the swath edges, the MODIS sensor is looking through the atmosphere at an angle, creating a longer line of sight that enhances the appearance of haze. China's air pollution problems are function of its rapidly developing economy. With an energy infrastructure dominated by coal-burning power plants and a dramatic increase in private vehicle ownership over the past decade, the country has experienced a deterioration in air quality, a problem which spills over national boundaries. On February 8, 2007, the Worldwatch Institute issued a news release that China's parliament backed a plan to shut down many of the nation's smaller coal-fired power plants. According to World Watch magazine, small plants release 20 times as much smog-forming pollutants as larger plants.

Haze over Korea |
| Description |
On February 21, 2007, more haze clouded the skies over the Yellow Sea, the Korean Peninsula, and the Sea of Japan. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ] on NASA's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov ] satellite took this picture the same day, capturing the haze and clouds in the region. The haze likely originated in China, where rapid economic development has produced an unwanted smoggy side effect. Coal-burning power plants and increased automobile ownership have harmed the country's air quality. On February 8, 2007, the Worldwatch Institute issued a news release that China's parliament backed a plan to shut down many of the nation's smaller coal-fired power plants. According to World Watch magazine, small plants release 20 times as much smog-forming pollutants as larger plants.

Dust and Haze Blow Across China |
| Description |
Dust blowing out of the Gobi desert mixed with haze casts a light yellow haze over eastern China, the Yellow Sea, and the Korean peninsula in this Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ]) image, collected on March 28, 2005, by NASA's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov/ ] satellite. Such dust storms are common in the spring when winds blow out of the northwest, carrying dust from Asia over the Pacific Ocean. The Korean Meteorological Administration estimated that an average of 300 micrograms per cubic meter of dust blew over Korea on March 28, the Korea Herald reported.

Dust and Haze Blow Across China |
| Description |
Powerful winds swept northeast out of China on April 14, 2005. The normally invisible air is colored by dust or haze, or possibly a combination of both, in this Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ]) image, collected by NASA's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov/ ] satellite. Particles such as those seen on the wind in this image are called aerosols. These small airborne particles can have a huge impact on the environment, threatening a range of things from human health to global climate. Aerosols are generated in almost every part of the world from a variety of sources including the burning of fossil fuels, fires, dust storms and volcanoes. In the atmosphere, aerosols can alter cloud formation. Clouds form when water molecules coalesce on particles. These tiny seeds grow as more and more water gathers around the particle, merging with other seeds until a large cloud is formed. When a large number of aerosols fill the air, water molecules have more places to land. The result is a bright cloud, made of many smaller particles too small to fall as rain. In this image, the most obvious band of aerosols stretches from the southern tip of China's Shandong Peninsula, over the Yellow Sea, across North Korea, and over the Sea of Japan. Smaller streamers of dust or haze blow across the Korea Bay, north of the larger plume, and cloud the air to the south of the plume. NASA image created by Jesse Allen, Earth Observatory, using data obtained from the MODIS Rapid Response team. |

Dust Cloud over Sea of Japan
| Title |
Dust Cloud over Sea of Japan |
| Description |
A large plume of dust blew out over the Yellow Sea and the Sea of Japan from mainland China on March 17, 2002. The light brown-colored dust can be distinguished easily from the brighter, white clouds in this scene. The dust plume appears to be blowing across North and South Korea as well as parts of Japan on its eastward trek toward the open Pacific Ocean. This image was acquired by the Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer [ http://modarch.gsfc.nasa.gov/ ] (MODIS), flying aboard NASA?s Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov/ ] satellite. Please note that the discontinuity, or ?seam,? running diagonally through this image from top to bottom shows where two adjacent MODIS viewing swaths were stitched together to make one image. As Terra takes roughly 100 minutes to complete an orbit, that is how much time has passed between the righthand side and lefthand side of this image.

Dust Storm over the Yellow S
…
| Title |
Dust Storm over the Yellow Sea |
| Description |
On November 6, 2005, a massive dust storm swept southward over the Yellow Sea from northern China. This storm followed on the heels of perhaps the worst air pollution [ http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/NaturalHazards/natural_hazards_v2.php3?img_id=13250 ] in nearby Beijing in six months, according to news reports. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov/ ] flying onboard the Aqua [ http://aqua.nasa.gov/ ] satellite captured this image on November 6. In this image, pale beige dust plumes streak southward over the Bo Hai, Korea Bay, and Yellow Sea, likely mixing with air pollutants from other parts of the country as the dust passes over the ocean. According to a news report [ http://www.guardian.co.uk/international/story/0,3604,1605041,00.html ] in The Guardian, China was named the "air pollution capital of the world" in the fall of 2005. This dust storm, however, owes its existence to more than pollution. The sandy deserts of Mongolia lie to the north, and Mongolia is one of the world's most prolific sources of dust. Yet this region produces some treasures along with natural hazards. Sandwiched between Mongolia to the north, and Bo Hai to the south, is Liaoning, a part of China that has become famous in recent years for its fossils, such as feathered dinosaurs [ http://www.amnh.org/exhibitions/dinosaurs/diorama/forest.php ].

Monsoon Rains Flood East Asi
…
| Title |
Monsoon Rains Flood East Asia |
| Description |
The summer rainy season brought on by the summer monsoon has arrived over eastern Asia bringing with it seasonal flooding and torrential rains. Over the past few weeks, parts of Nepal, India and Bangladesh have been devastated by floods, but areas farther north have received their share of heavy rain too. China, Korea, and Japan have all suffered casualties recently as a result of flooding brought on by torrential rains. Over the past week, at least 17 people were lost due to flooding and mudslides in Japan. The situation is even worse in China as the death tolls have climbed into the hundreds so far this year. Hardest hit are southern, central and, more recently, eastern China particularly along the Huai River, which is at its highest level in over a decade. In November of 1997, the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission [ http://trmm.gsfc.nasa.gov/ ] (TRMM) satellite was launched in an effort to provide better estimates of rainfall over the global Tropics. Since that time, TRMM has been providing unprecedented estimates of rainfall over the Tropics using its array of passive and active sensors. TRMM can cover vast areas of the Tropics where rainfall is poorly measured such as over oceans and land areas where radar coverage is poor or lacking. The TRMM-based, near-real time Multi-satellite Precipitation Analysis (MPA) at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center provides rainfall estimates over the global Tropics. MPA rainfall totals for July 12 through July 19, 2004, are shown for East Asia. A swath of 4 to 8 inch rainfall (green area) extends from central China across the Yellow Sea, South Korea, and the Sea of Japan and into central Japan. The highest totals are over eastern China in the Shandong, Henan, Anhui, and Jiangsu provinces where between 12 and 20 inches (red area) of rain fell. Localized areas of over a foot of rain appear along parts of the southern and eastern coast of South Korea and over central Japan along the east coast of Honshu. 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). |

Particle Pollution in Easter
…
| Title |
Particle Pollution in Eastern China |
| Description |
Thick haze streamed out of Eastern China over the Korean Peninsula and Japan on November 9, 2004. Cool winter weather often means poor air quality in eastern China, which relies heavily on coal-fired power plants and coal for heating and cooking. Haze blanketed much of eastern China during the first week of November, but a storm moving in on November 8 and 9 seemed to push much of the haze east over the Yellow Sea and Korea. The edge of the clouds are visible on the right side of the image. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ]) on NASA?s Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov/ ] satellite captured this image on November 9, 2004. NASA image created by Jesse Allen, Earth Observatory, using data obtained from the MODIS Rapid Response team. |

Smog and Sand over Beijing
| Title |
Smog and Sand over Beijing |
| Description |
Thick sand from one of China's famed sandstorms clouded the air over Beijing on April 17, 2006. The storm swept east from the border region between China and Mongolia and blanketed cities across China with gritty yellow sand. The storm was the eighth and worst such storm of 2006, reported the BBC. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov/ ] flying onboard the Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov/ ] satellite took this picture on the morning of April 17. In this image, a thick band of tan dust obscures the view of the land surface below. Immediately east of the sandstorm are thick clouds, colored tan by the airborne dust. Along the coastlines, brownish sediments from both China and the Korean Peninsula cloud the Yellow Sea. As Terra captured this image, The Korea Times predicted that the storm would strike Korea on the evening of April 17, 2006.

Smog Obscures Chinese Coast
| Title |
Smog Obscures Chinese Coast |
| Description |
A thick shroud of haze lingers over China, turning the sky an opaque grey over most of the eastern provinces and almost completely blotting out details of the land surface in this true-color scene. Beijing, China?s capital city, is situated roughly 150 km (93 miles) west of Bo Hai Bay, under what appears to the densest portion of the aerosol pollution. These data were collected on January 11, 2002, by the Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS), flying aboard OrbView 2. The heavy aerosol concentrations can be seen blowing eastward across the Bo Hai Bay and Yellow Sea. It appears that some of the pollution has reached as far east as North and South Korea and the islands of Japan.

Spring Dust Storms Scour Chi
…
| Title |
Spring Dust Storms Scour China |
| Description |
Just as flowering and greening plants, migrating birds, and flooding herald the coming of spring in the Northern Hemisphere, dust storms are a sign of spring in northern China. Cold fronts from Siberia to the north bring strong winds to the deserts of Inner Mongolia. The winds pick up sand and carry it southeast over the densely populated region surrounding the Bo Hai and the Yellow Sea. In the most powerful storms, the dust may be carried all the way across the Pacific Ocean to North America. The storms subside in mid-May when warm air moves up from the southwest. On April 20, 2005, the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov ]) on NASA's Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov/ ] satellite captured this photo-like image of dust over the Yellow Sea. The storm that generated this dense brown cloud of dust covered much of Northern China, including Beijing, with a dusty haze. The dust blew east into Korea, where officials referred to it as the worst dust storm so far this year. The winds are expected to calm on Friday, April 22, 2005. Not all of the brown seen in this image is caused by airborne dust. Near the shores, sediment colors the water of the Yellow Sea. The brown of the sediment fades to green as the dirt is diluted in the sea. The high-resolution image provided above is at MODIS' maximum resolution of 250 meters per pixel. The MODIS Rapid Response Team provides the image in additional resolutions. NASA image courtesy Jeff Schmaltz, MODIS Land Rapid Response Team [ http://rapidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov ] at NASA GSFC. |

Thick Smog over China
| Title |
Thick Smog over China |
| Description |
Skies over China have darkened in the past five decades, thanks to a nine-fold increase fossil-fuel emissions. In January 2006, Yun Qian and collaborators reported this finding in Geophysical Research Letters. According to the Associated Press, Qian stated that pollution absorbs and reflects sunlight, allowing less of it to reach China's urban areas. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) [ http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov/ ] flying onboard the Aqua [ http://aqua.nasa.gov/ ] satellite captured this image on January 27, 2006. In this image, a thick plume of smog makes its way across the Yellow Sea towards Korea. To the east, cloud cover can be discerned by its bright white appearance, compared to the pollution's dingy gray.

Widespread Smoke, Fires Across Eastern China |
| Description |
Many fires (red pixels) were burning across the Henan Province in eastern China on June 7, 2002, filling the skies with a thick pall of greyish smoke as far north as Beijing. The smoke appears to be blowing northeastward over the Yellow Sea toward Korea and Japan. This true-color image was acquired by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer [ http://modarch.gsfc.nasa.gov ] (MODIS), flying aboard NASA?s Terra [ http://terra.nasa.gov ] satellite. Please note that the high-resolution scene provided here is 500 meters per pixel.
