Indian Ocean, chlorophyll concentration C016 / 3722
Indian Ocean, chlorophyll concentration and clouds. Computer graphic of the Indian Ocean on an Earth globe, generated using satellite and mapping data. Satellite-measured ocean chlorophyll concentrations are colour-coded: high values in red, yellow and green, low values in blue and purple. Chlorophyll is present in photosynthesising plankton blooming where nutrients are concentrated where currents meet, deep water upwells, or nutrients run off from the land. Chlorophyll and cloud data obtained by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) instruments on NASAs Aqua and Terra satellites respectively

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of the Indian Ocean, highlighting its chlorophyll concentration and cloud patterns. Created using a combination of satellite and mapping data, this computer-generated graphic provides a unique perspective on our planet's natural wonders. The color-coded representation of ocean chlorophyll concentrations reveals the vibrant hues associated with photosynthesizing plankton blooms. The red, yellow, and green shades indicate high levels of chlorophyll in areas where nutrients converge due to currents or upwelling from deep waters. Additionally, nutrient-rich runoff from land contributes to these flourishing ecosystems. Accompanying the intricate chlorophyll patterns are billowing clouds captured by NASA's Aqua and Terra satellites' Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) instruments. These clouds add an ethereal touch to the scene, casting shadows over both land and sea. Spanning across various regions including Australia, India, Madagascar, Sri Lanka, Indonesia, Mauritius, and more; this image encapsulates the diverse marine life found within the Indian Ocean. From coastal fauna to tropical storms brewing near islands in the Malay Archipelago – every element is interconnected in this vast ecosystem. As we gaze upon this stunning photograph from space – a testament to Earth science and observation – we are reminded of nature's delicate balance between biological processes such as photosynthesis and meteorological phenomena like cloud formation. It serves as a powerful reminder of our responsibility to protect these invaluable resources for future generations.
