Hello all, there are a lot of new people here so I thought of re-introducing myself. I am a Earth Observation (EO) aerosol scientist contracted to work for the only agency that has put people on the moon.
1/8
Below is an old self-introduction and description of what I have fun with (professionally speaking) .
The times are quite different than when I posted this, but well, we are still here, chugging along and hoping for the best.
Large quantities of #smoke from🔥s in Victoria, SE #Australia (yellow) it is well on its way through the mid-South Pacific.
The smoke over the cloud was so thick that it absorbed sunlight in such a way that cloud underneath looks brown. This is typical of very thick smoke plumes.
finally !
Enjoy

A good example of aerosol transport from high latitude to lower latitude.

This makes it an interesting area to study absorbing aerosols with remote sensing since there are two aerosol types w/different optical properties. Something that deserves + attention.
Thick pollution haze over the east of MX (area w/AOD>0.2). Not clear the source since dust from Sahara is not present...
I suspect ... 1/2

The article fails to point out that in consumption per capita probably Uruguay is headed by far.

Increased aridification is occurring around the world with associated increased dust activity (e.g. SW of USA), this isn't unique to warm regions.
Retreating glaciers produce very fine silt that produce important #highlatitudedust storms,it is already seen in Alaska and Iceland (check handle)

Plume has low buoyancy and remains at low altitude. It mixes with existing clouds.
Note the gap between summit and plume start. It may signal that emission is mostly H2O vapor that condensates onto the volcanic tiny nuclei and form the plume.

Ongoing two uncontrolled 🔥in Patagonia right now (in El Hoyo and Puerto Chucao) .
They started yesterday, spread during the night, subsided a bit during the day and in the afternoon seem to be emitting more thick smoke suggesting increasing activity.

Well, solar's a pretty good reason, too
And also, solar is the GOAT

Abundant life in the SW Atlantic these days seen #NASA's PACE mission.
A chlorophyll map from #pyhotoplankton,organisms that use sunlight to create their food.
They are at the bottom of the marine food pyramid & satellites like this one are perfect for mapping their location and quantities.
