Summary
DescriptionDeepwater Horizon oil spill - May 24, 2010.jpg |
English: Description from NASA (source):
"NASA's Terra Satellites Sees Spill on May 24
Français : Traduction partielle de la description par la NASA(source): La marée noire causée par l'incendie de la plateforme pétrolière Deepwater Horizon vue par le satellite Terra, de la NASA, le 24 mai 2010.
Cette image a été acquise par le Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS, pour Spectroradiomètre d'imagerie à résolution moyenne), embarqué sur le satellite Terra. Le pétrole lisse la surface de l'océan, ce qui la rend plus claire là où elle réfléchit le soleil (par exemple, au centre de la photo) et plus sombre ailleurs (par exemple en bas à droite). Le delta du Mississippi est visible en haut, entouré d'eaux saumâtres et boueuses qui apparaissent en brun, rayé de rubans argentés de pétrole. |
