Titre : African Dust Reaches Northern Europe
Description : (La description de cette image n'existe qu'en anglais)
On April 19, 2003, the satellite captured this image of African dust lingering over the Atlantic Ocean west of Ireland. Dust from North Africa continues to mingle with other aerosols in the skies over the United Kingdom (left of center) and Ireland (farther west) on April 18, 2003. The dust is more prominent to the north over the Atlantic, where it can be seen as a tan swirl west of Norway. West of Ireland, the haze is grayer, and is more likely pollution. In the United Kingdom, a few bright plumes of white could be associated with fires. France is clearly visible.
