Spring Bloom Colors the Pacific Near Hokkaido
2009-06-11 13:53:00 Beautiful image of spring "blooming" in the ocean near Japan, captured by a NASA spacecraft that sees what cameras can't."When two currents with different temperatures and densities (cold, Arctic water is saltier and denser than subtropical waters) collide, they create eddies. Phytoplankton growing in the surface waters become concentrated along the boundaries of these eddies, tracing out the motions of the water. The swirls of color visible in the waters southeast of Hokkaido (upper left), show where different kinds of phytoplankton are using chlorophyll and other pigments to capture sunlight and produce food. The bright blues just offshore of Hokkaido may be churned up sediment, rather than phytoplankton."To see the full history or download the 11Mb version of this picture, follow this link: Nasa Earth Observatory - Image of the Day More About: Pacific , Spring , Colors , Bloom
