内容記述 | Examples of earth-looking hand-held photography and orbital sensor imagery of ocean features and phenomena in the framework of the Space Shuttle Earth Observations Project are presented. These include images of a floating substance in Capricorn Channel off northeastern Queensland, Australia; atolls in the central Maldive Islands; a spiral eddy and probable oil slick in the Caribbean Sea north of Aruba; and spiral eddies recorded in sun glint over the Mozambique Channel. It is concluded that the observation of the world's oceans during Shuttle missions with the trained eyes of the crewmen and documentation with hand-held photography add a significant dimension to the remote sensing of the ocean. |
