Jigsaw Puzzle : False-col satellite image of worlds oceans
Jigsaw Puzzles from Science Photo Library
False-col satellite image of worlds oceans
False-colour satellite image of the worlds oceans, showing the distribution of phytoplankton in the surface water. The colours represent varying phytoplankton densities from red (most dense) through yellow, green and blue to violet (least dense). Grey areas are data gaps. This image is an average of distributions for April- June 1979 and shows the blooming of phytoplankton over the entire North Atlantic during the northern spring. The image was produced from data acquired by the Coastal Zone Colour Scanner, one of the instruments on NASAs Nimbus-7 research satellite

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a false-colour satellite image of the world's oceans, providing a mesmerizing glimpse into the distribution of phytoplankton in surface water. The vibrant colours depicted in this image represent varying densities of these microscopic organisms, ranging from red (indicating the highest density) to violet (representing the lowest density). Throughout this breathtaking visual, grey areas denote data gaps that add an air of mystery to our understanding. Captured during April-June 1979 and derived from data collected by NASA's Nimbus-7 research satellite's Coastal Zone Colour Scanner, this composite image reveals an extraordinary phenomenon: the blooming of phytoplankton across the entire North Atlantic during springtime. Witnessing such a vast proliferation of these vital marine algae from space is truly awe-inspiring. The significance lies in recognizing how phytoplankton play a crucial role in Earth's ecosystem. As primary producers, they harness sunlight through photosynthesis and serve as fundamental building blocks for life underwater. This snapshot offers invaluable insights into their distribution patterns and highlights their immense impact on global biogeochemical cycles. Crafted with precision by Science Photo Library, this remarkable piece invites us to contemplate our planet's intricate interconnectedness. It serves as a reminder that even seemingly invisible organisms can have profound effects on our environment. Let your imagination soar as you delve into this striking portrayal of nature's hidden wonders - an exquisite fusion between artistry and scientific exploration.
