Dust plumes, Baja California, Mexico
164 x 120 JPEG
In October 2007, strong, dry Santa Ana winds raised a major dust plume and several minor plumes on the Baja California peninsula. The light brown dust spread west to the Pacific Ocean (image top right). Because they are warm, dry, and strong, Santa Ana winds reduce soil moisture and famously promote dust storms such as this.

Ross Sea Ice on the Move
Published December 15, 2007
The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) captured the movement in this pair of photo-like images of sea ice in the Ross Sea, taken on December 12 and December 13, 2007, within the span of nine hours. The ice was shifting, bunching and drifting northward so quickly that even in the short space of time that elapsed between the two images, noticeable differences developed.
