Pre-flood Missouri River
Pre-flood Missouri River (image 1 of 2). Coloured three-dimensional computer image, based on satell- ite data, of the Missouri River, USA. The image was taken on 24 September 1992, before the river flooded in 1993. North is at right. Bare soil, such as in ploughed fields, is red, with vegetat- ion green and water black. The record rainfall of summer 1993 caused the river to burst its banks and flood a large area of land. A flood of this size should occur only once every 100 or more years. The image was produced from data collected by the Thematic Mapper on the US Landsat 5 satell- ite. For the river in flood see image E160/124

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a vibrant and detailed three-dimensional computer image of the pre-flood Missouri River in the United States. Captured on 24 September 1992, this satellite-based depiction portrays the river's natural beauty before it succumbed to a devastating flood in 1993. The image, with its north direction at right, offers a unique perspective of the region's landscape. In this visual representation, bare soil appears as striking red hues while lush vegetation is depicted in vivid green tones. The flowing water is represented by deep black shades. This accurate portrayal was made possible through data collected by the Thematic Mapper on the US Landsat 5 satellite. The photograph serves as a reminder of nature's unpredictable power and resilience. Despite occurring once every century or more, an unprecedented rainfall during summer 1993 caused the Missouri River to overflow its banks and inundate vast stretches of land. As we gaze upon this pre-flood scene, we are transported back to a time when these fields were teeming with crops and thriving agricultural activity. This awe-inspiring image not only highlights our planet's diverse geography but also underscores humanity's intricate relationship with climate and weather patterns. It stands as a testament to both scientific advancements in meteorology and hydrology and our ongoing efforts to understand and adapt to Earth's ever-changing conditions.
