Water vapour maps of Antarctica, 2004
Water vapour maps of Antarctica. Satellite images of the increase in water vapour over Antarctica from 13 August to 14 October 2004 (the austral spring). The sequence starts at upper left, and runs from right-to-left and top-to-bottom, ending at lower right. The relative amount of water vapour varies from low (green) through yellow to high (red). This increase in water vapour accompanies the formation of the ozone hole. The data was obtained by the Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) instrument on NASAs AURA satellite

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases water vapor maps of Antarctica captured in 2004. The satellite images depict the remarkable increase in water vapor over the region during the austral spring, spanning from 13 August to 14 October. The sequence commences at the upper left corner and proceeds from right-to-left and top-to-bottom until reaching the lower right corner. The varying shades on the map represent different levels of relative water vapor content, ranging from low (green) to high (red). This surge in water vapor coincides with the formation of the ozone hole, highlighting its correlation with atmospheric changes. The data used for this visualization was collected by NASA's AURA satellite through its Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) instrument. By capturing these intricate details, scientists gain valuable insights into climatological patterns and Earth's ever-evolving atmosphere. This image serves as a testament to our growing understanding of climate change and its impact on our planet. It underscores how advancements in earth science and observation have allowed us to study phenomena like ozone depletion, greenhouse gases, and seasonal variations more comprehensively. Science Photo Library presents this thought-provoking montage that encapsulates both scientific significance and aesthetic appeal. It stands as a reminder of humanity's ongoing efforts to comprehend Earth's complex systems while emphasizing their importance for future generations' well-being.
