Photographic Print : Average plant growth of the Earth
Photo Prints from Stocktrek
Average plant growth of the Earth
This pair of images contrasts average plant growth in 2002 to growth in 2008, revealing small interannual changes. The images are part of our series World of Change: Global Biosphere. On land, the highest concentration of plant growth (dark green) tends to be concentrated in tropical regions around the equator, where rainfall and sunlight are abundant. In the ocean, the highest chlorophyll concentrations (yellow) are in cold polar waters or in places where ocean currents bring cold water to the surface, such as around the equator and along the shores of continents. In these regions, tiny plant-like organisms called phytoplankton flourish because the cold water tends to bring nutrients to the surface. The images are an annual average, so seasonal changes are erased. Instead, the contrast between 2002 and 2008 reveals small differences in weather patterns between the two years

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the average plant growth of the Earth, providing a striking contrast between 2002 and 2008. The images, part of the World of Change: Global Biosphere series, unveil subtle interannual changes in plant growth patterns. On land, we observe that lush green areas are concentrated around tropical regions near the equator where rainfall and sunlight abound. In the ocean, vibrant yellow hues indicate high chlorophyll concentrations found in cold polar waters or areas influenced by upwelling currents such as those along the equator and continental shores. These regions serve as thriving grounds for phytoplankton - microscopic plant-like organisms - due to nutrient-rich cold water brought to the surface. It is important to note that these images represent annual averages, erasing any seasonal fluctuations but revealing slight disparities in weather patterns between 2002 and 2008. The photograph encompasses various continents including Antarctica, Australia, Asia, Russia, Middle East, Europe, Canada, Africa, South America and North America. Its digital composite composition allows us to appreciate both landmasses and bodies of water on our planet's surface. As we contemplate this image print from Stocktrek Images' collection without any human presence depicted within it; we are reminded of Earth's delicate balance and how climate change may impact our global biosphere. This thought-provoking visual representation serves as a reminder of our responsibility towards preserving our environment for future generations.
