Indian Ocean,chlorophyll concentration. Computer graphic of the Indian Ocean on an Earth globe,generated using satellite and mapping data. Cloud-free satellite images show the natural land colours. Satellite-measured ocean chlorophyll concentrations are colour-coded: high values in red,yellow and green,low values in blue and purple. Chlorophyll is present in photosynthesising plankton blooming where nutrients are concentrated where currents meet,deep water upwells,or nutrients run off from the land. Data obtained by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA's Aqua satellite | |
