Terra卫星发布中国北方暴雪遥感影像

A big snow storm in Eastern China, as viewed by the Terra satellite.

The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Terra satellite captured this true-color image on January 4, 2010. Snow cover circles Bo Hai and extends to the north and west of that water body. Snow also covers Beijing, Tianjin, and a constellation of smaller settlements. The large cities leave big gray splotches on the blanket of snow, and the smaller cities make small gray dots. Snow caps the mountains north and west of Beijing, but the snow cover gradually fades southwest of Beijing and Tianjin.

Cloud streets—clouds arranged in neat rows—similar to those that have appeared over Hudson Bay and the Great Lakes float over Bo Hai.
