Data Source | GEOS-5 / GMAO / NASA CO2 display from https://earth.nullschool.net/#current/chem/surface/level/overlay=co2sc/orthographic=-230.54,-18.46,3000/loc=129.435,-21.034 Google Maps CO display from https://earth.nullschool.net/#current/chem/surface/level/overlay=cosc/orthographic=-236.32,-19.84,3000/loc=129.435,-21.034 SO2 display from https://earth.nullschool.net/#current/chem/surface/level/overlay=so2smass/orthographic=-236.32,-19.84,3000/loc=129.435,-21.034 Is it smelting, cement production or some natural phenomenon - there's nothing apparent on the satellite image from Google:

Seriously incredible views of the weather around the world that i found on you tube. The hurricanes look so fascinating from above. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8q7_qX1FsiNUa9bDc1jFqw

Was browsing through the modis (terra) near real-time subsets when I spotted something a little out of place on the thumbnail images between Australia and Antarctica. I then had to have a gander at at a larger pic to see what it was, then look at the aqua version, taken a little later to see if it was still there. I thought the contrast between the clear skies and the ring of cloud surrounding it was quite spectacular! A quick check for other satellite imagery on the BOM site, gave a IR image of the same area, showing the same circle, though not as clearly defined. And the explanation for it was a simple high pressure system! I realise it's not anywhere near as spectacular as some other shots (especially some of the storm chase pics!) but I find it impressive that a simple high pressure system can produce something that looks so impressive and slightly ominous too, like something punched a huge hole through the clouds!

All clear for new NASA Satellite monitoring the climate - looks like some amazing datasets will arrive back from this piece of equipment. NPP will record sea and land surface temperatures, track atmospheric ozone and dust levels, measure changes in vegetation productivity and monitor sea ice, land ice and glaciers around the world.

I did think twice about posting this story, so as I have, will you all please not worry about this landing in your garden or loft? http://www.space.com/12999-dead-nasa-satellite-falling-earth-sept-23.html
