Satellite Images - from the University of
Rhode Island Graduate School of Oceanography. The images available clearly
show the Gulf Stream as it heads up the Eastern North American coast line
and then out into the Atlantic Ocean. What is impressive about this site is
the fact that they have taken the trouble to put together a classroom lesson
plan to help interpret the images - what the different colours mean and how
to tell which areas represent sea surface temperature and which represent
cloud cover. An excellent resource. (3/12/98)
