Photo ID: h4w169Subject: OceansDescription
Depositional Environment; Photogeology; Phytoplankton Blooms; Plumes; Remote Sensing; Satellite Imagery; Sediment Supply; Sediment Transport; Sedimentation; SedimentsA large sediment plume can be seen flowing down the western edge of Lagoa dos Patos and out to sea through the inlet by Rio Grande in southernmost Brazil. Phytoplankton blooms seen offshore my be partly supported by nutrients contained in the turbid runoff. Also visible in this SeaWiFS image are Lagoa Mirim, Lagoa Mangueira, and Laguna Negra (in Uruguay).
