NASA - Earth Month 2013

High-resolution global atmospheric modeling at the NASA Center for Climate Simulation, Goddard Space Flight Center, provides a unique tool to study the role of weather in Earth's climate system. This portrait of global aerosols was produced by a Goddard Earth Observing System Model, Version 5 (GEOS-5) simulation at a 10-kilometer resolution. Dust (red) is lifted from the surface, sea salt (blue) swirls inside cyclones, smoke (green) rises from fires, and sulfate particles (white) stream from volcanoes and fossil fuel emissions.
