Summary
DescriptionBenelux satellite image.PNG |
English: “The Low Countries” refers to a region of Europe on the coast of the North Sea that is made from parts of modern-day northwestern France, Luxembourg, Belgium, and the Netherlands.
A number of cities are visible as spidery brownish-gray spots on the landscape, including the Netherlands´ Amsterdam (top center, on the southwestern point of the IJsselmeer Bay) and The Hague (middle left, north of the delta on the North Sea), as well as Belgium´s Brussels (about 150 km south of The Hague) and Charleroi (about 45 km south of Brussels). MODIS also detected a handful of fires in the image (marked in red), including one in Charleroi, one in France east of Reims, and two in Germany northwest of Dusseldorf. Also visible are a number of airplane contrails (streaky icy clouds) over the North Sea. This true-color Terra MODIS image was acquired on April 15, 2003.
Nederlands: "De Lage Landen" verwijst naar een regio van Europa aan de kust van de Noordzee die bestaat uit delen van het hedendaagse noordwesten van Frankrijk, Luxemburg, België en Nederland.
Een aantal steden zijn zichtbaar als spinachtige bruingrijze vlekken in het landschap, waaronder in Nederland; Amsterdam (middenboven, op de zuidwestelijke punt van de IJsselmeerbaai) en Den Haag (midden links, ten noorden van de delta aan de Noordzee), evenals het Belgische Brussel (ongeveer 150 km ten zuiden van Den Haag) en Charleroi (ongeveer 45 km ten zuiden van Brussel). MODIS ontdekte ook een handvol branden in het beeld (rood gemarkeerd), waaronder één in Charleroi, één in Frankrijk ten oosten van Reims en twee in Duitsland ten noordwesten van Düsseldorf. Ook zichtbaar zijn een aantal vliegtuigcontrails (gestreepte ijswolken) boven de Noordzee. Deze Terra MODIS-afbeelding in ware kleuren werd verkregen op 15 april 2003. |
