Sand at sea, as seen from space

I wrote this recently at work: EUMETSAT – News – Sand at sea, as seen from space

We’ve been providing some images from satellites and working with others to have other weather data and following the German research ship Polarstern as it travels North from the southern oceans.

(the data are all at http://eumetrain.org/eport/polarstern_09.php)

Along side this there has been a weekly online discussion (using Saba Centra – a whiteboard / meeting tool) where we’ve been able to talk about what can be seen from the ship and  space.

Following a real ship  made the experience much more engaging.
