Title : Dust Cloud over Sea of Japan
Caption :
The East Asian dust storm appears to have diminished somewhat on March 20, 2002, as compared to previous days. However, it appears there may be a new batch of dust rising toward the lefthand side of this image. This scene spans from eastern Asia across Japan and out over the western North Pacific, where the dust was partly entrained by a low-pressure system (note the characteristic spiral cloud pattern).True-color image.
