About The Cover
Satellite ocean color image showing the distribution of phytoplankton pigments around the Galápagos Islands during El Niño. This computer-processed image, color-coded according to concentration range, was produced from data collected on 1 February 1983 using the Coastal Zone Color Scanner aboard NASA's Nimbus-7 satellite. Regions of high concentrations (above 1 milligram per cubic meter) are orange; intermediate levels, yellow and green; lowest levels (less than 0.2 milligram per cubic meter), blue. Major islands are black and clouds white. North is at the top; equator lies horizontally just above the center of the image. See page 1069. [G.
