STS100-707-80 Canada: The easternmost capes of Newfoundland snag the few remaining patches of last winter's ice pack as the Labrador Current sweeps them southeastward into the open Atlantic.

STS100-706-70 Canada: remnant of last winter's ice pack clings as only a tendril in the Labrador Current off Cape St Francis on the Avalon Peninsula near St John's, Newfoundland.

STS100-707-56 Canada: Pack ice flows along the east coast of Newfoundland.

STS100-712-175 East Pacific: Large internal waves are revealed by sunglint, eastern tropical Pacific (~8.4N ~89.6W). The cloud pattern also suggests a distinct sea-surface temperature difference on either side of a discontinuity.

STS100-712-174 East Pacific: Large internal waves are revealed by sunglint on the eastern tropical Pacific (~8.4N ~89.6W).

STS100-720-5 Greece: The end of the Odyssey, the island of Ithaca, lies just northeast of the larger island of Cephalonia off the west coast of Greece in the Adriatic Sea. Water color on the coast of the Levkas Peninsula suggests pollution from sewage.

STS100-711-31 Cuba: A long wake cloud forms in the southeasterly wind field as it flows over Cabo San Antonio on the western tip of Cuba into the Yucatan Channel.

STS100-704-61 West Pacific: Wake cloud patterns, both linear and non-linear appear near the bottom of this frame--Western Pacific north of New Zealand (30S 178E).

STS100-711-43 United States: Looking northeast across the Chihuahuan Desert of northern Mexico towards Texas, thunderstorms are building in the moist return flow off the Gulf.

STS100-710-182 Japan: Distinct von Karmen vortices are forming in the stratocumulus field downwind from the volcanic island of Rishiri-to in the northern Sea of Japan of the northwest coast of Hokkaido, Japan.
