STS102-707-80 Russia: Kamchatka.

STS102-707-75 Russia: Scene features cold air advection (cloud streets) over Sea of Okhotsk, wind driven ice floes and snow-covered volcanos in Southern Kamchatka.

STS102-703-39 Russia: Kara Bogaz Gol Bay, sand spits separating the bay from the Caspian. During the previous Caspian recession, the natural pass was dammed (1980) to restrict water to the deeper Caspian basin. Brine and salt works began in the bay and a controllable inlet was built in 1984 to feed brine evaporation operations. During the present sea-level rise, the channel was restored through the spit in 1993 to relieve flooding pressure on the Caspian shores.

STS102-701-95 Russia: Volga River delta, glint detail.

STS102-702-31 Russia: Southern Russian city of Rostov-on-Don, with landuse patterns.

STS102-703-30 Russia: Katabatic (gravity) winds pour from Caucasus Mountains valleys into stratus/fog bank.

STS102-713-6 Russia: Orsk, Siberia, under snow.

STS102-338-15 Russia: Russian city with soot.

STS102-357-19 Russia: ISS over Aral Sea.
