STS104-719-4 Botswana: Makgadikgadi Salt Pans, Kalahari Desert.

STS104-711-27 Botswana: Western half of Makgadikgadi Salt Pans.

STS104-711-28 Botswana: Eastern half of Makgadikgadi Salt Pans, with salt ponds.

STS104-723-55 South Africa: Kaap Plateau with caliche mines and small lakes resulting from very long rains in early 2000.

STS104-310-7 Azerbaijan: Apsheron Peninsula, city of Baku. Oil production platforms and pipelines are visible south of Baku. We have noted variations in lake color over time - the reddish one north of Baku was pale green in photos from STS101. Eleven papers in our recently published volume Dynamic Earth Environments treat various aspects of the most recent episode of Caspian Sea-level rise.
