Buzachi and Mangyshlak Peninsulas: NASA photographs (A) May 1985 (STS51B-031-060); (B) May 1996 (NM21-740-076). Between these two southeastward photographs, taken seven years apart, the most striking difference is in Sor Kaydak (SK) and Sor Mertvyy Kultuk (SMK); the salt flats (sor) stretching to the east and southeast of the peninsula were dry in 1985 and inundated in 1996. On Buzachi Peninsula (B) much of the western shore has been flooded.
