Transport of smoke to the Atlantic Ocean, June, 19, 1985 (locations mapped in Figure 8.9). (A) This oblique photograph of Angola in the dry season looks west toward the Atlantic Ocean and shows individual fires in the savannas (NASA photograph STS51G-46-39). Smoke plumes indicate wind movement to the west (bottom to top). (B) This is one of the best photographs illustrating the transport of smoke and pollutants from urban South Africa into the tropical South Atlantic (NASA photograph STS51G-46-77). Individual plumes give the sense of airflow towards the Atlantic Ocean.
