Image Caption: Sunglint as a Tool for Oceanographic and Meteorological
features. Around the island of Barung, off of southeast Java,
Indonesia. In frame 85, the sunglint allows us to obtain the wind
direction by the island wake and also see the sea swell and oils
floating on the surface. Without the sunglint we see the color of the
water more vividly and can track sediment distributions such as that
from the Bedading River.
