Summary[edit]

Description
English: The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Terra satellite captured this image of part of Sofala Province, around the city of Beira. The image uses a combination of infrared and visible light to increase the contrast between water and land. Vegetation appears bright green. Clouds appear sky blue. Water appears navy blue. Waters overflowing the banks of the Púnguè River create a big blue splotch northwest of Beira, and swell the river near the coast.
