Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The natural-color image was captured by MODIS on October 22, 2016. The plume from the Al-Mishraq sulfur plant appears white-gray because it is rich with sulfate aerosols and droplets of sulfuric acid, which reflect light. Smoke plumes from the Qayyarah oil field are black because they are rich with black carbon and other aerosols that absorb light.
