Saharan dust feeds Atlantic Ocean plankton
A storm in Africa’s Sahara Desert brought a sandy fertilizer to the Atlantic Ocean on April 8, triggering plankton blooms that show up as blue-green swirls in this photo from the European Space Agency’s Envisat satellite. The storm’s plume covered parts of Ireland [top left], England [top right], France [below England] and the Iberian Peninsula [bottom right].
Saharan sand carries nitrogen, phosphorus and iron—delicious and essential treats for phytoplankton, which are microscopic ocean plants. The sand frequently hitches a ride on atmospheric convection currents and travels as far south as the tropical Atlantic and west to the Caribbean Sea.
