This cloud pattern over the Atlantic Ocean was captured by Meteosat on 3 September 2014, at 1130 UTC. The clouds are known as "dendritic clouds" and are shallow cumulus clouds that form over warm tropical water. Although they look quite unusual the patterns are relatively common, but were difficult to identify and study before the satellite era.

Coral reefs are formed from calcium carbonate secreted by tiny animals called polyps. These colonies of polyps and the reefs they create are among Earth's most diverse ecosystems, providing shelter for a wide variety of fish, mollusks, sponges, and other sea creatures. They are important for tourism and the fishing industry. Corals are highly sensitive to both warming ocean temperatures and ocean acidification brought about by increased atmospheric carbon dioxide. NCAR scientists are studying the effects of warming and acidification on reefs and the marine populations they support.
