The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (_MODIS_ 
(http://modis.gsfc.nasa.gov/) ) on NASA’s _Aqua_ (http://aqua.nasa.gov/)  satellite detected 
signs of flooding in  Albania on December 4, 2005, top image. Muddy water, 
clouded with sediment from  storm run-off, colors the coastal waters of the 
Adriatic Sea a brilliant blue.  On land, swollen rivers form a faint web of 
pale blue where only green  vegetation existed on November 13, 2005, lower 
image. According to news reports,  the floods were caused by heavy rains on 
December 2. Clouds, blue and white in  these false-color images, still 
covered much of the country on December 4. 
The large images provided above have a resolution of 250 meters per pixel,  
MODIS maximum resolution. The MODIS Rapid Response Team provides _daily  
images_ (http://rapidfire.sci.gsfc.nasa.gov/fas/?Europe_3_03/2005338)  of the 
region in a variety of resolutions.
