Movie ID Title
Animation depicting nearly a decades worth of SeaWiFS ocean chlorophyll concentration and land Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) data. 3599 Phytoplankton Blooms through the Eyes of SeaWiFS Data
This animation shows a 32-day moving average of SST data around the world and around Australia.  This data continuously loops from July 4, 2002 to October 23, 2006. 3510 MODIS Sea Surface Temperature from 2002 to 2006 around Australia
Animation depicting nearly a decades worth of SeaWiFS ocean chlorophyll concentration and land Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) data. This animation begins by slowly spinning the earth around until settling over Australia. 3494 SeaWiFS Biosphere Data over Australia
Animation depicting nearly a decades worth of SeaWiFS ocean chlorophyll concentration and land Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) data. This animation begins by slowly spinning the earth around until settling over the North Pacific. 3471 SeaWiFS Biosphere Data over the North Pacific (Slow Version)
Animation depicting nearly a decades worth of SeaWiFS ocean chlorophyll concentration and land Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) data. This animation begins by slowly spinning the earth around until settling over the North Atlantic. 3468 SeaWiFS Biosphere Data over the North Atlantic (Slow Version)
This animation show the MEI in red and then the Ocean Net Primary Production (NPP) levels in green. 3459 SeaWiFS Biosphere Data over the North Atlantic
Print resolution picture of SeaWiFS global biosphere over the North Pacific. 3454 SeaWiFS Biosphere Data over the North Pacific
Print resolution picture of SeaWiFS global biosphere over the Northern Atlantic. 3450 SeaWiFS Biosphere Data over the North Atlantic
This animation shows a 32-day moving average of SST data spanning July 4, 2002 to October 23, 2006.  The animation starts over Europe, pans across the Atlantic, and settles in over the Gulf Stream. 3389 MODIS Sea Surface Temperature Highlighting the Gulf Stream (2002 to 2006)
This animation shows a 32-day moving average of SST data over the Pacific spanning July 4, 2002 to October 23, 2006. 3388 MODIS Sea Surface Temperature from 2002 to 2006
This animation shows a 32-day moving average of global SeaWiFS data spanning from August 29, 1997 to October 23, 2006. 3387 SeaWiFS Biosphere from 1997 to 2006
Carbon is all around us.  This unique atom is the basic building block of life, and its compounds form solids, liquids, or gases. Carbon helps form the bodies of living organisms; it dissolves in the ocean; mixes in the atmosphere; and can be stored in the crust of the planet. A carbon atom could spend millions of years moving through this complex cycle. The ocean plays the most critical role in regulating Earth's carbon balance, and understanding how the carbon cycle is changing is key to understanding Earth's changing climate. <p><p><p>For complete transcript, click <a href= 10498 Keeping Up With Carbon
One tiny marine plant makes life on Earth possible: phytoplankton.  These microscopic photosynthetic drifters form the basis of the marine food web, they regulate carbon in the atmosphere, and are responsible for half of the photosynthesis that takes place on this planet.  Earth's climate is changing at an unprecedented rate, and as our home planet warms, so does the ocean.  Warming waters have big consequences for phytoplankton and for the planet.  <p><p><p><p>For complete transcript, click <a href= 10497 The Ocean's Green Machines
This conceptual animation illustrates some of the ecological pathways between species within the marine ecosystem. Single-celled microscopic plants called phytoplankton float in the upper ocean. These photosynthetic plants form the foundation of the marine food web, and nearly all life in the ocean depend upon them for survival, including microscopic zooplankton and whales.  10495 Marine Food Web
