Aura Science : Data and Images : 2008

	NO2 in the Troposphere View collection of movies created from Aura's OMI instrument of NO2 in the troposphere.
	California fires as seen from MODIS and OMI Smoke from the recent outbreak of fires in Southern California can clearly be seen via NASA satellites.
	Aleutians Eruption OMI captured the SO2 cloud in 2 consecutive orbits of the eruption in the Aleutians.
	Air Quality during the Olympics Restrictions were put on traffic and power plants to improve air quality in Beijing during the Olympics. OMI makes daily measurements of the total column of SO₂ and NO₂.
	Okmok eruption Sulfur dioxide measurements from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) on Aura permitted tracking of the eruption cloud in near real-time.
	Springtime OMI Measurements of BrO Despite its low atmospheric abundance, bromine monoxide (BrO) plays an important role in the chemistry of the atmosphere because it is a catalyst of the ozone destruction.
	Chaiten volcano Eruption The Chaiten volcano eruption in southern Chile caught local authorities by surprise as experts say it has been dormant for at least 450 years.
	Sulfur Dioxide and Vog from Kilauea In late April 2008, Kilauea Volcano Volcano on Hawaii's big island continued its pattern of increased activity, including elevated seismic tremors and emissions.
	Sulfur Dioxide over Hawaii Aura's OMI instrument provided the imagery used in the animation of the Sulfur dioxide (SO₂) emissions over Hawaii.
	Llaima Volcano Eruption The Llaima Volcano is one of Chile's most active volcanoes and has frequent but moderate eruptions. An eruption on January 1, 2008 forced the evacuation of hundreds of people from nearby villages.
