Description
English: Part of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago, Bylot Island is a 11,000-square-kilometer (4,200-square-mile) island within Canada’s Sirmilik National Park. In wintertime, snow and ice blanket the island in white, but in summertime, Bylot’s glaciers contrast with its earth-toned land cover. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Terra satellite observed Bylot Island on March 9, 2012 (top), and July 22, 2012 (bottom)
Date acquired July 22, 2012
