Flooding was visible on June 21 (right) when the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Aqua satellite passed over the region. The same area is shown on June 9 (left), before Biparjoy moved ashore. In these false-color images, which use MODIS bands 7-2-1, areas flooded with sediment-laden water appear greenish blue. Water with less suspended sediment appears dark blue. The large light blue areas in the June 9 image are dry natural salt pans. The rectangular features on the left side of the images are evaporation ponds used to produce salt.
