Cool site...NOAA photos

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) presents a vast (20,000+ images) photo library.

Go to Image collections to select from 20 different categories, from the National Severe Storms Laboratory (NSSL) album / catalog, to Beginnings and Endings ("sunrises, sunsets, moonbeams and moonshine").

Two informative sites:

• Damage Assessment Restoration Program (DARP)

  brings together restoration scientists and managers and a legal team to ensure that natural resource losses are compensated for and that injured marine resources are restored after oil spills, toxic releases or ship groundings.

• Shoreline Data Explorer

  provides high-resolution digital shoreline from multi-temporal surveys of our nation's coastline.
