The extreme floods that have been threatening northeastern China and the Russian Far East are slowly moving north along the length of the Amur River. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Aqua satellite acquired the left false-color image of the swollen Amur River on September 8, 2013. The right image, also from Aqua MODIS, shows the river on August 17, 2012, providing a view of normal water levels during the late summer.

The false-color images were made with short-wave and near-infrared light. Water is black; plant-covered land is green; clouds are pale blue and white; and burned land is red. The city of Komsomolsk-on-Amur is pale brown. The winding river channels and sponge-like appearance of the land around the river in the 2012 image indicates the presence of wetlands.
