remote sensing

[James C. Hendee]

Yes, because we realize the importance of remote sensing, we have included 
daily AVHRR satellite images of the Florida Keys Nationall Marine 
Sanctuary region at our Coral Health and Monitoring Home Page, 
http://coral.aoml.erl.gov.  We still need a little work on the color, but 
that should be corrected soon.
