Coast of Africa Satellite Image

The image is of the coast of Africa where warm summer tempteratures heat up the water. It is the birthplace of huricanes which end up hitting North America. The image also shows how the jetstreams play a major role in the climate of the continents as the center area of Africa, along where the jetstream is has a lusher flora and fauna as compared to the northen part of Africa where it is drier and harsher.
