Summary edit

DescriptionAltiplano from Terra Satellite.jpg	English: The Altiplano between the Lake Titicaca and the Salar de Uyuni. Picture taken by Terra-Satellite with Modis-Sensor. Original Text from http://visibleearth.nasa.gov: High in the Andes Mountains of South America, Lake Titicaca straddles Peru (upper left) and Bolivia. This MODIS true-color image from November 4, 2001, highlights the diverse landforms of the region. In the La Paz region of Bolivia, the Andes are still snow-covered ; some of the peaks hold snow year round. Chile (at left along the coast of the Pacific Ocean) presents a barren-looking landscape, but some green is evident in the high-resolution image, especially around rivers. The large white areas are large salt flats and seasonal salt lakes. Deutsch: Das Altiplano zwischendem Titicacasee und dem Salar de Uyuni, aufgenommen mit dem "Modis"-Sensor des "Terra"-Satelliten.
