A thermal image of coastline shows plant evaporative stress in varying shades of red and green. Waterways in black snake through the mangrove forest, becoming narrower toward the top of the image. Land that touches or is near a waterway tends to have low evaporative stress and shows up as bright green, whereas areas farther inland indicate high evaporative stress and appear red.
