Description
Ireland. SPOT infrared satellite image of Ireland. North is at top. Urban areas, such as the capital of the Republic of Ireland, Dublin (centre right), and the capital of Northern Ireland, Belfast (upper right, on the north-east coast), are grey blue. Ireland is often called the Emerald Isle" because of its lush vegetation (red in infrared images). The island is shaped like a basin, with central lowlands and hilly coastal ranges. It has many lakes (black), including the largest in the United Kingdom, Lough Neagh (upper right). The longest river in Ireland, the Shannon, ends at a long, narrow estuary at lower left."
