Growth
in
"mega-cities"
is
altering
the
landscape
and
the
atmosphere
in
such
a
way
as
to
curtail

photosynthesis.
By
using
data
from
The
Defense
Meteorological
Satellite
Program's
Operational
Linescan
System,
researchers
have
been
able
to
look
at
urban
sprawl
by
monitoring
the
emission
of
light
from
cities
at
night.
By
overlaying
these
"light

onto

and
