SeaWiFS: Brown Haze Southeast of Sydney

This SeaWiFS image from May 17, 2001 shows an area covered by a brownish haze to the southeast of Sydney, Australia. There is a white cloud that looks like a smoke plume that originates about 300 kilometers south of Sydney, which may or may not be related to the haze.
