- Leyend: This satellite image illustrates the temperature variation in the Northern Channel Islands. Temperature ranges are represented as follows: blue = 44-52º F, green-yellow = 56-64º F, and orange-red = 65-72º F. The California current brings cold water down from the Gulf of Alaska, which influences the northwestern islands: San Miguel, Santa Rosa, and part of Santa Cruz. Warm currents affect Santa Barbara Island (not pictured), Anacapa and the eastern side of Santa Cruz.

Attribution information, such as the author's name, e-mail, website, or signature, that was once visible in the image itself has been moved into the image metadata and/or image description page. This makes the image easier to reuse and more language-neutral, and makes the text easier to process and search for. Commons discourages placing visible author information in images.
