Caption

Shell rings are indicated by white dots. Panel A shows what shell rings look like from a normal satellite image. Panel B shows what shell rings look like in radar (SAR) data. They show up very distinct from the surrounding area, in part due to their composition and the nature of the soils on and around these features.
