East Korean Bay
Japan Sea

Comment
The image consists of two frames. In the dark areas, the concentration of surfactants (plankton concentration) is high enough to damp the small-scale sea surface roughness. The pattern of filamentary slicks suggests the presence of anticyclonic circulation in the western part of the East Korean Bay.
