Sunglint refers to the bright reflection of sunlight off the surface of water, particularly in oceans, seas, or large lakes. This phenomenon occurs when sunlight shines directly onto the water's surface at a favorable angle, creating a mirror-like effect that can illuminate the water and produce distinct patterns or glistening areas. Sunglint is often noticeable in satellite imagery and can be used to study various oceanic features, including surface currents, water turbidity, and the presence of pollutants.
