Space for Earth

Our #EODataViz 🛰️ series has come to an end, but you can still watch the recordings to learn more about visualising #Copernicus and EUMETSAT #OpenData, on topics such as: 🔥 Wildfires 🌦️ Weather 🌀 Climate extremes 🌊 Oceans & sea ice And much more! 🔗 bit.ly/EO_Dataviz_Rec…

Weather forecasts help farmers better plan their day-to-day work 🚜 But what if they could have predictions in the long term? @CopernicusECMWF developed a prototype service with predictions of drought conditions for wheat crops up until 2025 Have a look: climate.copernicus.eu/decadal-predic…

We can only act on what we know. #EO has been helping the global community track the changes impacting the planet's climate for decades, transforming space data into #ClimateActionNow 🌍 Here are some examples of what satellites have seen from space: climate.esa.int/media/document…

#DYK that the #GulfStream is a powerful current〰️ that transports warm water from the Gulf of Mexico to the Atlantic #Ocean❓ The #CopernicusMarine Service monitors it, as it is vital for understanding the Earth's heat balance 🌡️ ⬇️Gulf Stream visualised on #MyOceanViewer

DYK that EU bases the planning of offshore wind farm installations on the use of satellite data provided by Heritage Missions? A long-term study of #Envisat data focused on wind currents, allows the efficiency of the installations to increase Read📰earth.esa.int/eogateway/news… 📷@ESA

📷🇳🇿This high-resolution interactive image of Cook Strait, #NewZealand, was captured by @CopernicusEU #Sentinel2. Follow the link to explore this image at its full 10 m resolution and learn more about the region. What can you spot? 🛫⛴️🏙️ 👉  esa.int/ESA_Multimedia…

In a study led by US scientists, @esa #EO missions #CryoSat & #Envisat helpded to reveal worldwide lake water loss trend. Both optical and altimetry data was used for the study, published in Science journal. Read📰earth.esa.int/eogateway/news… More on data: earth.esa.int/eogateway/sear…

🔜 Join our webinar to introduce: ‘Future of Work for Sustainable Growth’, a new call for proposals that use space assets to support workplace #digitalisation. 🎙 With guests from @PlugandPlayTC Europe & @ambr_tech. Tuesday 4 July, 10:00 BST/11:00 CEST ➡ business.esa.int/funding/intend…

The clouds left the perfect gap to be able to see this bright phytoplankton bloom in the North Sea yesterday morning 🌊🦠 Captured by the #Copernicus #Sentinel3 satellite 🛰️

As reported by @CA_DWR, Lake Oroville in California has reached full capacity, thanks to winter storms and snowmelt. This animation was made with @CopernicusEU #Sentinel2 images and compares the lake's water levels in September 2021 vs June 2023. 📸 esa.int/ESA_Multimedia…

Klaus Scipal, Mission Manager of @ESA's #SMOS & #Biomass #EarthExplorers 🛰️talks about the upcoming Biomass mission, describing: • the objectives • how it will fill gaps in knowledge of forest ecosystems • which users will use its data📡 📽️2️⃣: earth.esa.int/eogateway/news…

🛰️🌊 Satellite measurements have shown that the temperature of the surface waters of our oceans recently hit an all-time high. Learn what this means in terms of #ElNino and #ClimateChange.👉  esa.int/ESA_Multimedia…

#ICYMI @CopernicusEMS has recently launched a new web portal for its #drought observatories - #EDO and #GDO❗️ A new interface has been developed to make access to maps and data as easy and seamless as possible Check the new portal at👇 edo.jrc.ec.europa.eu/tumbo

#IRIS2, Europe's new Infrastructure for Resilience, Interconnectivity & Security by Satellites will foster: 🎯Competitiveness 📈Societal progress For a digital, resilient, and safer Europe🇪🇺 More at👇 defence-industry-space.ec.europa.eu/eu-space-polic…

By 2030 digital technologies including 5G, IoT & AI will be at the core of new business models. Join us on 4 July as we introduce: ‘Future of Work for Sustainable Growth’, a new call for proposals that use space assets to support workplace #digitalisation. business.esa.int/funding/intend…

🌳Mark #WorldRainforestDay by watching an edition of the Earth from Space programme where the @CopernicusEU #Sentinel2 mission takes us over part of the Amazon rainforest - the world's largest tropical rainforest. Follow the link to watch the video. 👉  esa.int/ESA_Multimedia…

🟢#WorldRainforestDay🟢 #Rainforests play a major role in carbon sequestration & climate change mitigation They also contribute to cloud formation, precipitation, and hydrological cycles while preventing erosion ⬇️Amazon Rainforest fragment seen by #Copernicus #Sentinel2🇪🇺🛰️

🌞😎 Today marks the Northern Hemisphere #SummerSolstice! Celebrate the Sun by learning about this high resolution mosaic image, taken on 7 March by @ESASolarOrbiter. Can you spot Earth, included for scale? 👉 esa.int/ESA_Multimedia… #TheSunUpClose ☀️ #WeAreAllSolarOrbiters

Scientists used observations from TPM PROBA-1’s CHRIS🔭to classify the leaf🌿angle & maturity of crops. CHRIS provides data on leaf area index (LAI) & chlorophyll, relevant for monitoring stress in forests and mapping agriculture use. Learn more earth.esa.int/eogateway/miss… 📷ESA
