Summary
editDescriptionThe Strait of Gibraltar (Copernicus).jpg |
English: This image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 15 February 2022, shows the Strait of Gibraltar, which separates Spain from Morocco.
Due to this area’s strategic importance for seabirds, which fly over it every year in their migration from the Mediterranean to the Atlantic, Gibraltar currently has two sites within the Natura 2000 network, covering a total area of 5687 ha, which have both been classified as Special Protection Areas and Special areas of Conservation. The Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) products services help monitoring the environmental conditions influencing bird migration, and more specifically help predict how they will be influenced in the long run by climate change. |
