DescriptionCloud-free Europe from Sentinel-3 ESA17518615.jpeg |
English: This mosaic of cloud-free images from the Copernicus Sentinel-3A satellite spans the entire continent of Europe and more. The view stretches from Iceland in the northwest across to Scandinavia and Russia in the northeast, and from the northern tips of Norway and Finland to as far south as Algeria, Libya and Egypt. The Sentinel-3 mission observes our home planet to understand large-scale environmental dynamics. Based on a constellation of two identical satellites, the Sentinel-3 mission carries a suite of instruments to measure our oceans, land and ice. While the satellite’s ocean and land colour instrument depicts the green of summer in many parts of Europe, the dryness that summer brings, particularly to the south, can also be seen in parts of Spain, Italy and Turkey, for example. This image is made up of scenes captured by Sentinel-3A between 1 March 2017 and 30 July 2017. |
