Summary
editDescriptionNew heatwave in Patagonia in December 2021 (Copernicus).jpg |
English: This image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 6 December 2021, shows El Bolsón in the province of Río Negro in Argentina. El Bolsón, on the day this image was acquired, recorded a record-breaking temperature of 37.3°C for the month of December. In fact, Patagonia, the region in which the province of Río Negro is located, has recently been affected by an intense heat wave, an unusual occurrence for this time of year. According to the Argentinean Meteorological Service, this latest episode follows a series of exceptional climate phenomena that have affected the region in 2021. Copernicus satellites and services provide open data that allow us to study the consequences of climate change around the world and to develop mitigation and adaptation measures. |
