Why does #altimetry matter? 🌊🛰️
This animation shows significant wave height observations from Sentinel-3A, Sentinel-3B, and Sentinel-6 during Storm Ciarán. Satellite ground tracks cross the northeast Atlantic as large waves develop and propagate towards Europe during the storm. [1/3]

This image shows a 'diatom bloom' off the California coast, captured by Sentinel-3 on April 6.
A toxin producing species (Pseudo-nitzschia) makes this a harmful algal bloom, impacting marine life along the coast. Our partners at NOAA have been monitoring the event, read more here: bit.ly/3GWOaom

In addition to the immediate societal impacts, flood events can have long term impacts on water quality & marine ecosystems. This case follows the impacts that floods after Storm Daniel had on the Thessaly & Volos regions of Greece between 2023 & 2024 bit.ly/4jo3zwr #remotesensing #earthobservation
