After Europe’s recent heatwave, here’s something refreshingly different. 🧊 This #Sentinel2 image shows the ice-covered Kane Basin and Peabody Bay, where cracks, trapped icebergs and remarkable circular ice formations create stunning Arctic patterns. Visit our #BCEarthGallery post: 👉 bit.ly/3RF30Wx

A spectacular Sentinel-3 image captures a sediment plume stretching over 1,200 km across the North Sea-from the Thames Estuary to near Gothenburg. Rivers, tides and currents create an impressive natural pattern… or maybe a little dragon. 🐉🌊 Visit our new #BCEarthGallery article: 👉 bit.ly/3TYtaEd

In our next webinar on 22 July, Emilio Chuvieco will present the aims and key results of ESA's Climate Change Initiative Fire project, which produces burned area datasets at up to 250 m resolution, providing one of the most detailed and consistent long-term records of fire activity: t1p.de/xuyrj

🌊🛰️ Spring transformed the Mid-Atlantic Bight into shades of green, turquoise and milky blue. Sentinel-2 captured a large phytoplankton bloom shaped by upwelling, warming waters and nutrient-rich river inflow. Read the story in our new #BCEarthGallery blog: 👉 bit.ly/4fppHqG #OceanColour

Long June days and unusually high temperatures fueled this year’s algal bloom in the Baltic Sea. 🌊 Sentinel-3 captured the bloom across the central Baltic, while a Sentinel-2 image revealed stunning details between Gotland and Saaremaa. Check out our new #BCEarthGallery article! 👉 bit.ly/4fjxaHE

Multiple von Kármán vortex streets emerge downstream of the Kuril Islands as cold air flows through the island chain. Satellite imagery beautifully reveals the hidden dynamics of atmospheric flow. Explore the full story on our #BCEarthGallery blog! 👉 bit.ly/4apHkno #EarthObservation #Meteorology

A natural neural network? Not quite. 🌍 This striking pattern in southern #Namibia is the result of rare rainfall, shallow depressions, and vegetation growing alongside channels that retain moisture in the Kalahari sands. Read more in our #BCEarthGallery: 👉 bit.ly/4w6L71t #RemoteSensing #Copernicus

The wind blowing across Bornholm generated atmospheric gravity waves, whilst eddies formed in the boundary layer above the sea. Together, they created a fascinating checkerboard-like pattern, clearly visible from space. Visit our new #BCEarthGallery blog: 🛰️ 👉 bit.ly/4e9hV3F #BalticSea #Sentinel2B

An almost perfectly semicircular wave formed in Colombia’s Golfo de Morrosquillo. Under sunglint conditions, a wave with a radius of 5.3 km became visible – and its centre points directly towards a mooring buoy and a 215-metre-long ship.

The Sunset Mountains in Arizona 🇺🇸 reveal more than geology. Millions of years of erosion shaped these colourful plateaus, while from space their outlines resemble mythical creatures. One even looks like a winged horse.🛰️ #Sentinel2 Find out more in our new #BCEarthGallery blog post: 👉 bit.ly/4fgfqNZ

Kashagan in the northern Caspian Sea is one of the world’s largest recent oil discoveries. #Sentinel2 imagery reveals artificial islands, ship traffic, and submerged pipeline structures beneath the shallow water surface. #EO #SatelliteImagery Visit our new #BCEarthGallery blog post: 👉 bit.ly/4fIBy3z

#Sentinel2 captures remarkable tidal patterns in Roebuck Bay, Western Australia. The bay’s huge tidal range creates extensive mudflats and fascinating eddy structures near shallow sandbanks. Read more in our new #BCEarthGallery blog post: 👉 bit.ly/3Rjs0SA #RemoteSensing #Copernicus #Oceanography

These aren’t craters. Satellite images reveal large ring-shaped structures in Antarctica’s meltwater basins, some of which persist for decades. Find out more about this rare and yet little-documented phenomenon in our new #BCEarthGallery: 👉 bit.ly/4tbpz1B #Sentinel2 #RemoteSensing #Cryosphere

Flood, drought, refill: the Menindee Lakes in Australia are constantly changing. New Sentinel-2 data reveals how fast water, colour and vegetation patterns shift in this highly dynamic lake system. Visit our new #BCEarthGallery blog post: 👉 bit.ly/4vUNRzI #EarthObservation #Sentinel2 #Hydrology

Lake Magadi (Kenya) shines deep red – and it’s completely natural. Extreme salinity fuels algae & archaea producing protective pigments. Captured by #Sentinel2. A striking example of life in extreme environments. Read more in our #BCEarthGallery: 👉 bit.ly/4c8WeQo #EarthObservation #RemoteSensing

Bright orange coastlines in Indonesia? This Sentinel-2 image reveals a large nickel deposit — a key resource for steel and EV batteries. Barges offshore are waiting to transport the ore. Check out our new #BCEarthGallery blog post: 👉 bit.ly/4c881wT #Sentinel2 #EarthObservation #EnergyTransition

Some Antarctic “ice” formations seem surprisingly well-organized. Recent Sentinel-2 scenes show structures that appear, assemble… and disappear again. Not something you see every day – a new species? Visit our #BCEarthGallery for further insight: 👉 bit.ly/47BW9C1 #SatelliteImagery #Antarctica

A flower-shaped reef in the Kerguelen Islands? NIR satellite imagery reveals a striking underwater structure hosting a ~2 km² kelp forest — and signs of regional decline. Check out our new #BCEarthGallery article: 👉 bit.ly/4sHjeM8 #EarthObservation #RemoteSensing #Kelp #Ocean
