High-altitude wetlands (HAW) are critical for ensuring water, food, climate and livelihood security.

These ecosystems serve as vital habitats for migratory species and high-altitude biodiversity that rely on these HAW to complete their annual migration cycles.

Wildfires on the eastern Greek island of Chios emitted thick smoke that blew southwestward on 23 Jun, observed by @noaa.gov VIIRS aerosol optical depth (AOD >0.5). Also evident is a small plume from a wildfire near Papadianika in southern Greece. @mparrington.bsky.social @pierremarkuse.bsky.social

🆕 The first stunning images from our groundbreaking #Biomass satellite mission have been released – they mark a major leap forward in our ability to understand how Earth’s forests are changing and exactly how they contribute to the global carbon cycle 🌳🌍

www.esa.int/Applications...
This image features part of Bolivia. This vibrant image was created using the radar instrument’s different polarisation channels, with each colour revealing distinct characteristics of the landscape. For instance, green hues mainly represent rainforest, red hues forested floodplains and wetlands, and blue–purple is indicative of grasslands, while black areas are rivers and lakes. The image spans approximately 90 km along the Biomass satellite's flight path (length) and 60 km across in width, with north oriented to the right.
