“Land Surface Temperature (LST) is the radiative skin temperature of the land derived from solar radiation. It is a basic determinant of the terrestrial thermal behaviour, as it controls the effective radiating temperature of the Earth’s surface” [1]. LST is … Continue reading Land Surface Temperature
Since we started to publish Sentinel-3 Level 2 world maps via our EO browser we took the challenge to process a land worldwide cloud free image of the Earth with an RGB natural colour composition. Indeed with a proper tailoring of … Continue reading Mappamondo: Copernicus Natural Color World
One of the mission needs of Sentinel-3 constellation is directly related to the evaluation of climate change effects on Earth. Indeed the spacecrafts and their payloads haven’t been designed to identify small objects on the ground but to revisit the … Continue reading Time Series of Sentinel-3 Data
Our third step in the framework of World health monitoring and evaluation of climate changes effects on Earth stands on oceans and seas mapping. Copernicus Sentinel-3 mission, as already described for land products, systematically delivers to the community a large … Continue reading Oceans Mapping with Sentinel-3
The last week we have advertised our new born project aiming to reach a global land and marine monitoring of the World with Sentinel-3. Indeed this mission offers a large dataset of geophysical data really usefull in the framework of … Continue reading World Land Mapping with Sentinel-3
Copernicus Sentinel-3 mission has been designed and developed mainly to focus on the climate changes effects impacting on our planet and is carrying on board several instruments with medium-low resolution in order to pursuit this goal. From this perspective the … Continue reading Level 3 Mosaics over Africa
In late March 2018, strong winds caused by a train of low-pressure areas appeared to fuel the flow of dust across Africa. Dust storms are quite common during the Spring in the Sahara, because the weather used to change with … Continue reading Intense Dust Storms in Africa
The last week a large part of the Europe has been smashed by a wave of cold siberian weather carried by the Burian. Burian is a strong wind of cold air and it is indeed characteristic of the steppes located … Continue reading Burian
During the last days in the remotest parts of the Indian Ocean a tropical cyclone was formed. Its name is Cebile and he reached the category strength 4. The storm was luckily formed far away from Madagascar, Sri Lanka and … Continue reading Cebile storm over the Indian Ocean
The last November 22th the Copernicus Sentinel-3A satellite captured a long stream of discolored water over the entire Adriatic Sea coast of Italy. This singular sight from the outer space is fascinating and the wide impacted area is perfectly exploited … Continue reading Upwelling over the Adriatic Sea
