This week’s image of the week shows a large phytoplankton bloom in the North Sea, off the west coast of Scotland.

The study aimed to review state of the art deblurring algorithms and develop the two most promising for ASCAT and SCA data deblurring.

This week’s image of the week focuses on Saharan dust moving across the Mediterranean Sea and passing over the Balearic Islands.

The CO2 Monitoring mission (CO2M) will form the key space component of the Copernicus Operational Anthropogenic CO2 Emissions Monitoring & Verification Support (MVS) Capacity.

This week’s image of the week focuses on Saharan dust moving across the Red Sea towards Saudi Arabia. 

Desert dust particles are lifted into the atmosphere by gusts of surface wind and can be transported and deposited thousands of kilometres away. 

When dust travels over populated areas, it can reduce air quality and impact health by causing respiratory problems and cause flight delays. 

The image was captured by one of the two Copernicus Sentinel-3 satellites.
