What’s the mitigation strategies against significant and potentially toxic blooms when ESA issues a warning (or the Sentinel sattelites are used to issue a warning)?
I can’t imagine any of the strategies to be acute, as that would likely incur severe damage beyond reducing the amount of algae; so I assume these mitigations are mostly long term or policy-level interventions?
Το περιεχόμενο του βίντεο μού κίνησε την περιέργεια να μάθω αν και πού παρατηρείται το φαινόμενο στην ευρύτερη περιοχή της χώρας μου!
Thanks, Coperice and ESA, for motivating and inciting us to learn more and more!! 🌏🚀
Man o man milky green 60's lava lamp … One of many crazy shots from …spaaaace….thank you space girl….
My Friday fix comes with the delight of wonder with an aftertaste of wistfulness. The toxic swirls are like an underworld version of the Great Wave off Kanagawa!
The hoodie looks amazing 😀
Background music?
Demasiado encantador este vídeo …no abstracto do espaço e na minha perspectiva de significância..um pé na harmonia e sem muros ou portões…pode-se assim roubar a beleza e sem consequências, ver mais de perto o ser do mar Báltico! Um plano muito impressionista ..que até me fez lembrar um artista…que pintava paisagens!! O Copernicus pintou maravilhosamente mais um lugar belo do planeta!!
Amazing how stable the tracks of boats/ships through the scene must be, to be visible traversing large sections of the image. The eddies must be moving at a very slow speed.
any way to buy posters from ESA?
Buenas , impresionantes imagenes , gracias a ustedes las podemos apreciar y observar.
She is so beautiful.
The Baltic looking like a painting by Van Gogh 🙂 Hope the astronauts on the ISS can see it.
Great video.
