Summary
[edit]DescriptionUnseasonal high temperatures in Greenland.jpg |
English: This image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 4 March 2023, shows the capital of Greenland, Nuuk. An intense heatwave is ongoing in this region of the island, with air temperatures more than 20 degrees above the historical average for this time of year. On the same day that this image was acquired, the temperature in Nuuk reached a record of 15.1°C, which is the highest ever recorded in March in this area of Greenland. The Copernicus Sentinels satellite missions play an important role in monitoring the impact of climate change in remote areas such as the Arctic. |
