Summary
DescriptionNegro-Amazon confluence and Manaus (Brazil) from space.jpg |
English: Confluence of the Rio Negro (dark) and the Solimões River (Amazon River) to the Amazon River at Manaus (Brazil). This image is captured on 7 February 2018 by Copernicus Sentinel-2, a two-satellite mission. Each satellite carries a high-resolution camera that images Earth’s surface in 13 spectral bands and can help monitor changes in land cover and inland waters. It is also featured on the Earth from Space video programme. The Rio Negro gets its dark colouring from leaf and plant matter that has decayed and dissolved in its waters. |
