Please submit comments or questions to Emily Hague [email protected] <a href="/tags/science/" rel="tag">#science</a> <a href="/tags/marinemammals/" rel="tag">#marinemammals</a> <a href="/tags/mapstodon/" rel="tag">#mapstodon</a> <a href="/tags/atlas/" rel="tag">#atlas</a> <a href="/tags/blueconnect/" rel="tag">#blueconnect</a> <a href="/tags/horizonoceanmission/" rel="tag">#HorizonOceanMission</a> <a href="/tags/gischat/" rel="tag">#gischat</a> <a href="/tags/marinebiology/" rel="tag">#marinebiology</a> <a href="/tags/cetaceans/" rel="tag">#cetaceans</a>

Atlas of Citizen Science Contributions to Marine Mammal Science
This google map presents examples collated (so far) of ways citizen and community scientists have contributed to marine mammal research, particularly to monitoring. The final map will be published within an open access peer reviewed publication. The left shows a legend with marine mammal species and the right is a map showing the locations of information collected on marine mammal research.

NISAR image of North Dakota, United States. The colors are black, orange, and purple. Image shows agriculture plots, fields, and center-pivot irrigation systems. On Aug. 23, NISAR imaged land adjacent to northeastern North Dakota’s Forest River. Light-colored wetlands and forests line the river’s banks, while circular and rectangular plots throughout the image appear in shades that indicate the land may be pasture or cropland with corn or soy.

🛰️ ICYMI New Imagery Press Release 🛰️EUMETSAT has released the first Earth images from its METimage instrument on board the recently launched Metop Second Generation A1 (Metop-SGA1) satellite.<a href="https://www.eumetsat.int/metimage-delivers-spectacular-first-images" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="www.eumetsat.int/metimage-delivers-spectacular-first-images">https://www.eumetsat.int/metimage-delivers-spectacular-first-images</a> HT to <a href="https://fediscience.org/@niklasjordan" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@niklasjordan</a> who runs <a href="https://niklas.social/@eumbot" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@eumbot</a> which posts live natural color composites of EUMETSATs Meteosat satellites at 15-minute intervals. <a href="/tags/remotesensing/" rel="tag">#remotesensing</a> <a href="/tags/satellite/" rel="tag">#satellite</a> <a href="/tags/satellites/" rel="tag">#satellites</a> <a href="/tags/eumetsat/" rel="tag">#eumetsat</a> <a href="/tags/eumetsat/" rel="tag">#eumetsat</a> <a href="/tags/earthobservation/" rel="tag">#earthobservation</a> <a href="/tags/gis/" rel="tag">#gis</a> <a href="/tags/gischat/" rel="tag">#gischat</a>

Captured between 10:43 and 10:59 CEST on 24 September, METimage’s very first image shows white clouds connected with a cold weather front sweeping across central Europe and signs of convective storm activity developing over the Adriatic and central Mediterranean seas. High altitude, wispy cirrus clouds hint to potential turbulence over the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg, while thin aircraft contrails are clearly visible over cloud-free western Denmark. Where skies are clear, the Earth’s surface is revealed in fine detail: shimmering lakes can be seen in Türkiye, including the bright white salt flats of Lake Tuz, as well as the green landscapes of the Carpathians and Balkans, and Libya’s Waw an Namus volcanic caldera. Compared with AVHRR’s ~1 km resolution, METimage’s 500-metre view delivers about four times more detail, making it possible to pick out narrow cloud streets, thin valley fog and subtle coastal colour changes with far greater clarity.
