Summary
[edit]DescriptionSiberian heatwave.jpg |
English: Between 21 and 23 May, the Arctic Circle experienced the first heatwave of 2020. The town of Khatanga (Lat 72° North), Siberia (Russia), reached a record temperature of 25.4°C on 22 May (the normal maximum is 0°C, and the previous record was 20.4°C). This image, acquired by a Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellite on 22 May 2020, shows the town of Khatanga in the Taymyr Peninsula that belongs to the Siberian Federal District. Being located on the Khatanga River, in the Far North of Russia, Khatanga is inside the Arctic Circle and is one of the northernmost inhabited locations of Russia. Copernicus Sentinel-2, with a maximum revisit time of five days, is very useful for monitoring the impact of climate change in such an important and delicate environment as the Arctic Circle. |
