Summary
[edit]DescriptionSediment plumes in North Sea waters.jpg |
English: Several extratropical rainstorms have hit Northern Europe during the second week of February 2022. Amongst them, Storm Eunice has heavily impacted the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and parts of Germany. The exceptionally strong winds, whose speed exceeded 180 km/m in some areas of Southern England, have caused 18 causalities and forced tens of thousands of people to live without electricity for several days. These winds have generated waves as tall as 7 metres, causing the displacement of large quantities of sediments in the North Sea. This image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-3 satellites on 26 February 2022, shows a long trail of sediments, moved by the aforementioned storms, spanning from the oriental coast of the United Kingdom to the Dutch coast. |
