English: This image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-3 satellites on 21 July 2021 at 01:54 UTC, shows Typhoon In-Fa south of the Ryukyu Islands in Japan. In-Fa is the third typhoon to form in the Philippine Sea in 2021. According to forecasts by the Japanese Meteorological Agency, it will reach the island of Taiwan in the coming days, affecting the capital Taipei. Powerful typhoons regularly occur during the summer in the Philippine Sea, although they can form throughout the year due to the warm temperature of waters of in the Pacific Ocean. Thus, unlike the Atlantic hurricane season, the typhoon season in the western Pacific has no defined beginning or end. Data derived from images acquired by the Copernicus Sentinel-3 mission enable improvements in scientific understanding of the atmosphere's composition and provide essential information for climate studies and weather forecasts. |
