Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This image, captured by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 10 June 2023, shows the Drömling Biosphere Reserve, one of the 11 new biosphere reserves recently designated by UNESCO. Located on both sides of the border between Saxony-Anhalt and Lower Saxony, this reserve is a vibrant mosaic of ecosystems shaped by centuries of human activity and meticulous nature conservation efforts. Around 54% of the biosphere reserve's area is designated as a bird sanctuary by the European network of protected areas (Natura 2000). The use of data from the Copernicus Sentinel satellites, combined with in situ data, is proving to be instrumental in monitoring protected areas and preserving their biodiversity.
