Ozone hole at the south pole from 1995 to 2008 - Ozone hole in south pole from 1995 to 2008 - September ozone level averages above the south pole from 1995 to 2008. The ozone hole measured on 7 October 2008 at the southern pole is larger than the previous year, but remains smaller than in 2006. Image based on data obtained by ENVISAT, ERS-2, and METOP. Monthly averages of total ozone values for September over the South Pole for the last 10 years using measurements from the Scanning Imaging Absorption Spectrometer for Atmospheric Cartography (SCIAMACHY) sensor aboard ESA's Envisat, the Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment (GOME) aboard ESA's ERS - 2 and its follow - on instrument GOME - 2 aboard EUMETOP

Lake Chad seen by satellite in 2007 - Lake Chad as seen by satellite in 2007 - Lake Chad seen by Envisat satellite on 19 December 2007. This Envisat image highlights Lake Chad, a freshwater lake located in central Africa at the junction of Chad, Cameroon, Nigeria and Niger. Lake Chad, once Africa's third largest inland water body, is located in West Africa's Sahel region - a transition zone between the Sahara Desert to the north and savannas and woodlands to the south. Because the lake is shallow, between 1 m in the northwest and 7 m in the south, it has always undergone seasonal fluctuations. However, it has shrunk dramatically over the last four decades due to a decrease in rainfall and an increase in the amount of water used for irrigation projects. Lake Chad's surface area was 25 000 sq km in the early 1960s, compared with 1350 sq km in 2001. Lake Chad is fed primarily by the Chari and Logone Rivers, which are both located in the southwest and flow northward into the lake, which do

Congo River Basin seen by satellite - Congo River Basin's rainforests - The Congo River Basin photographed by Envisat satellite on January 14, 2009. Its forests extend through the Democratic Republic of Congo (east of the Congo River), the Republic of Congo (west of the river), Gabon (dark green on the left side), Equatorial Guinea (above Gabon), Cameroon and the Central African Republic. This Envisat image, acquired on 14 January 2009, features the Congo River Basin's rainforests, the second largest in the world after the Amazon, and the Congo River, Africa's second longest river after the Nile. The basin covers an area of more than 4 million km.

Congo River Basin seen by satellite - Congo River Basin's rainforests - The Congo River Basin photographed by Envisat satellite on January 14, 2009. Its forests extend through the Democratic Republic of Congo (east of the Congo River), the Republic of Congo (west of the river), Gabon (dark green on the left side), Equatorial Guinea (above Gabon), Cameroon and the Central African Republic. This Envisat image, acquired on 14 January 2009, features the Congo River Basin's rainforests, the second largest in the world after the Amazon, and the Congo River, Africa's second longest river after the Nile. The basin covers an area of more than 4 million km.

Volcanic ash cloud in Iceland - Volcanic ash cloud from Iceland - The volcanic ash cloud caused by the eruption of the Eyjafjoell volcano in Iceland seen by the Envisat satellite on 19 April 2010. In this image taken on 19 April 2010 by ESA's Envisat satellite, a heavy plume of ash from the Eyjafjallajoekull Volcano in Iceland is seen travelling in a roughly southeasterly direction. The volcano has been emitting steam and ash since its recent eruptions began on 20 March, and as observable, the emissions continue. The plume, visible in brownish - grey, is approximately 400 km long

Iceland seen from the satellite ENVISAT - Iceland seen by satellite - Iceland covered with snow on 4 October 2008. This Envisat image, acquired on 4 October, features the island of Iceland covered in the first snow of the 2008 winter. More than 11 percent of the island is covered by glaciers. The Vatnajokull glacier, the largest glacier in Europe, is located in the southeast where the white area is more prominent. Reykjavik, the country's capital, is located in the southwest - slightly inland from the boot - shaped peninsula on the bottom left that extends out into the Atlantic Ocean. Brilliant colours of blue - green are visible swirling in the waters off the south and western coasts. These are caused by large concentrations of phytoplankton, which form the basis of the ocean's food chain and have an essential role in the global ecosystem

Great Barrier Reef in Australia from satellite - The Great Barrier Reef in Australia from satellite - The world's largest coral reef that extends off Queensland, Australia, seen by Envisat satellite on 18 May 2008. This Envisat satellite image features one of the natural wonders of the world - the Great Barrier Reef in the Coral Sea off the east coast of Queensland, Australia. Australian researchers have discovered that Envisat's Medium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MERIS) sensor can detect coral bleaching down to 10 m deep. This means Envisat could potentially map coral bleaching on a global scale. MERIS acquired this image on 18 May 2008, working in Full Resolution mode to yield a spatial resolution of 300 m

Below, Lake Edward, then Lake Kivu, and at the bottom left, Lake Tanganyka, which stretches for about 670 km. Image obtained by ENVISAT satellite on 6 October 2008. This Envisat image highlights lakes in the Western Rift of the Great Rift Valley, a geological fault system of Southwest Asia and East Africa. The series of lakes in and around the Great Rift Valley are referred to as the Great Lakes of Africa. Lake Victoria (visible in the top centre) is the largest of all African lakes and is the second widest freshwater body in the world. The lake straddles three countries; the northern half sits in Uganda, the southern half in Tanzania and a portion of its north - eastern section is in Kenya. The oblong - shaped lake

La France vue par satellite - 2009 - France seen from space - 2009 - La France sous la neige, seen on 7 January 2009 by the European satellite Envisat. This satellite image shows most of central and northern France covered by a white layer of snow, while regions closer to the Atlantic coast remain largely snow free. At the lower edge of the image the Pyrenees mountain range is visible surrounded by thick layers of clouds bringing further snowfall to the region. Towards the upper right Paris can just be seen under the cloud layer at the top edge of the image. The structures visible in the snow are due to different land - use patterns. While agricultural and grass covered areas remain snow - covered and largely white, the snow has fallen off trees in forested regions, which therefore appear darker. This image was acquired by Envisat's Medium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MERIS) instrument on 7 January 2009

The narrow shape of the ash cloud indicates a lot of wind is blowing in a southerly direction towards the west of Ireland. Also visible, the area around the Hakla volcano (east of Eyjafjallajoekull) now appears black as the snow and ice that surrounded it in April have been completely covered by ash. The volcano has been emitting steam and ash since its recent eruptions began on 20 March

The Aral Sea was once the fourth largest lake in the world; it began shrinking in the 1960s when the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) diverted the Amu Darya (southern feed of the lake) and Syr Darya (north western feed) rivers to irrigate the cotton crops of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, with the result that the water level has dropped by 13 metres and the salinity of the water has tripled in the past two decades. Fish populations have died off, and wind - blown sand and salts threaten the entire region with the advancement of the Qyzylqum Desert (centre right of the image). Today the inland sea covers about half of its former area and its water volume have decreased by about 75 per cent

The Alps seen by satellite Envisat - The Alps as seen from satellite Envisat - Les Alpes seen by satellite ENVISAT on 8 December 2008. The snow - capped, crescent - shaped Alps and Italy's Apennines mountain chain are shown in this Envisat image. Snowfall in early winter - for meteorologists winter begins on the 1 December - covered the whole mountain areas with fresh snow, while the lower lands in the south and north of the mountains remained snow - free. Due to this snow cover and a relatively low illumination angle of the sun, the ranges and valleys of the mountains stand out in the image. Much of the whiteness seen in the top of the image is cloud cover, but fog is visible in the valleys such as the Rhine. The Alps - central Europe's major mountain range - extend some 1,200 km through France, Switzerland, Italy and Austria and down through Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and Montenegro and Albania as the Dinaric Alps.
