Description
English: In 2020, the exceptional Siberian fire season shows no signs of ending. It has been record-breaking in terms of intensity but also because of its duration. Despite the arrival of the first snow, starting from the second week of September, numerous fires have occurred in Sakha Republic severely impacting local air quality. The containment activities involved 450 people and 99 equipment . This visualisation, derived from the data acquired by the Copernicus Sentinel-3 and Sentinel-2 satellites on 19 September 2020, shows the smoke cloud from the wildfires ongoing in Sakha Republic together with a zoom on one of them. The Copernicus Sentinel satellites deliver free and open data that can be used to monitor wildfires and their impact on land, vegetation and air quality.
