Huelva Estuary in Spain

Handout photo dated on November 16, 2025 shows Huelva Estuary in Spain. On 16 November 2025, one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites acquired this image of the Huelva estuary in south-western Spain, where the Tinto and Odiel rivers converge before flowing into the Atlantic Ocean. Recent rainfall has increased surface runoff and sediment transport, strengthening the contrasting outflow from the two rivers. The image shows distinct colour variations produced by differences in water chemistry and suspended materials. As these waters mix with tidal currents, they create gradual transitions and clearly defined plumes, highlighting the estuary’s dynamic behaviour. Copernicus Sentinel satellite data enables continuous monitoring of river plumes, estuarine dynamics, and land-sea interactions. This information is important for assessing the environmental impact of sediment transport, supporting water quality monitoring, and informing coastal zone management in fragile ecosystems.

Deli River Pollution in Medan - Indonesia

The remains of the Hypostomus plecostomus fish were identified in a tributary of the Deli River in Medan, North Sumatra, Indonesia. This occurrence highlights the harmful consequences of pollution linked to industrialisation and it's impact on ecosystems, and the labourers depend on the natural resources. It emphasises the significance of environmental justice as a component of the broader social justice movement, particularly in observances of May Day, on April 30, 2025 in Medan, Indonesia.
