Huelva Estuary in Spain

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.

China: Man Narrowly Escapes Whirlpools While Rafting in Chongqing

This video captured the moment a Chinese man was nearly swept into several whirlpools while rafting on the Yangtze River on July 15, 2025, in Chongqing. The footage showed his inflatable boat being pulled into strong currents, spinning rapidly in circles. The man struggled to regain control as the vessel teetered dangerously, caught in the whirlpools and spinning repeatedly. Eventually, he managed to steer to safety and paddle into calmer waters.
