In Antarctica in January, 2013 – the summer at the South Pole – scientists launched 20 balloons up into the air to study an enduring mystery of space weather: when the giant radiation belts surrounding Earth lose material, where do the extra particles actually go?

La Cité de la réussite

Locals look at burning forest during a wildfire on the island of Evia, Greece. When trees die by fire, they release into the atmosphere the carbon stored within them. This is why the effect of wildfires on emissions is among the most feared climate feedback loops â that the worldâs forests, which have typically been carbon sinks, would become carbon sources, unleashing all that stored gas.

To meet more than the 20-year operational life of the mission, the full Meteosat Third Generation system comprises six satellites: four Imaging (MTG-I) satellites and two Sounding (MTG-S) satellites. This image features one MTG-I satellite (in the foreground) and one MTG-S satellite. When fully deployed, the system will include two MTG-I satellites operating in tandem – one scanning Europe and Africa every 10 minutes and the other only Europe but every 2.5 minutes – and one MTG-S satellite to provide local-area coverage over selected parts of Earth, with a repeat cycle of typically five minutes. The combination of MTG’s innovative instruments along with their increased resolution and sensitivity is set to take weather forecasting to the next level, particularly in the challenging task of early detection and prediction of rapidly evolving and potentially dangerous weather events such as severe thunderstorms. The MTG-I satellites carry a Flexible Combined Imager and a Lightning Imager. The MTG-S satellites carry an Infrared Sounder and the Copernicus Sentinel-4 instrument.

Rachel cuts flowers on the Regather Farm near Sheffield, UK. The Regather Farm is a 15 acre organic farm on the outskirts of Sheffield. It is run by Regather, a community benefit society working to improve food and build community in Sheffield. They also run a veg box scheme, and deliver flowers across the local area, supplied by the farm, and many other community projects.

Conférence : « Modéliser les transitions agricoles »

July 26, 2017 - Nipton, CA- Contracted workers clean Heliostats at the Ivanpah Solar Project, owned by NRG Energy, Bright Source Energy,Bechtel and Google. Over 300,000 software-controlled mirrors track the sun in two dimensions and reflect the sunlight to boilers that sit atop three 459 foot tall power towers. The facility employs over 65 operations and maintenance workers and over 2,600 jobs during it's 3 year construction period. This image of a worker cleaning a solar energy mirror is unusual and likely to invite the audience to discover more. Our focus groups indicated a strong desire by audiences to see new stories.
