Aerosol dispersion

Title: Aerosol dispersion from Lytton's fires

Description: This map shows the Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) values obtained from a Copernicus Sentinel-3 Synergy Level 2 AOD product, acquired on 1 July 2021.

It is possible to observe higher AOD values generated by fires in Lytton, Canada (from dark yellow to red in the map). The aerosols generated by the fires are transported by several kilometres to the North-East of Canada.
