🌊 Image of the Week: Ocean Colour Swirls South of Iceland
This week’s image was submitted by José Antonio López Ferreiro, one of the winners of our
#EUMETSAT40 image competition. 👏
The image, one of three winning entries, shows intricate phytoplankton swirls south of Iceland captured by
#Copernicus Sentinel-3 on 21 May 2025.
José described it as “an image of discovery itself” - where swirling patterns of mesoscale circulation and biological response create something that is, in his words, both immediately visual and scientific.
