Mangroves can protect coastal communities from storm damage, reducing storm surges by 66%.

Mangroves protect us from climate change, preserve biodiversity, support livelihoods & more.

For the first time, @FAO & experts from around the world have mapped the current state of mangrove forests to help safeguard these ecological treasures. fao.org/interactive/remote-s… - United Nations

This #FullDiskFriday, we thought we'd show a view of the Earth's Northern Hemisphere via @NOAA's @JPSSprogram polar-orbiting satellites.

These satellites orbit the Earth 14 times a day, collecting swaths of imagery that are then stitched together to form a full image.
