The fire has produced a plume of smoke that stretched 1600 km southwest towards Tunisia.

Burned area can be seen in the image in dark brown.

Urban heat islands occur when natural land cover - such as vegetation - is replaced with buildings, roads, pavements and other surfaces that absorb and re-emit more of the Sun’s heat. ☀️

Urban areas become ‘islands’ of higher temperatures compared to outlying rural areas.

Land-surface temperature data is important to understand and monitor urban heat islands and to plan mitigation strategies to reduce the effects of this phenomenon.

For this, @esa's upcoming LSTM mission will provide land-surface temperatures at higher resolution.
