What a great way to start the day! Talking about the recently released innovative @DEarthAfrica continental Waterbodies Monitoring service on the morning show #RiseandShine @channelafrica1
[On-Air] @DEarthAfrica has launched a Waterbodies Monitoring Service offering 40 years of detailed earth observation data on African waterbodies, including lakes, reservoirs, & wetlands. Dr @LisaRebEO, Lead Scientist @DEarthAfrica, discusses with @AurelieKalenga #RiseandShine

#DEAfrica condenses decades of satellite images to assess wetland status and seasonal and interannual dynamics, enabling our users to understand the impacts of growing populations and climate change on these valuable ecosystems
Replying to @DEarthAfrica
As we celebrate the diversity of wetlands on this #WorldWetlandsDay, if there is a wetland you would like to understand better, such as the Barrage Al Massira Ramsar site depicted, please contact our team: Drs @LisaRebEO, @mhalabisky1 and Mpho Sadiki. #climatechange #Africa

A sneak peek on what we have been working on for the past few months, a new @DEarthAfrica continental service tracking the dynamics of >600,000 water features
We are thrilled to offer a preview of our upcoming Waterbodies service. Launching soon, this continental service will equip decision-makers with access to #data for detailed analyses of over 600,000 individual waterbodies across Africa. linkpages.pro/qGbnKL
