Summary

Description
English: This image, acquired by one of the Copernicus Sentinel-2 satellites on 23 September 2022, shows the largest city in Corsica, Ajaccio. Ajaccio is nestled between the mountains and the Mediterranean Sea. Its gulf has been classified as a Natura 2000 site because of the significant presence of seagrass habitats of Posidonia, many reefs and caves and two marine species particularly valuable, the bottlenose dolphin and the loggerhead turtle. Ajaccio and its suburbs are already facing the effects of climate change. According to the data from the Copernicus Climate Change Service, the air temperature of the area has been ~0.8°C higher than the reference values in the past ten years.
