Sentinel Image of the week: intriguing cloud patterns near the Cape Verde islands The cloud patterns are known as von Kármán vortices and are formed over the ocean when islands disrupt the wind flow. The strength of the wind affects the patterns of the swirls. Satellites Image of the week: phytoplankton bloom from space The bloom is most likely caused by coccolithophores (cyan colour) and other phytoplankton species. Phytoplankton play a key role in marine ecosystems as the basis of the food chain.
