Estuaries near the coast of Guinea?Bissau branch out like a network of roots from a plant. With their long tendrils, the rivers meander through the country?s lowland plains to join the Atlantic Ocean. On the way, they carry water, nutrients, but also sediments out from the land. This natural?color image captures the movement of the sediments as the rivers move east to west. The image was acquired on May 17, 2018, by the Operational Land Imager (OLI) on Landsat 8. The discoloration is most apparent in Rio Geba, which runs past the country?s capital city of Bissau. https://science.nasa.gov/earth/earth-observatory/the-meandering-estuaries-of-guineabissau-92266/
