RT @USGS: Landsat satellite imagery captures the progression of the Santa Rosa Island Fire 🔥
These Landsat images show the progression of the Santa Rosa Island Fire on Santa Rosa Island, part of Channel Islands National Park off the coast of California. By May 24, the fire had burned more than 18,000 acres across the island’s southeastern terrain, leaving a large, dark burn scar visible from space.
Landsat data are used during and after wildfires to map burned areas, monitor fire progression, assess vegetation damage, evaluate erosion risks, and support long-term ecosystem recovery efforts.
The long-term @USGS/@NASA Landsat record also helps scientists study changing fire patterns and landscape resilience over time. These observations support land managers and fire agencies as they respond to wildfires and assess impacts across affected landscapes. Through the U.S. Wildland Fire Service, federal agencies coordinate wildfire response, risk mitigation, and burned-area rehabilitation across more than 500 million acres of Interior-administered and Tribal lands.

📸 2: Landsat 8 image acquired May 24, 2026, showing the extensive burn scar left by the Santa Rosa Island Fire across the southeastern end of the island as containment efforts continued.

Disaster risk can be sudden or everyday.
⚡ Intensive risk: High-impact, lower-frequency events cause sudden, catastrophic losses.
🌧️ Extensive risk: Frequent, lower-impact (eg. floods, storms, droughts) – impacts accumulate.
Both must be reduced➡️ https://t.co/9L0rm7zwhS https://t.co/Qslv9dDazk
