Pukaki is the largest alpine lake of the Mackenzie Basin in #NewZealand 🇳🇿
The turquoise colour of its water is due to the fine silt particles, or glacial flour, that reach the lake as a result of glacial erosion 🏔️

First map ever of "dark fishing" (vessels without AIS) in the Mediterranean. One year's of vessel detections from Sentinel-1, matched to AIS, @GlobalFishWatch: globalfishingwatch.org/data/… (orange is without AIS, green is with)
