Today exactly one year ago, PROBA-V was put in operational mode. In this first year, the satellite has continuously observed the Earth and provided us with measurement data to monitor among others vegetation dynamics, biomass production and agricultural yield in a changing climate. To celebrate the completion of the first operational year, we present you 12 syntheses of Europe, one for each month. The images show the seasonal cycle from a partly snow-covered continent in December 2013 towards a snow-free and fully vegetated continent during the summer months and finally the first autumn snow in October 2014.
