Northern Rocky Mountains Provincial Park in Canada observed by "SHIKISAI"　 In western Canada, Northern Rocky Mountains Provincial Park preserves some of the last remaining pristine wilderness. Listed as a World Heritage Site, its rugged mountain landscapes are dotted with glaciers and lingering snowfields that persist even through summer. These serve as vital sources for rivers, wetlands, and play a key role in sustaining the ecosystem and regional watercycle.　 Observation date: April 18, 2024　 Observation area: Canada　 Observation satellite: Global Change Observation Mission - Climate "SHIKISAI" (GCOM-C)
