Rainforest river in Brazil, satellite image. This river snaking through the rainforest is the Jurua River in western Brazil. One of the longest tributaries of the Amazon River, it flows slowly through the half-flooded forest as it traverses the Amazon Basin. Loops of the river are cut off as the course changes, forming classic 'oxbow lakes'. This composite combines three radar images (red, green and blue) acquired on 2 January, 1 February and 3 March 2012. Image data obtained by the European Space Agency's Envisat satellite. | |
