Bangladesh: Durga Puja 2025
October 2, 2025, Jhalokhati, Dhaka, Bangladesh: According to a tradition dating back to the Zamindari era, on the day of Vijaya Dashami, the Durga idol is carried from the Kirtipasha Sarbojonin Durga Temple in Jhalokathi to the local Dashahara fair in the afternoon. After the fair, the ritual concludes at night with the immersion of the idol in the river once the tide rises. This centuries-old practice is regarded as an important religious festival by the local community. This year was no exception.(Credit Image: © Rubel Karmaker/ZUMA Press Wire (FOTO: DUKAS/ZUMA)

NEWS - NASA zeigt Rückgang des Wasserstands im Lake Mead über 20 Jahre, Arizona, USA
Mandatory Credit: Photo by Shutterstock (13051635a)
This image, taken by NASA's Landsat 8 satellite on July 3, 2022, details a 22-year downward trend of Lake Mead's water levels, which now stand at their lowest since April 1937, when the reservoir was filled with water for the first time. As of July 18, 2022, Lake Mead was filled to just 27 percent of capacity. The largest reservoir in the United States supplies water to millions of people across seven states, tribal lands, and northern Mexico. It now also provides a stark illustration of climate change and a long-term drought that may be the worst in the U.S. West in 12 centuries.

The detailed images below include a view from Landsat 8 taken on July 8, 2021 (middle). The light-colored fringes along the shorelines of Lake Mead in 2021 and 2022 are mineralized areas of the lakeshore that were formerly underwater when the reservoir was filled closer to capacity. The phenomenon is often referred to as a "bathtub ring." As of July 18, 2022, Lake Mead was filled to just 27 percent of capacity. The largest reservoir in the United States supplies water to millions of people across seven states, tribal lands, and northern Mexico. It now also provides a stark illustration of climate change and a long-term drought that may be the worst in the U.S. West in 12 centuries.
