This image observed by satellite Landsat 8 displays four islands in Russian high Arctic. Based on the white color , snow texture, ice cubes, the brown mountain-like feature and no presence of vegetation shown in the image, it is a tundra in area of very high latitude. The image is important since it helps scientists do research about different terrains in the world and may be used in studying global warming as in the image, some ice on the border of the island in the lower right place are melting.
