Space images show UK sweltering

Sensors in space have recorded the dramatic increases in land temperatures and air pollution as the UK swelters in record-breaking July heat.

The images show major cities like London, Birmingham and Liverpool experiencing the highest levels of the air pollutant nitrogen dioxide (NO2).

Wisley in Surrey recorded an unprecedented 36.5C (97.3F) on 19 July.

The images were generated from data gathered by the European Space Agency's Envisat and Nasa's Aura satellites.
