Euphorbia balsamifera subsp. adenensis (Euphorbiaceae) new to Socotra and notes on its taxonomy
Euphorbia balsamifera Aiton has been treated since 1965 as a disjunct species with two subspecies, subsp. balsamifera in the Canary Islands (Spain) and adjacent parts of northwestern Africa, and subsp. adenensis (Deflers) P.R.O.Bally in southwestern Asia and northeastern tropical Africa. However, in 2021, E.

Applicability of T-S algorithms to the Canary Islands region
The high cost of oceanographic cruises often makes it advisable to use opportunity vessels for simple measurements, such as determining the temperature of the water column with expandable bathythermographs (XBT). In this work we examine the goodness and reliability of a method aimed at obtaining the maximum possible information from XBT data, and we ...

The Canary Islands origin: a unifying model [PDF]
A new model, partially based on the three most widely cited previous hypotheses, is proposed to explain the genesis of the Canary Islands. From the hotspot hypothesis it retains the notion that the islands originated from a thermal anomaly in the mantle.

New 40Ar/39Ar age and geochemical data from seamounts in the Canary and Madeira volcanic provinces: support for the mantle plume hypothesis [PDF]
The role of mantleplumes in the formation of intraplate volcanic islands and seamount chains is being increasingly questioned. Particular examples are the abundant and somewhat irregularly distributed island and seamount volcanoes off the coast of ...
