Volcanic signatures in time gravity variations during the volcanic unrest on El Hierro (Canary Islands) [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2014 Gravity changes occurring during the initial stage of the 2011–2012 El Hierro submarine eruption are interpreted in terms of the pre-eruptive signatures during the episode of unrest.

Identifying Key Biodiversity Areas Based on Distinct Genetic Diversity. [PDF]
Mol Ecol ResourABSTRACT Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) are sites that contribute significantly to the global persistence of biodiversity. Distinct genetic diversity has been introduced as one of the metrics to estimate whether a site holds a threshold proportion of a species' global genetic diversity during the KBA identification process.

Evolutionary Changes in Crassulacean Acid Metabolism (CAM) and Related Traits During the Diversification of <i>Aichryson</i> (Crassulaceae) on the Macaronesian Islands. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe explore evolutionary changes in Crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) and associated traits during the diversification of Aichryson (Crassulaceae) across the Macaronesian Islands. By combining field data, physiological measurements and phylogenetic analysis, we identify shifts in photosynthetic strategy linked to habitat transitions.

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 117-131., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Improving the 14c dating of marine shells from the Canary Islands for constructing more reliable and accurate chronologies [PDF]
, 2012 Radiocarbon dating of closely associated marine mollusk shells and terrestrial material (charred wood or bone) collected from archaeological contexts on Tenerife and Fuerteventura islands allowed us to quantify the marine C-14 reservoir effect (Delta R ...

The 2011 submarine volcanic eruption in El Hierro (Canary Islands) [PDF]
, 2013 Forty years after the Teneguía Volcano (La Palma, 1971), a submarine eruption took place off the town of La Restinga, south of El Hierro, the smallest and youngest island of the Canarian Archipelago. Precursors allowed an early detection of the event and

Genetic and phenotypic divergence in an island bird: isolation by distance, by colonization or by adaptation? [PDF]
, 2014 Discerning the relative roles of adaptive and nonadaptive processes in generating differences among populations and species, as well as how these processes interact, is a fundamental aim in biology.

Flank stability and processes off the western Canary Islands: a review from El Hierro and La Palma
Scientia Marina, 2001 The morphological characterisation of the western submarine island flanks of El Hierro and La Palma differentiates four type-zones that may give new insights into the evolution of oceanic island slopes.
