El Hierro (Canaries) : une île et le choix des transitions énergétique et écologique

open access: yesVertigO, 2014
The island of El Hierro (270 km2 and 8,000 inhabitants) is the most isolated in the Canary archipelago. Since June 2014, El Hierro is getting on its way toward the objective of being self-sustained with 100 % of renewable energy thanks to wind turbines ...

On the levelised cost of energy of windfarms

open access: yesInternational Journal of Sustainable Energy, 2020
As windfarms spread, so have the discussions concerning their economics. Some argue from a basic definition of Levelised Cost of Energy (LCOE), that wind energy is more cost effective than other energy sources.

Analysis of Volcanic Thermohaline Fluctuations of Tagoro Submarine Volcano (El Hierro Island, Canary Islands, Spain)

open access: yesGeosciences, 2021
Temperature and conductivity fluctuations caused by the hydrothermal emissions released during the degasification stage of the Tagoro submarine volcano (Canary Islands, Spain) have been analysed as a robust proxy for characterising and forecasting the ...

Pronounced fixation, strong population differentiation and complex population history in the Canary Islands blue tit subspecies complex.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Evolutionary molecular studies of island radiations may lead to insights in the role of vicariance, founder events, population size and drift in the processes of population differentiation. We evaluate the degree of population genetic differentiation and

New insight into the 2011-2012 unrest and eruption of El Hierro Island (Canary Islands) based on integrated geophysical, geodetical and petrological data

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 2015
A shallow water eruption started on October 10, 2011, ~2 km south off the coast of El Hierro (Canary Islands, Spain). The eruption lasted about five months and ended by early March 2012.

El Hierro Island Global Geopark

open access: yes, 2023
This open access book explores El Hierro Island, which is geologically the youngest of the Canary Islands (Spain). Having registered its latest volcanic eruption in 2011-2012, it is an oceanic subtropical island with low population pressure and a largely unchanged natural landscape. Accordingly, a great geodiversity of volcanic morphologies and erosion

The ongoing volcanic eruption of El Hierro, Canary Islands [PDF]

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 2012
El Hierro, the youngest of the Canary Islands (Spain), is no stranger to hazards associated with volcanic activity or to efforts to minimize the effects of these hazards on local communities. As early as 1793, administrative records of El Hierro indicate that a swarm of earthquakes was felt by locals; fearing a greater volcanic catastrophe, the first ...

Severe Deoxygenation Event Caused by the 2011 Eruption of the Submarine Volcano Tagoro (El Hierro, Canary Islands)

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The shallow, near-shore submarine volcano Tagoro erupted in October 2011 at the Mar de las Calmas marine reserve, south of El Hierro island. The injection of lava into the ocean had its strongest episode during November 2011 and lasted until March 2012 ...

Landslides and the evolution of El Hierro in the Canary Islands

open access: yesMarine Geology, 2001
Seismic and sonar data have been used to evaluate the extent and characteristics of giant landslides on the flanks of El Hierro in the Canary Islands. As the youngest and most southwesterly of the Canary Islands, El Hierro has experienced rapid growth and destructive events in its 1.12 million year history.
