A new Volcanic managEment Risk Database desIgn (VERDI): Application to El Hierro Island (Canary Islands) [PDF]
One of the most important issues in modem volcanology is the assessment of volcanic risk, which will depend - among other factors - on both the quantity and quality of the available data and an optimum storage mechanism.

Geological map at 1:12,500 scale of the western sector of El Hierro Island (Canary Archipelago)
El Hierro, the youngest and smallest island in the Canary archipelago, has active magmatism that poses a potential hazard, evidenced by historical volcanic events such as the 1600 Lomo Negro eruption and the 2011–2012 submarine eruption off its southern

Endless forms most wonderful: Four new cavernicolous planthopper species (Hemiptera, Fulgoromorpha, Cixiidae and Meenoplidae) from the Canary Islands [PDF]
The Canary Islands harbour a rich and diverse fauna of obligate subterranean arthropods (i.e. troglobionts). Among the insect taxa which have repeatedly undergone the evolutionary switch from life on the surface to underground environments are the ...

Ambient noise tomography of El Hierro island (Canary Islands)
El Hierro island is one of the most active islands in the Canary Islands from a volcanological point of view. This is the reason why the imaging of the internal crustal structure is of huge importance.

A retrospective study of the pre-eruptive unrest on El Hierro (Canary Islands): implications of seismicity and deformation in the short-term volcanic hazard assessment [PDF]
The correct identification and interpretation of unrest indicators is useful for forecasting volcanic eruptions, delivering early warnings, and understanding the changes occurring in a volcanic system prior to an eruption.

Abstract The abundance of Canthidermis sufflamen has increased worldwide, including around the Canary Islands, due to global ocean warming. The reproductive behaviour of this species was studied within a marine‐protected area (MPA) and its adjacent areas off the island of El Hierro (Canary Islands).
