Research in Macaronesia has led to substantial advances in ecology, evolution and
conservation biology. We review the scientific developments achieved in this region, and …

Volcano slope instability manifests in many forms, ranging from steady state to punctuated
movement, or shallow erosion to deep-seated spreading. The interplay of gravity, magmatic …

This review focuses on the recognition of volcanic ash occurrences in marine sediment
cores and on using their appearance and properties to deduce their origin. Widespread …

Tenerife, one of the active oceanic island volcanoes in the Canary Islands, located in the
eastern Atlantic Ocean off northwest Africa, is the second largest intraplate oceanic island …

This paper reviews the evidence for onshore sedimentary imprints of tsunami inundation
known from the geological record of the Atlantic basin. The central aim of the paper is to offer …

Tsunami deposits are the primary source of information on (past) large tsunami events and
thereby are crucial for accurate hazard assessments. Tsunami deposits studies have …

Abstract Volcanic activity on Tenerife Island is extremely diverse. Three radial rift zones are
characterized by cinder cones from basaltic fissure eruptions. A triple junction in central …

Island biogeography is the study of the distribution and dynamics of species in island
environments. Due to their isolation from more widespread continental species, islands are …

For more than 150 years, geologic characteristics claimed to be evidence for pre-
Pleistocene glaciations have been debated. Advancements in recent decades, in …

Tsunami, as a secondary hazard, can be triggered by tectonic earthquakes with its epicenter
in the ocean floor, submarine volcanic eruptions, submarine landslides, meteor, or bomb at …
