Primary Drivers of Dune Cover and Shoreline Dynamics: A Conceptual Model Based on the Iberian Atlantic Coast
(Elsevier, 2023-02-15)
[Abstract] Coastal dunes evolve in direct response to primary drivers, such as wind and waves, which can significantly influence the landscape. Here, we examine the effects of the wind and wave regimes on the vegetation ...
Leaf Wax Biomarkers of a High-Mountain Lake Area in Western Iberia—Implications for Environmental Reconstructions
(Frontiers, 2022-11-29)
[Abstract] Leaf wax n-alkane biomarkers are widely used to infer past vegetation dynamics and hydroclimate changes. The use of these compounds strongly relies on the characterization of modern plants. However, few studies ...
The Recent Volcanism of Flores Island (Azores), Part II: Stratigraphy and Eruptive History of the Comprida Volcanic System
(Elsevier, 2023-04-20)
[Abstract] The stratigraphy and eruptive history of a volcanic system are key to forecast the timing and style of future eruptions. Flores is a small volcanic island in the Azores Archipelago with no record of eruptions ...
Recent Global Warming Induces the Coupling of Dissimilar Long-Term Sedimentary Signatures in Two Adjacent Volcanic Lakes (Azores Archipelago, Portugal)
(Elsevier, 2023-01-30)
[Abstract] Paleoclimatological information derived from the study of lacustrine sedimentary records is not only biased by taphonomical processes but also by potential differences in the expression of climate variability ...
Towards a Digital Twin of the Earth System: Geo-Soft-CoRe, a Geoscientific Software & Code Repository
(Frontiers, 2022-04-26)
[Abstract] The immense advances in computer power achieved in the last decades have had a significant impact in Earth science, providing valuable research outputs that allow the simulation of complex natural processes and ...
Dinámica de los sistemas dunares costeros ante el Cambio Global: la necesidad de una gestión sostenible
(Asociación Española para el Estudio del Cuaternario (AEQUA), 2023-06-20)
[Resumen] El desarrollo y evolución de los sistemas arenosos costeros está gobernado por un frágil equilibrio dinámico entre la interacción de múltiples factores ambientales, y por ello estos sistemas naturales son altamente ...
The Vanishing and the Establishment of a New Ecosystem on an Oceanic Island: Anthropogenic Impacts With No Return Ticket
(Elsevier, 2022-03-31)
[Abstract] A multiproxy approach was applied to a sediment core retrieved from the deep crater Lake Funda, located in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean on Flores Island, Azores archipelago (Portugal). The purpose of ...
Climate Change Facilitated the Early Colonization of the Azores Archipelago During Medieval Times
(National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021-08-27)
[Abstract] Humans have made such dramatic and permanent changes to Earth's landscapes that much of it is now substantially and irreversibly altered from its preanthropogenic state. Remote islands, until recently isolated ...
Long-Term Hydroclimate Variability in the Sub-Tropical North Atlantic and Anthropogenic Impacts on Lake Ecosystems: A Case Study From Flores Island, the Azores
(Elsevier, 2022-06-01)
[Abstract] Human land use and climate change threaten ecosystems and natural resources, particularly on remote islands such as the Azores Archipelago in the North Atlantic. Since the official Portuguese settlement of the ...
The Timing of the Deglaciation in the Atlantic Iberian Mountains: Insights From the Stratigraphic Analysis of a Lake Sequence in Serra Da Estrela (Portugal)
(Wiley, 2023-02-07)
[Abstract] Understanding the environmental response to the last glacial termination in regions located in transitional climate zones such as the Atlantic Iberian mountains is crucial to estimate potential changes in regions ...
