Lava penetrating water: Submarine lava flows around the coasts of Pico Island, Azores
[1] Bathymetry data collected with a multibeam echo sounder around Pico Island, Azores (Portugal), reveal a remarkable series of lava flows on the island’s shelf with a variety of pristine structures that suggest how lava behaves on entering water. Many flows are dendritic in plan view, some with channels and tumuli. Dendritic geometries are interpreted to arise from flow fronts repeatedly arre...
متن کاملArthropod community structure in pastures of an island archipelago (Azores): looking for local-regional species richness patterns at fine-scales.
The arthropod species richness of pastures in three Azorean islands was used to examine the relationship between local and regional species richness over two years. Two groups of arthropods, spiders and sucking insects, representing two functionally different but common groups of pasture invertebrates were investigated. The local-regional species richness relationship was assessed over relative...
متن کاملVegetation Mapping of “pico Da Dara” Natural Reserve (s. Miguel Island, Azores Islands, Portugal) Using Ikonos Satellite Imagery
S. Miguel Island's vascular plant flora (Archipelago of the Azores,Portugal) consists of approximately 1000 taxa and is largely dominated bynon-indigenous taxa. The rapid spread of some very aggressive invasivealien species, such as Pittosporum undulatum Vent. and Clethra arboreaAiton, is causing serious damages to this ecosystem. This paper assessedthe effectiveness of High...
متن کاملLandslides density map of S. Miguel Island, Azores archipelago
The Azores archipelago is located in the Atlantic Ocean and is composed of nine volcanic islands. S. Miguel, the largest one, is formed by three active, E-W trending, trachytic central volcanoes with caldera (Sete Cidades, Fogo and Furnas). Chains of basaltic cinder cones link those major volcanic structures. An inactive trachytic central volcano (Povoação) and an old basaltic volcanic complex ...
متن کاملPerformance Characterization of Coatings on Treated-wood
Coating performance is greatly influenced by the properties of the wood substrate. This study was focused on evaluating the performance of coatings on both preservative- and thermally-treated wood. A number of commercially formulated semi-transparent stains Alkyd, Alkyd-Acrylic and PU were applied on four different types of preservative treated and heat-treated wood and their performances were ...
