Human-Derived Environmental Consequences for Three Sedimentary Systems of The Canary Islands (Spain) – a Study of Changes and Impacts: a Synthesis

This paper explores the relationship in three sedimentary systems of Canary Islands (Spain) between four major land change processes (resource extraction, urbanization, tourism and nature protection) six main environmental consequences (impacts on aeolian dynamics, changes sand landforms, disappearance landforms entire systems, vegetation, impacts socioeconomic system, use patterns). The results show that all have impacted study sites, except one them (La Graciosa island) producing systems. It should be noted described concerns different scales (from to landforms). All are analyzed separately, discussed detail relation presence these other parts world.
