A Low Consumption Real Time Environmental Monitoring System for Smart Cities based on ZigBee Wireless Sensor Network

Nowadays, there is an increasing interest in wireless sensor networks (WSN) for environmental monitoring systems because it can be used to improve the quality of life and living conditions are becoming a major concern to people. This paper describes the design and development of a real time monitoring system based on ZigBee WSN characterized by a lower energy consumption, low cost, reduced dimensions and fast adaptation to the network tree topology. The developed system encompasses an optimized sensing process about environmental parameters, low rate transmission from sensor nodes to the gateway, packet parsing and data storing in a remote database and real time visualization through a web server.

Mio-pliocene crustaceans from the Canary Islands, Spain

[EN] There are few previous references to fossil crustaceans for the Neogene marine layers of the Canary Islands (Spain). The Mio-Pliocene marine sedimentary layers in the eastern islands (Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura and Lanzarote) were previously characterised by the presence of numerous fossil fauna, mainly anthozoans and molluscs, which correspond to an equatorial-typepalaeoclimate, warmer than the present climate. This Mio-Pliocene transition dated between 9.3 and 4.1 Ma. In this paper, 12 fossil crustacean taxa are identified and classified, including decapods and barnacles: Balanus concavus Bronn, 1831, Balanus spongicola Brown, 1827, Balanus perforatus Bruguière, 1789, Chenolobia testudinaria Linnè, 1767, Tetraclita cf. rubescens Darwin, 1854, Callianassa matsoni Rathbun, 1935, Callianassa sp., Upogebia sp, Eriphia aff. verrucosa (Forskal, 1775) , Maja sp., Scylla michelini Milne-Edwards, 1861 and Ocypode sp.

Aves marinas (Procellariidae) del Pleistoceno del yacimiento paleontológico de la Montaña de Timbaiba (Lanzarote, Islas Canarias)

[ES] Se describe la concurrencia de restos fósiles pertenecientes a dos taxones avianos de pardelas (Procellariidae) provenientes del yacimiento paleontológico de Montaña de Timbaiba, del Pleistoceno Medio, en la isla de Lanzarote. El conjunto está copado mayoritariamente por la especie extinta Puffinus holeae y se constata la presencia de la especie actual Calonectris diomedea. Se interpreta el yacimiento como un posible lugar de nidificación y cría de estas especies de pardelas.
