  • Plan De Acción Insular Para La Sostenibilidad Energética
    ACTION PLAN FOR SUSTAINABLE ENERGY ISLAND GRAN CANARIA ISLAND (2012-2020) April 2012 ACTION PLAN FOR SUSTAINABLE ENERGY ISLAND Gran Canaria Island Executive summary European islands with fragile ecosystems and weak local economies suffer an extra pressure of island ecosystems, transportation systems, energy systems and water needs due to the activities related to tourism. The island authorities have realized the need for joining the common efforts in the global strategy of fighting against climate change and European initiatives to reduce CO2 emissions. Under the European directive to achieve the objective of 20-20-20 in 2020, the "Isle PACT: Pact of Islands project" is an initiative of a consortium of European islands that have committed to reduce CO2 emissions in order to meet EU objectives. The Canary archipelago has a high economic vulnerability due to the almost exclusive dependence on fossil primary energy sources and its high exposure to volatility of oil market. Facing this reality, over the past two decades the Regional Government has developed the regional energy plans in order to define the actions that aim at sustainable development of the sector and ensure future energy supply. Canary Islands have some unique peculiarities, reflected in various documents of agreement, both the state wide and European of Outermost Region. The singularities in the energy sector are also recognized. The remoteness of the continent and the fragmentation of the territory configurate the independent island power systems with small and weak grids that suppose an important technical restriction to maximization of Renewable Energy sources (RES) penetration, by its variable and intermittent nature.

Those that took place between 2009 and 2017 in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, their quantitative dimension and their intra-urban distribution are analysed in this study. This perspective allows an appreciation of their relationship with the unequal distribution of income and alien status, factors leading the investigations on the loss of property. In order to achieve this objective, the records of the Common Service of Notifications and Seizures have been used together with data of the Inland Revenue Ministry and Municipal Register, combining statistical and cartographical analysis with the purpose of finding associations Received: 07.06.2020 Accepted: 23.08.2020 Published: 19.11.2020 Published under the terms and conditions of an Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International license. and predictive factors. The study reveals that there is a great concentration of real estate deprivation in the central areas of the city and that the standards of distribution of dispossession are inversely related to the level of income of the urban districts and directly related to the foreign population.

  • Ensenadas Y Puertos De Gran Canaria
    G E O G R A F Í A 68 ENSENADAS Y PUERTOS DE GRAN CANARIA ENSENADAS Y PUERTOS DE GRAN CANARIA P O R ALFREDO MEDEROS MARTÍN y GABRIEL ESCRIBANO COBO RESUMEN En Gran Canaria, durante el período precedente a la conquista, el puer- to de Gando fue el punto habitual de desembarco. Simultáneamente, el puerto de Sardina, por su cercanía a la antigua capital aborigen de Gáldar, ocupó una segunda posición hasta inicios del siglo XVI. Durante la primera mitad del siglo XVI, la producción de azúcar dio protagonismo a los puertos de Agaete, Sardina y Melenara, pero con la progresiva crisis del azúcar canario por la competencia americana, duran- te la segunda mitad del siglo XVI, sólo se mantuvo el puerto de Melenara, por su proximidad a la ciudad de Telde. A partir del siglo XVII el comercio fue centralizado en el puerto de la Isleta de Las Palmas, mientras varios puertos locales intervinieron en el comercio interinsular, como Melenara, Gando, Juan Grande, Arguineguín, La Aldea, Agaete y Juncal, situación que no experimentó cambios hasta finales del siglo XIX. Desde la creación del gran puerto-refugio de la Luz en 1883, el tráfico maritimo se ha concentrado en su práctica totalidad alrededor de Las Palmas. Palabras clave: Islas Canarias. Gran Canaria. Puertos. Arqueología Subacuática. ABSTRACT In Gran Canaria, during the period prior to the conquest, the port of Gando was the customary disembarkation point. Simultaneously, the port Núm. 48 (2002) 365 2 ALFREDO MEDEROS MARTÍN Y GABRIEL ESCRIBANO COBO of Sardine, by its nearness to the ancient aboriginal capital of Gáldar, occupied a second position until beginnings of the 16th century.

La labor pesquera se realiza en aguas someras con barcos de remo y vela y artes muy Antonio Barrera Luján rudimentarios como el cordel o la nasa de fibra vegetal, la actividad está muy condicionada por el mercado debido a la poca comunicación, por lo que la mayoría de las capturas iban destinadas a la subsistencia y al trueque con los agricultores. Con la llegada de la nasa metálica a finales de los años 1940 y con la mejora de las perspectivas económicas y políticas mundiales, la pesca experimentó un aumento considerable de las capturas aunque las embarcaciones seguían siendo muy precarias. Ya en la década de los 1960 el ecosistema empezó a dar síntomas de sobreexplotación hasta los 100 m. En las décadas de 1970-90 con la aparición de la maquinilla y la construcción de las primeras infraestructuras en tierra el recurso continuó su suave pero paulatino descenso, hasta llegar a las última década del siglo XX y las primeras del XXI donde aparecen los grandes avances tecnológicos adaptados a barcos mayores con una mayor potencia y autonomía, aún así las capturas continúan su descenso, lo que se ve influenciado por una potente y bien equipada flota recreativa que hoy en día compite en capturas con la profesional.

The starting point of each chapter is the ethnographic study of one particular place. However, the authors are also concerned with wider regional, national, and global forces which shape and influence the local economies and societies under review. Although most of the essays focus on the European coastline, the book is intended to have implications for other geographical areas.
