On June 23rd at 16:00 UTC CoSV hosted its first webinar entitled “Physical-chemical perturbations and biological response over the two most recent eruptions registered in the Canary Islands: Tagoro submarine volcano (El Hierro) and Cumbre Vieja (La Palma)”. This webinar will be delivered by Dr. Eugenio Fraile-Nuez, a physical oceanographer at the Spanish Institute of Oceanography (IEO) from the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC).

Eugenio Fraile-Nuez, born in Gran Canaria (Spain) in 1976, graduated and PhD in Marine Sciences (Dr Physical Oceanography) at the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. His PhD obtained the extraordinary prize for the best doctoral thesis in the Experimental Sciences area. Since 2009 Dr Fraile is a Research at the Spanish Institute of Oceanography (IEO) at the Oceanographic Center of the Canary Islands, Tenerife. His research on Climate Change focuses on the variability of the thermohaline properties, heat and mass transport of large-scale ocean processes. Dr Fraile’s research has resulted in over 50 scientific papers in peer-reviewed journals, he has been involved in more than 30 national and international Research Projects and he has participated in numerous oceanographic cruises, accumulating over 1,500 days at sea on different national and international research vessels around the world. He was leading Vulcana projects during the last 10 years for the study of the variation of the physical-chemical, biological and geological properties of the submarine volcanoes of El Hierro and La Palma Islands. Moreover, Dr Fraile has been named as Advisor for the National Maritime Security Council of the Spanish Government in Submarine Vulcanological Risk and Physical Oceanography Advisor for the National Maritime Plan from the Fomento Ministry. Dr Fraile is a member of the Emergency Plan of the Volcanic Risk at the Canary Islands (PEVOLCA) and also from the National Cell of Information and Hazard Analysis and Threats (CIARA) from the Spanish Government.
