Mascarene Islands
The Mascarene Islands (or Mascarenhas Archipelago) is a group of islands in the Indian Ocean east of Madagascar consisting of Mauritius, Réunion and Rodrigues. The collective title is derived from the Portuguese navigator Pedro Mascarenhas, who first visited them in the early sixteenth century. The islands share a common geologic origin in the volcanism of the Réunion hotspot beneath the Mascarene Plateau and form a distinct ecoregion with a unique flora and fauna.
Location and description
The archipelago comprises three large islands, Mauritius, Réunion, and Rodrigues, plus a number of volcanic remnants in the tropics of the southwestern Indian Ocean, generally between 700 and 1500 kilometres east of Madagascar. The terrain includes a variety of reefs, atolls, and small islands. They present various topographical and edaphic regions. On the largest islands these gave rise to unusual biodiversity. The climate is oceanic and tropical.

Africa's Strange French/Indian Colonies (Mauritius and Réunion)
What are the strange French/Indian derived colonies of Africa, such as Mauritius, Reunion and Seychelles, how did they come into being and who are the people who live in these bizarrely isolated, yet incredibly diverse assortment of islands in the middle of the Indian Ocean? In today's video we will be discussing the history, cultures, peoples, religions and languages of the former French colonies of the Indian Ocean, which have since evolved into the diverse countries of Mauritius and Seychelles, and the French territory of Reunion. These islands are a cosmopolitan mix of European, African, Indian, Austronesian, Chinese and Arab cultures, which have fused into one distinct regional identity over many hundreds of years, distinguishing themselves from any other region of Africa (or elsewh...

Cyclone Habana Weakens , Possible Threat to the Mascarene Islands
Cyclone Habana has weakened slightly but is still a dangerous category three equivalent storm as it continues its journey across the South Indian Ocean Model guidance suggests that Habana will drop below cyclone status before getting in range of the Mascarene Island of Rogrigues on the next few days. Heavy rain and some winds are possible as Habana will move south of Rodrigues and could bring impacts to Mauritius and Reunion in the long term. There is no CDPS for Habana at this time but as Habana gets closer to the Mascarene Islands we may see a CDPS become a factor.

The terrain includes a variety of reefs, atolls, and small islands. They present various topographical and edaphic regions. On the largest islands these gave rise to unusual biodiversity. The climate is oceanic and tropical.
Geology[edit]
Piton de la Fournaise
The islands are volcanic in origin; Saya de Malha (35 mya) was the first of the Mascarene islands to rise out of the Indian Ocean due to the Réunion hotspot, followed by Nazareth Bank (some 2,000 years later), Soudan Bank and Cargados Carajos. The youngest islands to form were Mauritius (7–10 mya), the oldest of the existing islands, created along with the undersea Rodrigues ridge. The islands of Rodrigues and Réunion were created in the last two million years. Réunion is the largest of the islands (2,500 km2), followed by Mauritius (1,900 km2) and Rodrigues (110 km2). Eventually Saya de Malha, Nazareth and Soudan were completely submerged, Cargados Carajos remaining as a coral atoll.[1] The Réunion hotspot was beginning to cool and Rodrigues came out as a tiny island. Had erosion not taken place, Cargados Carajos would have been a large volcanic island, and the Mascarenes would have been an archipelago of seven or more (counting Saya De Malha, Nazareth and Soudan) large, populated islands, rather than the three (Mauritius, Reunion, Rodrigues) that remain today.
Réunion is home to the highest peaks in the Mascarenes, the shield volcanoes Piton des Neiges (3,069 m) and Piton de la Fournaise (2,525 m). Piton de la Fournaise, on the southeastern corner of Réunion, is one of the most active volcanoes in the world, erupting last on 2 January 2010. Piton de la Petite Rivière Noire (828 m) is the highest peak on Mauritius, and the gentle hills of Rodrigues rise to only 390 m.
The Mascarene Plateau is an undersea plateau that extends approximately 2000 km, from the Seychelles to Réunion. The plateau covers an area of over 115,000 km2 of shallow water, with depths ranging from 8 to 150 meters, plunging to 4000 m to the abyssal plain at its edges. The southern part of the plateau, including the Saya de Malha Bank, Nazareth Bank, Soudan Banks and Cargados Carajos Shoals (Saint Brandon) (then one large island), was formed by the Réunion hotspot. These were once volcanic islands, much like Mauritius and Réunion, which have now sunk or eroded to below sea level or, in the case of the Cargados Carajos, to low coral islands. The Saya de Malha Bank formed 35 million years ago, and the Nazareth Bank and the Cargados Carajos shoals after that. Limestone banks found on the plateau are the remnants of coral reefs, indicating that the plateau was a succession of islands. Some of the banks may have been islands as recently as 18,000–6,000 years ago, when sea levels were as much as 130 meters lower during the most recent ice age.
Flora[edit]
Foetidia mauritiana
Phyllanthus tenellus (Mascarenes leafflower)
The habitats of the islands differ in size, topography, age, and in proximity to the nearest major land mass, namely (Madagascar). As is common among remote islands, the Mascarene fauna and flora display a high degree of endemism; they include over a thousand species of which several hundred are endemic. There also are many introduced species but until Europeans first settled the islands in the sixteenth century the Mascarenes are not known to have harboured any human populations, so much of the island's wildlife, which would have gone extinct much earlier had any native people lived there, was still flourishing during the early days of settlement.

What are the strange French/Indian derived colonies of Africa, such as Mauritius, Reunion and Seychelles, how did they come into being and who are the people who live in these bizarrely isolated, yet incredibly diverse assortment of islands in the middle of the Indian Ocean?
In today's video we will be discussing the history, cultures, peoples, religions and languages of the former French colonies of the Indian Ocean, which have since evolved into the diverse countries of Mauritius and Seychelles, and the French territory of Reunion. These islands are a cosmopolitan mix of European, African, Indian, Austronesian, Chinese and Arab cultures, which have fused into one distinct regional identity over many hundreds of years, distinguishing themselves from any other region of Africa (or elsewhere on Earth). Thanks for watching!

https://wn.com/Africa's_Strange_French_Indian_Colonies_(Mauritius_And_Réunion)
What are the strange French/Indian derived colonies of Africa, such as Mauritius, Reunion and Seychelles, how did they come into being and who are the people who live in these bizarrely isolated, yet incredibly diverse assortment of islands in the middle of the Indian Ocean?
In today's video we will be discussing the history, cultures, peoples, religions and languages of the former French colonies of the Indian Ocean, which have since evolved into the diverse countries of Mauritius and Seychelles, and the French territory of Reunion. These islands are a cosmopolitan mix of European, African, Indian, Austronesian, Chinese and Arab cultures, which have fused into one distinct regional identity over many hundreds of years, distinguishing themselves from any other region of Africa (or elsewhere on Earth). Thanks for watching!

Cyclone Habana has weakened slightly but is still a dangerous category three equivalent storm as it continues its journey across the South Indian Ocean
Model guidance suggests that Habana will drop below cyclone status before getting in range of the Mascarene Island of Rogrigues on the next few days. Heavy rain and some winds are possible as Habana will move south of Rodrigues and could bring impacts to Mauritius and Reunion in the long term.
There is no CDPS for Habana at this time but as Habana gets closer to the Mascarene Islands we may see a CDPS become a factor.

The Mascarene Islands (or Mascarenhas Archipelago) is a group of islands in the Indian Ocean east of Madagascar consisting of Mauritius, Réunion and Rodrigues. The collective title is derived from the Portuguese navigator Pedro Mascarenhas, who first visited them in the early sixteenth century. The islands share a common geologic origin in the volcanism of the Réunion hotspot beneath the Mascarene Plateau and form a distinct ecoregion with a unique flora and fauna.
travel, travel destination, travel advice, skyline, famous buildings, street life The archipelago comprises three large islands, Mauritius, Réunion, and Rodrigues, plus a number of volcanic remnants in the tropics of the southwestern Indian Ocean, generally between 700 and 1500 kilometres east of Madagascar. The terrain includes a variety of reefs, atolls, and small islands. They present various topographical and edaphic regions. On the largest islands these gave rise to unusual biodiversity. The climate is oceanic and tropical.
Geology[edit]
Piton de la Fournaise
The islands are volcanic in origin; Saya de Malha (35 mya) was the first of the Mascarene islands to rise out of the Indian Ocean due to the Réunion hotspot, followed by Nazareth Bank (some 2,000 years later), Soudan Bank and Cargados Carajos. The youngest islands to form were Mauritius (7–10 mya), the oldest of the existing islands, created along with the undersea Rodrigues ridge. The islands of Rodrigues and Réunion were created in the last two million years. Réunion is the largest of the islands (2,500 km2), followed by Mauritius (1,900 km2) and Rodrigues (110 km2). Eventually Saya de Malha, Nazareth and Soudan were completely submerged, Cargados Carajos remaining as a coral atoll.[1] The Réunion hotspot was beginning to cool and Rodrigues came out as a tiny island. Had erosion not taken place, Cargados Carajos would have been a large volcanic island, and the Mascarenes would have been an archipelago of seven or more (counting Saya De Malha, Nazareth and Soudan) large, populated islands, rather than the three (Mauritius, Reunion, Rodrigues) that remain today.
Réunion is home to the highest peaks in the Mascarenes, the shield volcanoes Piton des Neiges (3,069 m) and Piton de la Fournaise (2,525 m). Piton de la Fournaise, on the southeastern corner of Réunion, is one of the most active volcanoes in the world, erupting last on 2 January 2010. Piton de la Petite Rivière Noire (828 m) is the highest peak on Mauritius, and the gentle hills of Rodrigues rise to only 390 m.
The Mascarene Plateau is an undersea plateau that extends approximately 2000 km, from the Seychelles to Réunion. The plateau covers an area of over 115,000 km2 of shallow water, with depths ranging from 8 to 150 meters, plunging to 4000 m to the abyssal plain at its edges. The southern part of the plateau, including the Saya de Malha Bank, Nazareth Bank, Soudan Banks and Cargados Carajos Shoals (Saint Brandon) (then one large island), was formed by the Réunion hotspot. These were once volcanic islands, much like Mauritius and Réunion, which have now sunk or eroded to below sea level or, in the case of the Cargados Carajos, to low coral islands. The Saya de Malha Bank formed 35 million years ago, and the Nazareth Bank and the Cargados Carajos shoals after that. Limestone banks found on the plateau are the remnants of coral reefs, indicating that the plateau was a succession of islands. Some of the banks may have been islands as recently as 18,000–6,000 years ago, when sea levels were as much as 130 meters lower during the most recent ice age.
Flora[edit]
Foetidia mauritiana
Phyllanthus tenellus (Mascarenes leafflower)
The habitats of the islands differ in size, topography, age, and in proximity to the nearest major land mass, namely (Madagascar). As is common among remote islands, the Mascarene fauna and flora display a high degree of endemism; they include over a thousand species of which several hundred are endemic. There also are many introduced species but until Europeans first settled the islands in the sixteenth century the Mascarenes are not known to have harboured any human populations, so much of the island's wildlife, which would have gone extinct much earlier had any native people lived there, was still flourishing during the early days of settlement.

Oggi andremo alla scoperta delle tristi vicende di estinzione delle specie che abitavano le isole Mascarene, lo stesso arcipelago in cui visse il famoso dodo. Un piccolo viaggio per scoprire quanto sia fragile la biodiversità che ci circonda e quanta importanza abbia la sua conservazione per il futuro del pianeta.
