	Marchena Island The island's name, Marchena Island (Spanish: ''Isla Marchena''), comes from the Spanish monk, Frey Antonio de Marchena. It has an area of 130 km2 and a maximum altitude of 343 meters. The island is not set up for visitors, although the surrounding water is used by aquatic divers on organised tours. People generally see the island as they sail around the northern part of Isabela on the way to Tower Island. Marchena is Tower Island's nearest neighbor, about 45 miles due west. Like many of the Galápagos volcanos, Marchena has a caldera. Marchena's caldera is roughly elliptical and measures , within the range of caldera sizes of the large western volcanoes.

Due to the Earth's axial tilt, the course of a year sees the passing of the seasons, marked by change in weather, the hours of daylight, and, consequently, vegetation and soil fertility. In temperate and subpolar climate, subpolar regions around the planet, four seasons are generally recognized: spring (season), spring, summer, autumn and winter. In tropics, tropical and subtropics, subtropical regions, several geographical sectors do not present defined seasons; but in the tropics#Seasons and climate, seasonal tropics, the annual wet season, wet and dry seasons are recognized and tracked. A calendar year is an approximation of the number of days of the Earth's orbital period, as counted in a given calendar. The Gregorian calendar, or modern calendar, presents its calendar year to be either a common year of 365 days or a leap year of 366 days, a ...
