Little migrants: assessment of stranded loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta) so...
Corona, Luana Santos; Galatoulas, Adam; Nicolau, Lídia; Pereira, Andreia F. T.; Sá, Sara F.; Lopes da Cunha, Regina; Marçalo, Ana; Castilho, RitaMaritime activities affect the migratory routes of marine organisms, including loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta). The coastal waters of mainland Portugal lie along these routes, providing foraging grounds but lacking nesting beaches, making them ideal for studying turtle migration. This study presents the first assessment of the natal origins of loggerheads in the North-East Atlantic. We analysed the genetic...
Variability of prey preferences and uptake of anthropogenic particles by juveni...
Müller, Carolin; Erzini, Karim; Dudeck, Tim; Cruz, Joana; Corona, Luana Santos; Abrunhosa, Felipe; Afonso, Carlos; Mateus, Miguel Ângelo FrancoMarine plastic litter, originating from land-based sources, enters the marine environment by passing through coastal ecosystems such as lagoons and estuaries. As early life history stages (ELHS) of many commercially important fish species rely on these transitional areas as nursery grounds, we hypothesized that they encounter a spatial gradient of habitat quality and pollution from inner to outer parts of their...
Shifts in the European shag diet along the Portuguese coast
Corona, Luana SantosA galheta, ou corvo-marinho-de-crista Gulosus aristotelis é uma ave marinha residente em Portugal Continental, especialmente em habitats costeiros. Apesar de ser uma espécie com uma ampla distribuição na Europa, a menor densidade populacional em Portugal torna-a classificada como espécie vulnerável a nível nacional. O núcleo reprodutor mais importante localiza-se no Arquipélago das Berlengas, onde se estima que...
