Pharmaceutical removal through granular sludge systems: performance, operationa...
Costa, M.; Mesquita, D. P.; Ferreira, Eugénio C.; Quintelas, Cristina Maria CatalãoPharmaceuticals may end up in the environment through untreated wastewater, improper disposal of unused and expired pharmaceutical formulations, or effluents from manufacturing facilities. Many reports focusing on the occurrence of pharmaceuticals in the environment have been published in recent years. This environmental problem is also an issue of special concern for the European Union, which recommends the mo...
5-years after-Life Berlengas: Conservation efforts and monitoring in Berlengas ...
Oliveira, Nuno; Almeida, Ana; Alonso, Hany; Bouça, Alexandra; Costa, M.; Crisóstomo, Paulo; Leandro, Sergio Miguel; Mendes, R. N.; Morais, L.O pós-LIFE Berlengas teve início em 2019. Neste relatório são apresentadas as tarefas realizadas durante 2019-2024, nomeadamente, monitorização e conservação de aves marinhas, biossegurança, controlo de plantas invasoras e monitorização da flora. Os resultados alcançados em termos de investigação, voluntariado, apoio, visitação e ações de sensibilização são também apresentados. A informação recolhida anteriorme...
Validation of a methodology for post-construction Energy Yield Assessment of an...
Costa, M.; Rocha, T.; Mendonça, J.; Pilão, R.; Pinto, P.The uncertainty associated with the prospective Energy Yield Assessment (EYA) of a wind farm may be reduced by re estimating the energy yield after it enters normal operation. This study aims to validate a simple methodology for conducting post-construction EYA of an operational wind farm. The proposed methodology derives a linear relationship between a historical source of wind speed data and the observed wind...
Observação dos processos diagenéticos em dentes de saurópodes: métodos geoquími...
da Silva, R.; Camilo, B.; Balbino, A.; Barrulas, P.; Costa, M.; Ribeiro, C.A ciência encontra-se atualmente, numa fase de forte evolução e expansão. Isto muito devido ao desenvolvimento exponencial das tecnologias e da explosão de conhecimento e à facilidade na partilha de informação à escala global. A Paleontologia não é exceção e, desde o século passado que têm vindo a mostrar uma forte ligação multidisciplinar com outras áreas científicas, com as quais prosperam cada vez mais, como...

Predictive accuracy of time series models applied to economic data: the Europea...
Lima, S.; Gonçalves, A. Manuela; Costa, M.Modeling and accurately forecasting trend and seasonal patterns of a time series is a crucial activity in economics. The main propose of this study is to evaluate and compare the performance of three traditional forecasting methods, namely the ARIMA models and their extensions, the classical decomposition time series associated with multiple linear regression models with correlated errors, and the Holt–Winters ...
A next-generation liquid xenon observatory for dark matter and neutrino physics
Aalbers, J.; AbdusSalam, S. S.; Abe, K.; Aerne, V.; Agostini, F.; Ahmed Maouloud, S.; Akerib, D. S.; Akimov, D. Y.; Akshat, J.; Al Musalhi, A. K.The nature of dark matter and properties of neutrinos are among the most pressing issues in contemporary particle physics. The dual-phase xenon timeprojection chamber is the leading technology to cover the available parameter space for weakly interacting massive particles, while featuring extensive sensitivity to many alternative dark matter candidates. These detectors can also study neutrinos through neutrinol...
Powered smart textile-based exoskeleton for human support movement
Ferreira, C.; Fertuzinhos, A.; Silva, R.; Ramalho, M.; Vale, B.; Silva, J.; Costa, L.; Oliveira, C.; Ramôa, A.; Aguiar, F.; Pilastri, A.; Matta, A.Industrial environments require people’s physical efforts related to excessive force, poor posture, and repetitive tasks that increase the risk of developing musculoskeletal diseases. Due to the high prevalence of postural complaints and consequent global health burdens, a significant demand has been conducted to build and implement powered lower and upper limb devices for human enhancement, considering the wor...
Observation of Higgs Boson Decay to Bottom Quarks
Sirunyan, A. M.; Tumasyan, A.; Adam, W.; Ambrogi, F.; Asilar, E.; Bergauer, T.; Brandstetter, J.; Dragicevic, M.; Erö, J.; Escalante Del Valle, A.Made available in DSpace on 2022-04-28T19:11:08Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2018-09-17; The observation of the standard model (SM) Higgs boson decay to a pair of bottom quarks is presented. The main contribution to this result is from processes in which Higgs bosons are produced in association with a W or Z boson (VH), and are searched for in final states including 0, 1, or 2 charged lepto...
