Deep-sea ecosystems of the North Atlantic Ocean: discovery, status, function an...
Allcock, A. Louise; Amon, Diva J.; Bridges, Amelia E. H.; Colaço, Ana; Escobar-Briones, Elva; Hilário, Ana; Howell, Kerry L.; Mestre, NéliaThe North Atlantic is an ocean basin with a diversity of deep-sea ecosystems. Here we provide a summary of the topography and oceanography of the North Atlantic including the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea, provide a brief overview of the history of scientific research therein, and review the current status of knowledge of each of 18 pelagic and benthic deep-sea ecosystems, with a particular focus on knowledg...
Microbial Associations of Abyssal Gorgonians and Anemones (>4,000 m Depth) at t...
Quintanilla, Elena; Rodrigues, Clara F; Henriques, Isabel; Hilário, AnaDeep coral-dominated communities play paramount roles in benthic environments by increasing their complexity and biodiversity. Coral-associated microbes are crucial to maintain fitness and homeostasis at the holobiont level. However, deep-sea coral biology and their associated microbiomes remain largely understudied, and less from remote and abyssal environments such as those in the Clarion-Clipperton Fracture ...
A blueprint for an inclusive, global deep-sea ocean decade field program
Howell, Kerry L.; Hilário, Ana; Allcock, A. Louise; Bailey, David M.; Baker, Maria; Clark, Malcolm R.; Colaço, Ana; Copley, Jon; Cordes, Erik E.The ocean plays a crucial role in the functioning of the Earth System and in the provision of vital goods and services. The United Nations (UN) declared 2021-2030 as the UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development. The Roadmap for the Ocean Decade aims to achieve six critical societal outcomes (SOs) by 2030, through the pursuit of four objectives (Os). It specifically recognizes the scarcity of biolo...
Learning difficulties in reading and writing: The perception of primary school ...
Baptista, Ana Catarina; Rodrigues, Susana; Hilário, Ana; Silva, Andreia; Leal, VerónicaReading and writing are considered basic and crucial tools for school learning. Teachers should be aware of the reading components, language structure, learning disabilities, and effective pedagogical assessment and intervention practices of children at risk of school failure. This study aims to know the perception of teachers of the first grade of the Algarve region about children with reading and writing diff...
Dificuldades de aprendizagem da leitura e da escrita: a perceção dos professore...
Baptista, Ana Catarina; Rodrigues, Susana; Hilário, Ana; Silva, Andreia; Leal, VerónicaA leitura e a escrita são consideradas ferramentas básicas e cruciais para a aprendizagem escolar. Os professores devem ter conhecimento das componentes da leitura, da estrutura da linguagem, das dificuldades de aprendizagem e de práticas efetivas de avaliação e de intervenção pedagógicas de crianças em risco de insucesso escolar. Com este estudo pretende-se conhecer a perceção dos professores do 1º Ciclo do En...
Environmental representativity in marine protected area networks over large and...
Stratoudakis, Yorgos; Hilário, Ana; Ribeiro, Cláudia; Abecasis, David; Gonçalves, Emanuel J.; Andrade, Francisco; Carreira, Gilberto P.Converting assemblages of marine protected areas (MPAs) into functional MPA networks requires political will, multidisciplinary information, coordinated action and time. We developed a new framework to assist planning environmental representativity in a network across the marine space of Portugal, responding to a political commitment to protect 14% of its area by 2020. An aggregate conservation value was estima...

Paramytha ossicola sp. nov. (Polychaeta, Ampharetidae) from mammal bones: Repro...
Queirós, José Pedro; Ravara, Ascensão; Eilertsen, Mari H.; Kongsrud, Jon A.; Hilário, AnaSunken whale carcasses, known as “whale falls”, deliver large, but relatively ephemeral pulses of organic material to the seafloor and serve as habitat for unique assemblages of deep-sea fauna that include generalist-scavenging species, chemosynthetic fauna and bone-specialist species. Despite the great deal of interest that fauna associated with whale falls have attracted, very little is known about this fauna...
Um bom osso para viver: co-ocorrência de espécies de poliquetas da família Dorv...
Guedes, Inês Ferreira; Ravara, Ascensão; Hilário, AnaAs carcaças de baleia que chegam ao fundo do oceano representam grandes quantidades de matéria orgânica que servem de base a um ecossistema habitado por comunidades complexas de fauna especializada. Estudos sobre este tipo de habitat e as comunidades a ele associadas foram até recentemente restritos ao Oceano Pacífico, apesar de ser reconhecida a necessidade de estudar estes habitats noutras bacias oceânicas.
