Monitoring invasive macroalgae in southern Portugal: drivers and citizen scienc...
Jiménez, Javier; Simes, Dina; Abecasis, Ana Rita Costa; Relvas, Paulo; Garel, Erwan; Martins, Paula Ventura; Santos, RuiUnder certain environmental and oceanographic conditions, macroalgae can overgrow and accumulate in massive quantities on beaches, causing serious ecological and economic impacts. To address this problem, a citizen science monitoring platform was created to determine the spatial and temporal distribution of macroalgae accumulations along the beaches of Algarve in southern Portugal, with the aim to assess the ex...
Editorial: the thyroid and Covid-19, volume II
Jiménez, Javier; Campinho, Marco António; Nogueira, Celia Regina; Sgarbi, JoseCoronaviruses are enveloped RNA viruses of wide distribution in humans associated with mild respiratory disease. By contrast, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) is one of those coronaviruses that can cause fatal illness. In late December 2019, an outburst of pneumonia of unknown cause in Wuhan, China, was identified as the early stage of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic outbreak...
The impact of egg thermal regimes on the response to food deprivation and refee...
Mateus, Ana; Costa, Rita; Jiménez, Javier; Sadoul, Bastien; Bégout, Marie Laure; Cousin, Xavier; Canario, Adelino; Power, DeborahFish are ectotherms and this means they are highly vulnerable to changes in ambient temperature, particularly during early developmental stages when temperature can induce persistent effects on phenotypic traits. In this study, the effect of egg incubation temperature on the response of juvenile European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) to food deprivation and recovery after refeeding was assessed. Eggs were inc...
