Relevancia del manejo agrícola de olivares mediterráneos intensivos en el contr...
Rodríguez Sousa, Antonio Alberto; Prats, Sérgio A.; Brígido, Clarisse; Muñoz-Rojas, JoséLos olivares configuran paisajes culturales de importancia en la Península Ibérica y el Mediterráneo. Una estrategia para garantizar su rentabilidad económica corresponde a la intensificación agrícola (i.e. adición de insumos químicos y riego, incremento de la densidad de plantación). Dicha intensificación resulta en externalidades ambientales evidenciadas (i.e. pérdida de biodiversidad y contaminación difusa)....
What key factors affect soil biodiversity in the olive groves of Alentejo (Port...
Brígido, Clarisse; Rodríguez Sousa, Antonio Alberto; Prats, Sérgio A.; Muñoz-Rojas, JoséRural landscapes in Alentejo (S Portugal) have changed greatly along the past 15 years, largely due to the expansion and intensification of olive groves, and lately also of almond groves. This process of intensification (i.e., increase in olive tree density), if managed inadequately, may compromise the quality, biodiversity, habitat and performance of soils. It is, therefore, essential to foster and enact the s...
Carbon balance in olive groves of Alentejo under different land management prac...
Rodríguez Sousa, Antonio Alberto; Muñoz-Rojas, José; Brígido, Clarisse; Garcia-Ruiz, R.; Liétor, J.; Prats, Sérgio A.Rural landscapes in Alentejo (Portugal) have changed greatly during the last 15 years, largely due to the expansion and technological intensification of olive groves. The application of agrochemicals (fertilizers and herbicides) along with crop intensification (increasing tree density) likely affect the C balance of these groves. Hereby we assess the C contents of different farming system components and flows a...
Surface and subsurface flow in eucalyptus plantations in north-central Portugal
Boulet, Anne-K.; Prats, Sérgio A.; Malvar, Maruxa C.; González-Pelayo, Oscar; Coelho, Celeste O. A.; Ferreira, Antonio J. D.; Keizer, Jan J.In the Baixo Vouga region of north-central Portugal, forests occupy half of the territory, of which two thirds are Eucalypts plantations. The hydrological implications of this large-scale introduction of eucalypt are unknown and the aim of this exploratory study, realized in the Caramulo Mountains, was to describe overland flow (OLF), subsurface flow (SSF) and stream flow (Q) in a catchment dominated by Eucalyp...
