Cláusula contratual de contrato-promessa que estipula a renúncia de qualquer do...
Loureiro, CarlosAnotação a acórdão do STJ sobre a natureza da invalidade resultante do incumprimento das formalidades previstas no artigo 410.º, n.º 3, do Código Civil e sobre a possibilidade de renúncia à invocação da preterição daquelas formalidades. O autor acompanha a interpretação da norma seguida no acórdão, mas critica a sua aplicação à decisão do caso concreto.
A Near-Real-Time Operational Live Fuel Moisture Content (LFMC) Product to Suppo...
Benali, Akli; Baldassarre, Giuseppe; Loureiro, Carlos; Briquemont, Florian; Fernandes, Paulo M.; Rossa, Carlos; Figueira, RuiLive fuel moisture content (LFMC) significantly influences fire activity and behavior over different spatial and temporal scales. The ability to estimate LFMC is important to improve our capability to predict when and where large wildfires may occur. Currently, there is a gap in providing reliable near-real-time LFMC estimates which can contribute to better operational decision-making. The objective of this wor...
Combining optical and SAR satellite data to monitor coastline changes in the Bl...
Jiang, Dalin; Marino, Armando; Ionescu, Maria; Gvilava, Mamuka; Savaneli, Zura; Loureiro, Carlos; Spyrakos, Evangelos; Tyler, Andrew; Stanica, AdrianThe coastal environments of the Black Sea are of high ecological and socio-economic importance. Understanding changes along this extensive and complex coastline can help us comprehend the pressures from nature, society, and extreme events, providing valuable insights for more effective management and the prevention of future adverse changes. Current methods for monitoring coastal dynamics rely on the accurate e...
Distinct shoreline behaviour along storm‐dominated and geologically controlled ...
Kümmerer, Vincent; Ferreira, Óscar; Loureiro, CarlosContemporary shoreline change is driven by a complex combination of factors, and as such is often highly variable along the coast. While differences in beach morphology can explain some of the variability in shoreline change, the geological constraints imposed by coastal geology are often overlooked. This work examines the influence of foreshore configurations with varying degrees of non-dynamic geological cont...
Development of topo-bathymetric continuum profiles for coastal barriers with gl...
Fanti, Valeria; Loureiro, Carlos; Ferreira, ÓscarCoastal barriers are dynamic and vulnerable coastal environments exposed to storms and rising sea levels, requiring a thorough understanding of their physical and geomorphological characteristics. Despite this, high-resolution topo-bathymetric data are not openly available for most of the world's coastal areas, preventing accurate estimation of the exposure to storms and associated risks. Global models of topog...
Improved estimates of extreme wave conditions in coastal areas from calibrated ...
Fanti, Valeria; Ferreira, Oscar; Kümmerer, Vincent; Loureiro, CarlosThe analysis of extreme wave conditions is crucial for understanding and mitigating coastal hazards. As global wave reanalyses allow to extend the evaluation of wave conditions to periods and locations not covered by in-situ measurements, their direct use is common. However, in coastal areas, the accuracy of global reanalyses is lower, particularly for extreme waves. Here we compare two leading global wave rean...
Viability of using high amounts of steel slag aggregates to improve the circula...
Moura, Caroline; Nascimento, Lucas; Loureiro, Carlos; Rodrigues, Mafalda; Oliveira, Joel R. M.; Silva, Hugo M. R. D.Steel slag is a byproduct generated as waste during the steelmaking process and can be considered a cost‐effective and environmentally acceptable alternative to replace natural aggre-gates. Using steel slag aggregates (SSA) to produce asphalt mixtures promotes sustainability and circular economy principles by using an industrial byproduct as a raw material. Thus, this work mainly aims to design more sustainable...
Hypersensitivity Reactions to Vaccines: Current Evidence and Standards for SARS...
Carvalho, Jóni Costa; Cunha, Francisca; Coutinho, Iolanda Alen; Loureiro, Carlos; Faria, Emília; Bom, Ana TodoThe first reports of hypersensitivity reactions following the rollout of COVID-19 vaccination programs have raised public concern. Given the recent availability and novel mechanisms of COVID-19 vaccines, there is limited data on possible hypersensitivity reactions. Although it seems rare, the incidence of anaphylaxis for approved COVID-19 vaccines has been suggested as being higher when compared to previous vac...
O conceito de violência no âmbito do procedimento cautelar de restituição provi...
Loureiro, CarlosO possuidor dispõe de um conjunto diversificado de meios judiciais de tutela da sua posse. Esta tutela é reforçada perante um esbulho realizado com violência: ao arsenal de meios de defesa comuns acrescenta-se o procedimento cautelar nominado de restituição provisória da posse, decretado sem contraditório prévio. Constitui pressuposto específico deste procedimento a violência, conceito cujo significado, para es...
The historical reconstruction of the 1755 earthquake and tsunami in downtown Li...
Santos, Angela; Correia, Mariana; Loureiro, Carlos; Fernandes, Paulo; Marques da Costa, NunoThe historical accounts of the 1755 earthquake and tsunami in Lisbon are quite vast providing a general overview of the disaster in the city. However, the details remain unknown. Therefore, the objective of this research is to understand and reconstruct the impact of the 1755 event (earthquake, tsunami, and fire) in downtown Lisbon. Thus, the historical data has been compiled and analyzed, to complement tsunami...
