Middle Jurassic dinosaur footprints from the Serras de Aire and Candeeiros [Res...
Lopes, Luis; Sá, Artur Abreu; Carvalho, Jorge; Mergulhão, Lia; Cachão, Mário; Galopim de Carvalho, António MarcosABSTRACT: The Dinosaur Footprints Natural Monument of Ourém/Torres Novas, known as Galinha quarry, and the Vale de Meios quarry, are located in the Serras de Aire e Candeeiros Nature Park (Central Portugal). They are two geosites, duly geoconserved, of recognized international scientific value, due to its exceptionality regarding to the age, size, and quality of preservation of ichnites. Both quarries are locat...

Machado, Susana; Mergulhão, Lia; Pereira, Bruno Claro; Pereira, Pedro; Carvalho, Jorge; Anacleto, José António; Carvalho, Carlos Neto de; Belo, JoãoThe Cabeço da Ladeira paleontological site in central Portugal became known as the “Jurassic Beach”. Formerly an active quarry, the site was protected in order to preserve the large exposures of a Middle Jurassic (early? Bajocian) carbonate tidal flat with an outstanding fossil record. This multidisciplinary paleontological work involving experts from several national and international research and geoconservat...

Carvalho, Jorge; Meira, João; Marques, Célia; Machado, Susana; Mergulhão, Lia; Cancela, JorgeABSTRACT: Cabeça Veada is the name of a relatively small exploitation cluster for ornamental limestones occupying an area of 98 ha in the Portuguese Natural Park of Serra de Aire e Candeeiros, which is also a Natura 2000 Network protected area. Supported by comprehensive geological, mining and environmental studies, a specific methodology was developed in order to address the compatibility between the long term...

Klompmaker, Adiel; Moita, José António; Pereira, Pedro; Belo, João; Neto de Carvalho, Carlos; Pereira, Bruno; Baucon, Andrea; Machado, SusanaABSTRACT: Ichnology is a powerful tool for understanding the evolutionary paths of animal clades, through the paleobiology of behavior preserved in Lagerstätten such as the Cabeço da Ladeira (Portugal) site. Here, the peritidal carbonates of the Chão das Pias Formation (Middle Jurassic, upper Bajocian) record the development of microbial mats in a tidal flat. Episodically, the flat was expanded during periods o...
