Aquaculture in the crossroad of microplastic contamination
Bebianno, Maria; Manthopoulos, Michael; Nathan, Justine; Cristina, Sónia; Ribeiro, Laura; Luna-Araújo, Ravi; Icely, John; Dias Duarte Fragoso, BrunoPlastic pollution threatens life and human health, with microplastics (MP) linked to seafood consumption. MPs enter aquaculture through the environment and from aquaculture gear. During aquaculture production, plastic is used in nets and sacks for the growth process and in collecting and processing so it becomes important to expand the knowledge about how much MPs are present in seafood. The aim was to investig...

A new diatom species from a transitional environment (Arade river estuary, Port...
Gomes, Ana; Hamilton, Paul Brian; Solak, Cüneyt Nadir; Boski, Tomasz; Moura, Delminda; Ertorun, Nesil; Yedidağ, FerhanDue to the environmental complexity created by physical and chemical gradients, transitional biomes host a large biological diversity. There has been some effort to better understand the diversity of diatoms living in these transitional environments, although many diatom species remain undescribed from these habitats. Gathering this knowledge will significantly improve our ability to halt biodiversity loss due ...
The Escarpão Plateau (South of Portugal)—a study case of nested geosites from t...
Veiga-Pires, Cristina; Jenkins Oliveira Fernandes, Sónia Alexandra; Moura, Delminda; Pereira, LuísFlatfish species seem to require dietary taurine for normal growth and development. Although dietary taurine supplementation has been recommended for flatfish, little is known about the mechanisms of taurine absorption in the digestive tract of flatfish throughout ontogeny. This study described the cloning and ontogenetic expression of the taurine transporter (TauT) in the flatfish Senegalese sole (Solea senega...

Veiga-Pires, Cristina; Jenkins Oliveira Fernandes, Sónia Alexandra; Moura, Delminda; Pereira, LuísLocated along the southern limit of the Algarvensis aspiring UNESCO Global Geopark (aUGGp), the Escarpão Plateau is a singular geomorphological structure sculpted by fluvial, karst, and tectonic processes. The plateau is deeply scarved by the Quarteira Rivulet, forming a valley that crosses the most complete Upper Jurassic sedimentary sequence of the Eastern Algarve (Southern Portugal). This sequence includes f...

Goy, J.L.; Roquero, E.; Zazo, C.; Moura, Delminda; Dabrio, C.J.; Boski, Tomasz; Martínez-Graña, A.; Lario, J.; Bardají, T.A detailed geomorphological mapping allowed to understand the complex relationships interplayed between local tectonics and sedimentation across the coastal area of the Baixo Alentejo (Portugal) all along the Quaternary. Different outcrops of coastal sediments between Sines and Vilanova de Milfontes permitted to reconstruct a general sequence of up to fifteen stair-cased marine terraces, while wide sequences of...
A history with many millions of years. From the Tethys Ocean to the Barrocal of...
Moura, Delminda; Oliveira, SóniaThis book resulted from a challenge by the Mayor of the City Council of Albufeira, José Carlos Rolo, to produce a scientific-pedagogical document that would reveal the mysteries of the Escarpão Plateau and surrounding region to a diverse audience. Luís Pereira, from the Mayor's support office, a tireless apprentice of geology with unshakable enthusiasm, traveled with us along all the paths of the Plateau and ad...
Uma janela educativa para o oceano Jurássico - o Planalto do Escarpão
Oliveira, Sónia; Veiga-Pires, C.; Moura, Delminda; Pereira, L.Situado na região mais a sudoeste da Europa, o aspirante a Geoparque Mundial da Unesco Algarvensis (aUGGp Algarvensis) é um território identitário e inspirador que visa contribuir para uma maior coesão social e territorial dos concelhos de Loulé, Silves e Albufeira, através de uma política de valorização do território, baseada no conceito de Geoparque UNESCO, com o apoio da Universidade do Algarve. O aUGGp Alga...

Veiga-Pires, Cristina; Oliveira, Sónia; Moura, Delminda; Pereira, LuísLocated along the southern limit of the aspiring algarvensis UGGp, the Escarpão Plateau is a singular geomorphological structure sculpted by the conjugation of fluvial, karst and tectonic processes. The plateau is deeply scarved by the Quarteira Rivulet forming a valley that crosses the most complete sedimentary sequence of the Upper Jurassic of the Eastern Algarve (161,2 to 145,5 million years).
Uma História com muitos milhões de anos. Do oceano Tethys ao barrocal do Algarve
Moura, Delminda; Oliveira, SóniaCada lugar encerra em si a história do tempo que a precede e a do mundo que envolveu. Este foi o ponto de partida das autoras para este olhar sobre o Planalto do Escarpão. Escolheram um lugar onde as rochas nos falam de mais de 150 milhões de anos de acontecimentos geoló gicos e onde o mundo da tectónica de placas ditou as regras e deixou os seus traços. Através de uma viagem pelo tempo e pelo espaço, esta trab...
