O solo constitui um recurso natural complexo e central para a produção agrícola e a qualidade ambiental dos agroecossistemas. O mapeamento e modelação detalhada das propriedades do solo por deteção remota permitem desenvolver ferramentas e conhecimento úteis para uma agricultura sustentável e responsável. Neste contexto, recolheram-se dados multiespectrais a partir do Sentinel-2 e de um veículo aéreo não tripul...
Pterospartum tridendatum is an important source of active compounds with anti-inflammatory properties. The ability of P. tridentatum leaves methanolic extract in preventing/reversing inflammation was studied in adult rats using a model of experimental osteoarthritis (OA) and ear edema. Control animals (SHAM) were administered phosphate buffer solution (PBS), while OA animals received either P. tridentatum 100 m...
The high volumes of animal manure and sewage sludge, as a consequence of the development of intensive and specialized cattle dairy farms in peri-urban areas, pose challenges to local environmental quality and demands for systems innovation. Besides these negative impacts, energy recovery from biogas produced in anaerobic co-digestion processes should contribute to local sustainable development. This research co...
