Num mundo cada vez mais globalizado e com a tecnologia a possibilitar o teletrabalho a partir de qualquer parte do mundo, Portugal tornou-se um país bastante atrativo, o que levou a um aumento da procura do Português Língua Estrangeira (PLE). Podendo estes aprendentes ser de muitos países e ter perfis bastante distintos, é importante ter em consideração as suas características individuais na criação e implement...
Mammals are threatened worldwide, with 26% of all species being included in the IUCN threatened categories. This overall pattern is primarily associated with habitat loss or degradation, and human persecution for terrestrial mam mals, and pollution, open net fishing, climate change, and prey depletion for marine mammals. Mammals play a key role in maintaining ecosystems func tionality and resilience, and theref...

Neste artigo de opinião trazemos informações atualizadas sobre morcegos e COVID-19 e discutimos porque morcegos não deveriam ser culpados por uma doença pela qual não foram responsáveis. Morcegos não deveria...
The IUCN provides a spatial database for many species, including terrestrial mammals. This database includes shapefiles with taxonomic information and the extent of occurrence for each species, and has been used in hundreds of studies in ecology, biogeography and conservation. Here we provide updated distribution maps that comprise the extent of occurrence of the neotropical bat species in the superfamily Nocti...
Ultrasound detectors have revolutionized the study of bats, as they allow for cost-effective gathering of large amounts of data on bat activity. The identification of bat species through the analysis of echolocation calls is possible, as long as the researcher is well aware of the features and limitations of the detector and methods used. In bat studies, field logistics frequently leads to the need of leaving t...
Structured in three components - Governance, Citizenship and Dynamic-Spatial Structure – the MARGov project aims to build a Model of Collaborative Governance for Marine Protected Areas using as case study the Marine Park Professor Luiz Saldanha. The objective is to empower local communities enabling them to be agents for change for the sustainable governance of the Ocean, through an eco-social dialogue supporte...
