Boas práticas para a promoção da sustentabilidade no ensino e curricula nas ins...
Duarte, Marina; Farinha, Carla Sofia; Caeiro, Sandra; Reis, Margarida Santos; Simão, João; Rigueiro, Constança; Galacho, Cristina; Câmara, PatríciaReconhece-se que a sustentabilidade é um conceito interdisciplinar vital (Siller et al., 2022) e um dos maiores desafios que se colocam, não só atualmente, mas também às sociedades futuras (Suárez-López & Eugenio-Gozalbo, 2022). Por esse motivo, é necessária uma maior ênfase e enquadramento no ensino e curricula das Instituições de Ensino Superior (IES), motivando definir estratégias de aprendizagem que possibi...
Modelling the distribution of Mustela nivalis and M. putorius in the Azores arc...
Lamelas-López, Lucas; Pardavila, Xose; Borges, Paulo A. V.; Reis, Margarida Santos; Amorim, Isabel R.; Santos, Maria J.The aims of this study were to predict the potential distribution of two introduced Mustelidae, Mustela nivalis and M. putorius in the Azores archipelago (Portugal), and evaluate the relative contribution of environmental factors from native and introduced ranges to predict species distribution ranges in oceanic islands. We developed two sets of Species Distribution Models using MaxEnt and distribution data fro...

Tiago, Patrícia; Gouveia, Maria João Pinheiro Morais; Capinha, César; Reis, Margarida Santos; Pereira, Henrique MarquesCitizen science has become a mainstream approach to collect information and data on many different scientific subjects. In this study, we assess the effectiveness of engagement and meaningful experience of participants in citizen science projects. We use motivational measures calculated from a web survey where respondents answered questions regarding to their motivation to participate in BioDiversity4All, a Por...
Carcass persistence and detectability : reducing the uncertainty surrounding wi...
Santos, Rodrigo Augusto Lima; Santos, Sara M.; Reis, Margarida Santos; Figueiredo, Almir Picanço de; Bager, Alex; Aguiar, Ludmilla Moura de SouzaCarcass persistence time and detectability are two main sources of uncertainty on roadkill surveys. In this study, we evaluate the influence of these uncertainties on roadkill surveys and estimates. To estimate carcass persistence time, three observers (including the driver) surveyed 114km by car on a monthly basis for two years, searching for wildlife-vehicle collisions (WVC). Each survey consisted of five con...
Assessing the consistency of hotspot and hot-moment patterns of wildlife road m...
Santos, Rodrigo Augusto Lima; Ascensão, Fernando; Ribeiro, Marina Lopes; Bager, Alex; Reis, Margarida Santos; Aguiar, Ludmilla Moura de SouzaSpatial and temporal aggregation patterns of wildlife-vehicle collisions are recurrently used to informwhere and when mitigation measures are most needed. The aim of this study is to assess if such aggre-gation patterns remain in the same locations and periods over time and at different spatial and temporalscales. We conducted biweekly surveys (n = 484) on 114 km of nine roads, searching for road casualties(n =...
