A New Soil Cartography at 1:100,000 scale for mainland Portugal
Batista, Gonçalo; Conceição, Mariana; Garcia, Ricardo A. C.; Oliveira, S.C.; Trindade, André; Viana, Cláudia; Rocha, JorgePortugal does not have detailed and complete soil maps at a scale that is useful for environmental management. Existing data is: Inconsistent and spread across different organizations; Different in terms of scale, methods used and classification systems; Often old maps converted from paper to digital, with missing or incorrect information. The General Soil Map of Portugal (1:1,100,000) is still the only nationa...
Introductory chapter: time series analysis
Viana, Cláudia; Oliveira, Sandra; Rocha, JorgeTime series, defined as sequentially observed data points over time [1], find applications across diverse domains such as economics and engineering. The statistical analysis of time series is crucial, and Chatfield’s taxonomy identifies six main categories: Economic and Financial Time Series, Physical Time Series, Marketing Time Series, Process Control Data, Binary Processes, and Point Processes. To effectively...
Time series analysis: recent advances, new perspectives and applications
Rocha, Jorge; Viana, Cláudia; Oliveira, SandraTime series analysis describes, explains, and predicts changes in a phenomenon through time. People have utilized techniques that add a distinctive spatial dimension to this type of analysis. Major applications of spatiotemporal analysis include forecasting epidemics, analyzing the development of traffic conditions in urban networks, and forecasting/backcasting economic risks such as those associated with chang...

Application of intensity analysis to model agricultural land use changes past d...
Viana, CláudiaThe magnitude and extent of the past decades land use/land cover (LULC) changes have been compromising the ecosystem function and the ecological processes in many parts of the world. Since the end of the 20th century, the assessment of the changes in the LULC raised as a research field in several domains, e.g., land planning, environmental, political, economic, and social monitoring, among others. In this study...
GIS and Spatial Analysis: Introductory Chapter
Viana, Cláudia; Boavida-Portugal, Inês; Gomes, Eduardo; Rocha, JorgeGeographic Information Systems (GIS) and spatial analysis are considered to be a science in their own right, with a solid theoretical and methodological basis. The science behind GIS and spatial analysis has been coined as geoinformatics, which is defined as the application of Geographic Information Science (GISc) to solve problems in earth and environmental sciences. Geoinformatics involves the collection, sto...
Climate change and its impacts on health, environment and economy
Rocha, Jorge; Oliveira, Sandra; Viana, Cláudia; Ribeiro, Ana IsabelThe welfare and stability of health systems depend on how they cope with climatic changes (Anderson & Bows, 2011). Climate change denotes a long-term change (normally for decades or longer) of the climate state that can be acknowledged through statistical methods (e.g. variability and/or the average of its properties) and have come to outline local, regional and global climates. Climate change can be triggered ...
