Scenario Analysis in Ria Formosa with EcoDynamo

Ria Formosa is a natural park managed partly by the Portuguese end-users of the DITTY project – Ria Formosa Natural Park authority, under “Instituto para a Conservação da Natureza (ICN)”. There are many conflicting interests over the management of this important coastal area: fishing, tourism, aquaculture, salt production, harbour activities, urban development and conservation. Furthermore, several institutions...

Biogeochemical Modelling of Ria Formosa (South Portugal)

Ria Formosa is a large (c.a. 100 km2) mesotidal lagunary system with intertidal areas with conflicting uses such as fisheries, aquaculture, tourism and nature conservation. Its watersheds cover an area of approximately 864 km2, with a perimeter of 166 km and a maximum altitude of 522 m. Land use may be classified into six major groups: 1) urban, 2) agricultural, 3) forest, 4) rangeland and pastures, 5) wetlands...

Carrying Capacity Evaluation

Bivalve culture is an important economic activity in several regions and it should be carefully managed towards its sustainability. In this context, carrying capacity (CC) evaluation of coastal ecosystems for bivalve culture became an important topic. Mathematical modelling is a common approach for CC estimation. The objective of this work is to evaluate the importance of spatial resolution of mathematical mode...
