Os rios temporários são definidos como sistemas que durante um determinado período do ano não apresentam caudal superficial. São frequentes em regiões de características mediterrânicas, onde a ausência de precipitação durante os meses mais quentes do ano conduz à interrupção do caudal superficial. Assiste-se assim uma diminuição natural dos padrões de qualidade da água devido à ausência de água corrente, encont...
The impacts of agricultural activities in the environment are due to the lixiviation and soil erosion. Pollution of agricultural origin presents diffuse characteristics reaching the environment through surface runoff, lateral flow and groundwater flow. Models can contribute to understand the sources and the processes responsible for pollution, also identifying areas of concern. To evaluate the status of river w...
Excess of organic matter and nutrients in the water body promotes algae blooms, which can accelerate the eutrophication process, situation often observed in the Ardila river. This river was identified as very polluted and classified as critical for Alqueva-Pedrogão System. The aim of this study was to estimate the transported nutrients load in a transboundary catchment using the SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment ...
The project “Conservation and rehabilitation strategies for temporary Mediterranean river corridors: a case study on Pardiela basin, southern Portugal (Guadiana basin)", is being carried out,with the collaboration of researchers from diverse scientific areas, in order to increase the knowledge on temporary streams. The project includes different approaches at reach and basin scales, regarding the study of tempo...
The prevalence, complexity, clinical importance, heterogeneity and unpredictability of inherited cardiovascular diseases make the development of inherited cardiovascular disease centers an inevitability, with the ultimate goal of reducing the morbidity and mortality associated with these conditions. An inherited cardiovascular disease center may be seen as a subunit of a cardiology department, with health profe...
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a world-wide public health problem, with adverse outcomes of kidney failure, cardiovascular disease, and premature death. This finding has led to the hypothesis that earlier recognition of kidney disease and successful intervention may improve outcome. The National Kidney Foundation, through its Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (K/DOQI), and other National institutions ...
Comunicação apresentada no III Simpósio Nacional de Olvicultura que decorreu em Castelo Branco, na Escola Superior Agrária do Instituto Politécnico de Castelo Branco, de 289 a 31 de Outubro de 2003. ; As águas russas, principal resíduo da indústria de extracção do azeite, são caracterizadas por uma elevada carga orgânica poluente constituindo, por esta razão, um dos mais graves problemas ambientais dos países ...
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a myocardial disease, characterized by ventricular dilatation and impaired systolic function, that in more than 30% of cases has a familial or genetic origin. Given its age-dependent penetrance, DCM frequently manifests in adults by signs or symptoms of heart failure, arrhythmias or sudden death. The predominant mode of inheritance is autosomal dominant, and in these cases mutati...
