Is the Sea the Enemy? Occupation and Anthropogenic Impacts at Costa da Caparica (Portugal)
Water, 2022 This article explores the development of human occupation and the anthropogenic impacts at Costa da Caparica, a Portuguese coastal town that faces several challenges concerning coastal erosion processes. A historical long-term analysis was made, mainly through medieval and modern writing sources, crossing such textual data with geology, geography, and ...

Do culturable seed endophyte communities differ between native and invasive Fabaceae sharing the same habitat? [PDF]
Plant Biol (Stuttg)Invasive Acacia seeds harbour richer and more functionally diverse endophyte communities than co‐occurring native Fabaceae, which could enhance establishment and invasion success of Acacia. Abstract Invasive plant species threaten ecosystems by decreasing biodiversity and altering their functioning.
