    A baía da cidade da Praia, na ilha de Santiago, Cabo Verde, acolhe um dos principais portos comerciais e de cruzeiros de Cabo Verde, tendo também uma relação importante, do ponto de vista ambiental e paisagístico, com a ...
  • Near-future changes in storm surges along the Atlantic Iberian coast 
    Fortunato, A. B.; Meredith, E.; Rodrigues, M.; Freire, P.; Feldmann, H. (Springer, 2019-09)
    Decadal predictions bridge the gap between the short-term weather/seasonal forecasts and the long-term climate projections. They target the reproduction of large-scale weather patterns at multi-year time scales by both ...

  • The closure of a shallow tidal inlet promoted by infragravity waves 
    Bertin, X.; Mendes, D.; Martins, K.; Fortunato, A. B.; Lavaud, L. (Wiley, 2019-06)
    Tidal inlets connect the ocean to inner water bodies and are present worldwide. Shallow inlets display fast morphological changes, due to complex interactions between tides, waves, and shallow depths. Their closure is ...
