Spain. ISSN: 0213-8409 Maria Jose´ Lemos Boavida: Limnologist and Teacher, in memoriam Maria Jose´ Caramujo R. de Carvalho Centro de Biolog´ıa Ambiental Universidade de Lisboa Maria Jose´ Boavida died on the 30th of August, 2012, aged 64. After graduating in Biology at the University of Lisbon, Portugal, she continued her studies at Kent State University (USA). It was at the end of her first year at Kent that, as she was so fond of mentioning, she became fascinated with a paper published by Ramon Margalef in 1951, relative to the production of phosphatases by Daphnia. This fascination led to her Master thesis topic and later to her Ph.D. studies and the demonstration that zooplankters were really producing their own phosphatases and not only re- leasing those ingested with their algal food (Boavida and Heath, 1984; Boavida, 2010). The role played by phosphorus, phosphorus regeneration and zooplankton interactions in lakes were a fundamental part of her scientific research which led to the development of limnology studies in Portugal. She was the national representative of the International Association of Theoretical and Applied Limnology (SIL), and the Portuguese members of SIL profited from her great effort in keeping us up to date with the latest limnology developments, and organising the bureaucratic aspects of SIL membership. Many of us who were her students, thank her the kindness of translating into Portuguese the book Limnology by her friend R.G. Wetzel, which was famously used as syllabus in her course of “Limnology” at the University of Lisbon. Her curiosity and scientific knowledge, further developed in cooperation with re- searchers both at the University of Lisbon and at several research centres throughout the world, granted her the esteem from co-workers and students alike. As a teacher, Maria Jose´ was well known for her care in preparing her classes and advising students, to whom she imparted her interest in the various phenomena shaping the dynamics of lakes. Many 14320 Limnetica 31(2), pàgina 1, 04/11/2012 ii Maria Jose´ Caramujo R. de Carvalho students and colleagues became interested in aquatic ecology through her influence and guidance. This enthusiasm for science required great dedication and discipline from her part, and often others felt she demanded a similar level of attention and dedication from them. Although the demand for scientific honesty and human decency was a requirement in her dealings with students and co-workers, she was generous with those in need of help, and often brought out the best in them. Allying her drive to help and her characteristic fight against scientific inaccuracy, she recently wrote a “Scientific Glossary of Limnology” in a small format so that “students may use it in the field or poster sessions in conferences, where often doubts arise and there is nobody (...) to ask” (Boavida, 2011). Considering her prolific career, it is fitting that her last book can be carried in the pocket as a protection against embarrassment and error. Maria Jose´ was born in 1948 in Mozambique where she spent her youth, and moved to Portugal in 1968. She always spoke fondly of her free upbringing, the wonderful nature of the land and a time when responsibility for the wellbeing of the fellow human and friendship were all important aspects of the human character. Her passing is a great loss for limnology in Portugal, yet, for those who had the privilege to know her personally, it is the loss of a loyal and generous friend. REFERENCES BOAVIDA, M. J. 2010.

AIL’s committe has decided to publish this manuscript in this volume in homage to Dr. M. J. Boavida’s career. This paper was previously published in 2010 in Limnetica internet (www.limnetica.es). ABSTRACT It all started with Margalef’s paper of 1951 As early as 1951, Margalef speculated on the production of soluble phosphatases by zooplankton; “entomostracans” were producing their own phosphatases and so contributing to phosphate regeneration. After analytical techniques had been considerably improved and introduced into limnology laboratories, it was verified, almost three decades later, that the eminent scientist was right. The role of soluble phosphatase in fresh waters can be investigated either in straight relationship to plankton phosphatase producers or simply in connection with other chemical entities abundant in lake water, with capacity to condition enzyme activity. Such is the case of humic substances which complex with soluble phosphatase; the enzyme activity will be inactivated when making part of the complex (linked to the humic molecule) and reactivated again once the complex is broken down, e.g. by the action of UV light from the sun. Key words: Daphnia, phosphatase, hydrolysis, photolysis. RESUMEN Todo empezó con el trabajo de Margalef de 1951 Desde 1951 Margalef especuló sobre la producción de fosfatasas solubles por zooplancton; “entomostracans” produjeron sus propias fosfatasas contribuyendo así a la regeneración de fosfato. Casi tres décadas después se ha confirmado que el eminente cientista tenía razón, después de que las técnicas analíticas hayan mejorado significativamente y se hayan introducido en los laboratorios de limnología. El papel de la fosfatasa soluble en aguas dulces puede ser investigado en estrecha relación con el plancton productor o sencillamente en relación con otras entidades químicas que abundan en el agua de los lagos, con capacidad para condicionar la actividad de enzimas. Es el caso de las sustancias húmicas que forman complejos con fosfatasa soluble; la actividad enzimática será desactivada cuando hace parte del complejo (ligado a la molécula húmica) y reactivada

Watersheds can be threatened by deforestation, uncontrolled logging, changes in farming systems, overgrazing, road and track construction, pollution, and invasion of exotic plants. This article describes a procedure to automati- cally monitor the river basins of Galicia, Spain, using five-band multispectral images taken by an unmanned aerial vehicle and several image processing algorithms. The objective is to determine the state of the vegetation, especially the identification of areas occupied by invasive species, as well as the detection of man-made structures that occupy the river basin using multispectral images. Since the territory to be studied occupies extensive areas and the resulting images are large, techniques and algorithms have been selected for fast execution and efficient use of computational resources.

Padina stipitata Tanaka et Nozawa (Phaeophyceae) and Codium saccatum Okamura (Chlorophyceae) are notable additions to the flora from deepwater habitats in the southern Australs; 56 taxa (or 28.7%) occur only in the Austral archipelago. The flora has most affinities with that of the Hawaiian Islands (Sørensen Index = 0.30), followed by the Cook Islands and Samoa (SI = 0.26 each) and the Solomon Islands (SI = 0.25). There are some disjunct distribution patterns for several subtropical to temperate species, possibly suggesting special oceanic current routes between the southern Australs, Hawaii and the Southern Australian region.

The Vierzo district, and above all the western portion of the Cantabrian chain of mountains areaterra incognita to the naturalist. The Vierzo is, roughly speakiüg, the western corner of the pro- vince of Leoo. The Cantabrian mountains divide it towards the North from the province of Oviedo, towards the West from that of Lugo in Galicia. The only high road, which connects Leon with Galicia leads across the Pass of Piedrafita, to the North of which lies the Sierra de Picos, to the South the Sierra de Caurel. This road was the great highway to Santiago de Compostella, and was crowded in the middle ages, „when times were better", by the thousands of French and German pilgrims, who were anxious to gain the Scallop shell. From these pilgrims Villafranca has received its name, one of the few towns of the Vierzo, close to the site of the old Bergidum (hence Vierzo) of the Romans. We made our headquarters at the wretched village of Burbia, 2700 feet above the sealevel, on the south eastern slopes of the Sierra de Picos. This Sierra is subalpine in character, some of its peaks rising to a height of 6500 feet.

Some of these phases may be attributed to Heinrich events. In this sense, the colluvial layers identified at Monforte de Lemos show the key role played by morphogenetic processes in the configuration of the continental deposits during the H4 event at the site of As Lamas and, probably, by H6 at the site of O Regueiral. These sites can be regarded as good examples of the role played by erosion phases on site formation and post-depositional processes in NW Iberia archaeological sites. Keywords: geomorphological analysis; OSL chronology; Monforte de Lemos; Upper Pleistocene; Post-depositional processes; Heinrich events. Resumen El estudio geomorfológico y geoarqueológico de los yacimientos Paleolíticos de la depresión de Monforte de Lemos (Lugo, Galicia), así como las dataciones OSL nos permiten correlacionar los depósitos coluviales Pleistocenos de la cuenca terciaria con los procesos erosivos identificados en depósitos glaciares y costeros del NW de la península Ibérica, así como en otros yacimientos gallegos del Paleolítico.
