  • Research in Maritime Archaeology in Portugal 451
    450Research in maritimeSHIPWRECKS AROUND archaeology THE WORLD: REVELATIONS in OF THE PAST Portugal: A view of the Past and Present 20 Tiago Miguel Fraga, Cristóvão Fonseca, Inês Pinto Coelho, Jorge Freire, Patrícia Carvalho and André Teixeira, Centro de História de Além-Mar, Universidade Nova de Lisboa and Universidade dos Açores, Lisboa, Portugal Portugal is a country with a secular strategy in overseas expansion, a cultural identity linked to the sea and of a cultural heritage spawning four continents. Thus maritime archaeology has become an essential field to understand the country. Presented here is an overview of the current state of maritime archaeology in Portugal in regard to several projects presently underway in Portugal and their contribution towards Portuguese history and maritime history in general. These occur in diverse fields as coastal knowledge, maritime cultural landscape, coastal archaeology, port studies associated with river and estuary research, ship’s studies and history of shipbuilding. Portugal’s ties to the sea have a secular origin. The geographic shoreline configuration (800 km of shoreline in a border of 1800 km) and abundant waterways and ports, led to an intense riverside settlement, to the development of maritime related economic activities, to a secular navigation knowledge and, of course, the cognitive construction of an entire magico-religious maritime tradition in the territory of present day Portugal. A country with very early defined borders in the late 13th century, Portugal secularly adopted overseas expansion as a main strategy. Its interventions in Africa, America and Asia tried to balance a lack of European expression, enabling a fragile political, economic and even cultural independence.

  • Application to the Odelouca Earthen Dam
    6TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON DAM ENGINEERING C.Pina, E.Portela, J.Gomes (ed.) Lisbon, Portugal, February 15-17, 2011 INTERNAL EMERGENCY ACTION PLANS FOR DAMS – APPLICATION TO THE ODELOUCA EARTHEN DAM Mário J. Franca, Ana Quintela *, Miguel Gamboa †, Carla Cupido, Marisa Viriato, João Sousa ‡ and Rui M.L. Ferreira § * Tetraplano, Engenharia Lda Rua Poeta do Bocage, n.º 13 – B, 1600-581 Lisbon, Portugal e-mail: [email protected], webpage: http://www.tetraplano.com Keywords: dam safety, internal emergency action plan, dam break modeling Abstract . Portuguese regulation classifies large dams in three classes according to the risk in the downstream valley. To Class 1 dams, corresponding to the maximum risk, an Internal Emergency action Plan (IEP) relative to the reservoir and to the near area of the downstream valley is demanded to dam owners. The information contained in the IEP constitutes the main guidelines to dam owner when facing adverse situations which may cause consequences to the dam itself and to the downstream valley. Odelouca dam in Algarve, recently built, is a 76 m high earthen dam with a storage volume of 157 hm 3. An internal emergency plan was established to the first 17 km downstream the dam where about 110 persons lives. The elaboration of IEP for Odelouca dam followed novel directives from national civil protection authorities and it was based on two important premises: i) an adequate valley characterization based on an intensive valley survey and, ii) a solid numerical simulation of flood in case of dam break made with up-to-date physical based breaching and wave propagating models, RoDaB and STAV.

  • Tours Around the Algarve
    BARLAVENTO BARLAVENTO Região de Turismo do Algarve SAGRES TOUR SAGRES SAGRES TOUR SAGRES The Algarve is the most westerly part of mainland Europe, the last harbouring place before entering the waters of the Atlantic, a region where cultures have mingled since time immemorial. Rotas & Caminhos do Algarve (Routes and Tours of the Algarve) aims to provide visitors with information to help them plan a stay full of powerful emotions, a passport to adventure, in which the magic of nature, excellent hospitality, the grandeur of the Algarve’s cultural heritage, but also those luxurious and cosmopolitan touches all come together. These will be tours which will lure you into different kinds of activity and adventure, on a challenge of discovery. The hundreds of beaches in the Algarve seduce people with their white sands and Atlantic waters, which sometimes surge in sheets of spray and sometimes break on the beaches in warm waves. These are places to relax during lively family holidays, places for high-energy sporting activity, or for quiet contemplation of romantic sunsets. Inland, there is unexplored countryside, with huge areas of nature reserves, where you can follow the majestic flight of eagles or the smooth gliding of the storks. Things that are always mentioned about the people of the Algarve are their hospitality and their prowess as story-tellers, that they are always ready to share experiences, and are open to CREDITS change and diversity. The simple sophistication of the cuisine, drawing inspiration from the sea and seasoned with herbs, still Property of the: Algarve Tourism Board; E-mail: [email protected]; Web: www.visitalgarve.pt; retains a Moorish flavour, in the same way as the traditional Head Office: Av.

Or rather big, naturally. This territory of nearly five thousand square 14 Planalto Vicentino kilometres goes far beyond the sands that concentrate the attention of tourists in the summer. 20 Paleodunes From the Barlavento to the Sotavento, there are hidden protected natural areas or that haven’t 23 Reserva Biogenética de Sagres had the attention they deserve. They all wait patiently in the wild, for the looks and the passing 28 Estuaries and Marine Environment by of true Nature lovers. If you are one of them, I warn you that here, in these pages, the journey 33 South Coast begins, through the cliffs, the forest, the riparian corridors and estuarine systems of the Algarve. 38 Costal Wetlands 40 Ria Formosa In fact, we have so many landscapes and with such great biological importance that choosing 47 Ria de Alvor just one would be a Herculean task. And if there is no possible selection among the various 51 Estuário do Arade natural environments in the Algarve, the only solution is to discover them all. Slowly and with 54 Marshes, Reedbeds and Coastal Lagoons heightened senses. 59 Dune Systems and Pine Forests 65 Cliffs at Central Algarve This guide therefore strengthens the diversity of experiences that the destination offers to those 69 Barrocal who want to turn relaxation time into a real vacation. It is no coincidence that nature tourism 76 Fonte da Benémola emerges as one of the products that are “in development” in the Algarve, in the revision proposal 79 Ribeira de Quarteira document of the National Strategic Plan for Tourism (PENT).

Transferências técnicas e desenvolvimento do transporte no Sul de Portugal Esta dissertação pretende contribuir para um melhor conhecimento da complexidade das redes de transferência de conhecimentos e técnicas, no domínio da engenharia civil e mais concretamente através dos caminhos-de-ferro, nos séculos XIX e XX. Em Portugal, os caminhos-de-ferro estiveram no cerne de um vasto debate, sobretudo político, concomitante com uma instabilidade crescente no cenário político e uma fase de fragilidade económica. É neste contexto que a Linha do Sul e Sueste vai ser construída (seguida pela sua extensão até Vila Real de Santo António e pela construção do ramal de Portimão, que chegará a Lagos). Este empreendimento é uma clara ilustração da realidade portuguesa de então, no que concerne ao desenvolvimento desta rede de transportes, que nos permite, igualmente, conhecer e compreender quem interveio no processo de construção da linha (os engenheiros, as empresas, entre outros aspectos) e assim determinar quais as influências e transferências técnicas que tiveram lugar.
