BIODIVERSITY ANALYSIS BIODIVERSITY ANALYSIS Biodiversity in numbers 1. How many species of plants, animals and fungi can be found in your country? There are million of living beings that we can in Portugal. Several dozens are protected by law: bat, bustard; saramugo; Iberian wolf Iberian lynx, osprey, black stork, Portuguese laurel cherry (laurel-of-Portugal), four-leaf clover; mad-Ginjeira-of the Azores; cork; oaks Endemic species we have several as: BIODIVERSITY ANALYSIS Some Endemic Portuguese species Plants Birds • Berlengensis Armeria, Armeria-of-Berlengas - Berlengas Archipelago • Pigeon wood- • Armeria maderensis, ARMERIA wood-- Madeira Island • Zino's Petrel • Pseudarmeria armeria, Clove-Roman - Sintra Region and • Priolo Lisbon • Columba trocaz, Pigeon wood-- Madeira Island • Chaerophyllum azoricum, in the Azorean islands of São • Pterodroma wood, wood-Nun - Madeira Island Miguel, São Jorge, Pico and Flores Island • Pyrrhula murine, Priolo - Sao Miguel Island • Musschia wollastonii, Tangerão-bravo - Madeira Island • Mammals Fish • Adult specimen of bat of the Azores • Adult specimen of bat of the Azores • Achondrostoma occidentale, Ruivaco-the-West - • Azores Noctule, Bat-of-Azores – Azores District of Lisbon • Achondrostoma oligolepis, roach - West and North of Reptiles Portugal • Madeiran Wall Lizard • Hydrolagus lusitanicus, Chimera-Lusitanian - Algarve • Teira dugesii, Gecko wood-- Madeira and the Azores • Iberochondrostoma lusitanicum, Boga-Portuguese - southwest of Portugal • Tarentola bischoffi, Gecko-the-wild - Hayes BIODIVERSITY ANALYSIS 2. Describe the system of protected areas in your country? (Show in a map.) The protected areas are classified, so fauna, flora, landscape and ecosystems or other natural present, by being so rare, ecological value or landscape value, scientific importance, cultural or social, a special relevance that demands specific measures of conservation e management, in order to promote rational management of natural resources, valorisation of natural patrimony and built, regulamenting artificial interventions that may do some damage. In Portugal this includes: the national park, natural parks, natural reservations, natural monuments, classified places and protected landscapes. BIODIVERSITY ANALYSIS BIODIVERSITY ANALYSIS 3. How many UNESCO biosphere reserves do you have? (Show in a map.) Portugal has got seven biosphere reservations belonging to the UNESCO biosphere reserve, they were established in 2011 and they are: Berlengas Archipelago Corvo island Graciosa island Flores island National Park Peneda-Gerês, belonging to the border Gerês/Xurés Paul do Boquilobo natural reserve Santana BIODIVERSITY ANALYSIS Reservas da Biosfera Parque Nacional da Peneda-Gerês Arquipélago das Ilha do Corvo Berlengas Reserva Natural do Ilha Graciosa Paul do Boquilobo Ilha das Flores Santana BIODIVERSITY ANALYSIS 4. How many proposed Site of Community Importance and Special Protection Areas (bird) according to Natura 2000 are in your country? Natura Net in 2000 in Portugal, the geographical position of our country, is quite clear showing the high biological diversity existing in Portugal. In Portugal, there are 96 SIC classified (sites of community importance) and 59 ZPE (special protection zones).

Describe the typical cultural landscape (towns, villages and other places changed by a man). Portugal has got 13 Natural Parks – protected areas with the objective of establishing the conditions to a more intimal relation between men and nature. These areas coma about of the need to conserve and preserve Nature, landscape, built patrimony and typical population lifestyle. This space includes landscapes of national interest, being as such natural, semi natural or humanized. In a natural park, nature and human activities establish a balanced relationship and harmony, that makes it a natural region or bioma, that is of interest to preserve. BIODIVERSITY ANALYSIS Natural Parks (humanized) BIODIVERSITY ANALYSIS Natural Parks (humanized) BIODIVERSITY ANALYSIS 7. Is there a degraded landscape in your area? Propose any possible steps of recultivation of landscape. We do not degraded areas in our region. BIODIVERSITY ANALYSIS 8. What natural ecosystems in your school surroundings are used for learning? We use mainly our land ecosistems typical in: the Cork forest; that exists in the region here our school is situated. In a smaller scale , we use the exterior space in our school, even for classes. BIODIVERSITY ANALYSIS 9. What attractive landscape features are in your country (karst caves, sandstones, …)? Caves: Leiria/Fátima BIODIVERSITY ANALYSIS Alentejo: the coast Angular discrepancy Telheiro Beach (only one in the world) BIODIVERSITY ANALYSIS Algarve: beaches BIODIVERSITY ANALYSIS Biodiversity at school 10. Do pupils learn about biodiversity and relationships between organisms? Yes, they do, biodiversity and biotic relations (between living beings) are taught inn the 5th grade (10/11years old) and specially in the 8th grade (13/14 years old). at the 8th grade level, in the Sciences classes we teach exclusively Ecosistems: their relations and sustainability. BIODIVERSITY ANALYSIS 11. What ecosystems can you study/watch in your school garden/near school environs? Which way? Mainly land ecosystems. We study especially some tree species, insects and small beings in the soil. Sometimes some species of birds. 12. How many plant species can be found in your garden/ near school environs? Make approximate estimation. We have species of several realms: plants, small animals, fungus Predominantly between 40 to 60 species. BIODIVERSITY ANALYSIS 13. Which way of increasing biodiversity in your school environment/ near school environs do you use? We try to preserve the habitats of the present living beings; We plant new species of plants and trees; We build nest and shelters to protect those beings (at the moment we have a project to renovate those shelters) 14. Do you use any plant-growing principles to protect biodiversity in your school garden/ near school environs? We value plantation of regional plants and avoid the plantation of exotic or invader species. .

These obstacles make ultra-peripheral regions suitable case studies considering their territorial governance and consequently, sustainable development and growth. Thus, transportation and infrastructure sustainability in these regions are not an exception. Con- sidering all the obstacles present in these regions, the accessibility and connectivity patterns that the local population has in these territories should be assessed and monitored.

The drive to the hotel was only five minutes and after check-in we had dinner and a nice rest after it. Day 2 We started the day visiting the most arid area in Madeira, on the eastern tip, Ponta de São Lourenço, where we watched Berthelot’s Pipits, Eurasian Kestrels and Clouded Yellow Butterflies. We only had a glimpse of two Rock Petronias flying and sitting on a rock for less than 20 seconds which did not allow everyone to have a good look at them through the telescope. Then we drove to the centre of the village of Caniçal where we looked for Spanish Sparrows and where a male displayed quite well. A male Blackcap and Eurasian Collared- doves were also observed here. After we headed to the north side of the island, to Faial, in search for the endemic Trocaz Pigeon and where we were very successful watching a few flying and others sitting on branches on open view. Lunch was taken at a restaurant with a really nice view over the green cliffs diving into the blue of the ocean and from where we saw more Eurasian Kestrels and Trocaz Pigeons flying and a Eurasian Sparrowhawk.

RESUMEN Se presenta el estudio preliminar de flujo ígneo en diques basálticos de la isla de Corvo, (Azores), usando la técnica de la Anisotropía de la Susceptibilidad Magnética (ASM). Las muestras proceden de un total de 5 diques con una orientación variable N-S a NE-SO. Uno de los diques se localiza en la zona central de la caldera volcánica y el resto en la sector meridional de la isla. Todos los diques muestran una fábrica magnética normal determinada por la orientación preferente de cristales de magnetita y caracterizada por una foliación magnética paralela a las paredes. Para el dique localizado en la caldera volcánica, la lineación magnética, en posición vertical, contrasta con la lineación horizontal obtenida en el resto de las estaciones. Estos resultados son compatibles con un modelo de emplazamiento caracterizado por un flujo vertical del magma en la zona central del complejo volcánico que gradualmente se horizontaliza en las zonas distales del complejo. Key words: AMS technique, basaltic dykes, magma flow direction, Corvo Island, Azores.

  • AERC Wplist July 2015
    AERC Western Palearctic list, July 2015 About the list: 1) The limits of the Western Palearctic region follow for convenience the limits defined in the “Birds of the Western Palearctic” (BWP) series (Oxford University Press). 2) The AERC WP list follows the systematics of Voous (1973; 1977a; 1977b) modified by the changes listed in the AERC TAC systematic recommendations published online on the AERC web site. For species not in Voous (a few introduced or accidental species) the default systematics is the IOC world bird list. 3) Only species either admitted into an "official" national list (for countries with a national avifaunistic commission or national rarities committee) or whose occurrence in the WP has been published in detail (description or photo and circumstances allowing review of the evidence, usually in a journal) have been admitted on the list. Category D species have not been admitted. 4) The information in the "remarks" column is by no mean exhaustive. It is aimed at providing some supporting information for the species whose status on the WP list is less well known than average. This is obviously a subjective criterion.

Scarce studies have been conducted regarding its built heritage, and deep knowledge of the constructions is necessary for conservation actions to be carried out. This article presents the architectonic and constructive characterization of housing building features that compose Corvo village’s historical center, focusing on its characteristics, dissonances, and conservation state. A case study regarding one housing building is presented. This research intends to contribute to a deeper knowledge of these buildings’ identity, constituting the first step towards future rehabilitation processes that can improve the inhabitants’ quality of life and simultaneously value the territory’s singularity.

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract We present here evidence of pre-Portuguese presence in the Azores Islands, Portugal, found near the site of Grota do Medo (Posto Santo), discovered by Rodrigues (2013) in Terceira Island, Azores. This evidence was dated by Accelerator Mass Spectrometry, and indicates the presence of human activity in Terceira Island before or during the XIth century. The evidence consisted in a man-made rock basin, which was found in a site that contains also striking similarities with many other as- pects from ancient cultures, including other man-made rock basins, arrangements of large stones which resemble megalithic constructions, and inscriptions in stones which resemble ancient pe- troglyphs. Although the dating of this evidence is highly suggestive of the presence of human ac- tivity in the Azores Islands long before the arrival of the Portuguese navigators of the XVth century, there is no clear evidence which enables us to identify which specific culture may have existed in the Azores before the Portuguese arrival.
