- Advances in comparative endocrinologyPublication . Guerreiro, Pedro Miguel; Cardoso, João C.This is the 10th volume of Advances in Comparative Endocrinology, a series of books that collect the communications presented at the congresses of the Iberian Association for Comparative Endocrinology (AIEC). This round number marks roughly 20 years since the foundation of AIEC and the beginning of the biennial meetings organized by AIEC affiliated groups. In 2005, our Comparative Endocrinology and Integrative Biology group CEIB-CCMAR organized the 5th AIEC meeting and it was a pleasure to welcome the 12th AIEC Congress back again to Faro, Portugal, in 2019 (26-28 September). Volume X includes contributions resulting from plenary, keynote, oral or poster presentations, and authored by almost 150 senior or young scientists and students, which show the latest advances in the fields of reproduction, energy metabolism, genomics, evolution, stress, immune response and growth in both vertebrates and invertebrates. Studies range from fundamental questions on endocrinology to environmental challenges, animal production and welfare, or the mechanisms of disease, and reach beyond the Iberian borders. In addition to Portugal and Spain, the science presented here comes from institutions in Canada, Chile, France, Norway and USA. About 30% of the communications result from international cooperation, and over 55% were direct collaborations between institutions. AIEC aims to promote collaborations and its congresses are a privileged stage for networking.
- Ecossistemas de corais em águas continentais profundas portuguesasPublication .

- Lifespan, health and metabolic diseases. Book of abstracts, IX-SPB Clinical Biochemistry WorkshopPublication . Manuel, Aureliano; Simão, Márcio; Ferreira, Bibiana; Coelho, Ana Luísa; Simão, Sónia; Costa, Ana; Antunes, Célia; Cancela, LeonorThe IX Clinical Biochemistry Workshop (IX-CBW) was held on January 26, 2024, at the University of Algarve (UAlg), Faro, within the scope of the Clinical Biochemistry thematic group of the Portuguese Society of Biochemistry (SPB). It was the second time in 14 years that this important Workshop on Clinical Biochemistry will be held in Faro, after the IV edition (2010), chaired by Professor Aureliano Alves. The IX Clinical Biochemistry Workshop follows previous successful Clinical Biochemistry symposia held in Porto (2003, 2006, 2008, 2016), Faro (2010), Coimbra (2012), Lisbon (2014), and Évora (2018). This interdisciplinary event aims to bring together researchers from the scientific community who enhance the interaction between Biochemistry and Clinics to present their most recent discoveries on topics such as aging, health and metabolic diseases with an emphasis on neurological, cardiovascular diseases and diabetes, among other pathologies. However, historically, this Workshop has had a high percentage of undergraduate, master's and doctoral students as participants, reflecting the interest that the event has had in scientists of the future. Students from various degrees, masters and doctorates, as well as researchers and teachers, are therefore invited to participate in the IX Clinical Biochemistry Workshop, in the simple city of Faro, where it is good to live, study and to do research! Share with us your latest research to a committed scientific community, which has shared and promoted these Workshops in this 21st century. The excellent quality expected from the presenters and their research will certainly serve as an innovative reference for the coming decades, allowing for a broader application of Clinical Biochemistry in various fields as well as promoting the quality of life of future generations.
- Relatório Científico I: Avaliação dos ecossistemas de carbono azul em Portugal continental.Publication . Santos, Rui; Ito, Paula; de los Santos, Carmen B.Por ocasião da Conferência do Oceano das Nações Unidas, que decorreu em Lisboa em junho de 2022, a Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian lançou o projeto Gulbenkian Carbono Azul, em parceria com o Centro de Ciências do Mar (CCMAR) da Universidade do Algarve e a Associação Natureza Portugal em associação com a WWF – World Wide Fund for Nature (ANP|WWF), com o objetivo de investigar as informações disponíveis para mapear os ecossistemas marinhos e costeiros em Portugal continental que têm o potencial de sequestrar dióxido de carbono da atmosfera – os ecossistemas de carbono azul. Esta investigação científica, feita de norte a sul do país, caracteriza os ecossistemas (localização, áreas de distribuição, estado ambiental, reservas e taxas de sequestro de carbono, entre outras características) e propõe medidas adequadas de proteção e restauro.
- Vulnerabilidade da pesca em Portugal ao impacto das mudanças climáticasPublication . Miguel de Sousa Leitão, Francisco; Pinto, Miguel; Albo Puigserver, Marta; Teodosio, Maria AlexandraEste livro pretende enriquecer o setor da pesca, com informação relativa ao efeito das alterações climáticas, no setor pesqueiro. Visa, assim, aumentar a capacidade de os pescadores enfrentarem os desafios das mudanças climáticas. A capacidade de tolerar as alterações futuras, que o meio marinho irá sofrer, e o seu impacto nos recursos pesqueiros, só poderá ser assegurada se a pesca se basear nos princípios de uma exploração sustentável e ecológica.
- Zooplankton ecology [Índice e Prefácio]Publication . Teodósio, Maria Alexandra; Barbosa, Ana MariaThis book aims at providing students and researchers an advanced integrative overview on zooplankton ecology, covering marine and freshwater organisms, from microscopic phagotrophic protists, to macro-jellyfishes and active fish larvae. The first book section addresses zooplanktonic organisms and processes, the second section is devoted to zooplankton spatial and temporal distribution patterns and trophic dynamics, and the final section is dedicated to emergent methodological approaches (e.g., omics). Book chapters include comprehensive synthesis, observational and manipulative studies, and sediment-based analysis, a vibrant imprint of benthic-pelagic coupling and ecosystem connectivity. Most chapters also address the impacts of anticipated environmental changes (e.g., warming, acidification).
