A three-dimensional primitive equation model and its application to a tidal estuary is described. The model solves the primitive equations for incompressible fluids with Boussinesq and hydrostatic approximations. The discretization is based on the finite volume method and allows a general vertical coordinate. The computational code is implemented in such a way that different vertical coordinates can be used in different parts of the domain. The model was designed to be able to simulate the flow both in the open ocean and in coastal and estuarine zones and can be coupled in a simple way to ecological models. The model was implemented successfully in several estuarine and coastal areas. Results are show for the Sado estuary in Portugal to illustrate model accuracy and potential. Quantitative validation is based on field data (water levels and velocities) while qualitative verification is based on the analysis of secondary flows.

Mixing between estuarine and coastal waters is strongly dependent on the processes that occur in the vertical direction. This applies both for stratified and homogeneous estuaries. In homogeneous estuaries important recirculation flows in the vertical plane can arise, in regions with strong batimetry gradients, produced by the combined action of inertia and friction. On the Platform close to the inlet this structures can trap estuarine water during the ebb period, releasing it to the interior again during the flood.

Grapevine leafroll disease (GLRD) is one of the most important virus diseases of grapevines worldwide, causing major economical impact. The disease has a complex aetiology and currently eleven phloem-limited viruses, termed in general Grapevine leafroll-associated virus (GLRaVs), have been identified. Two of the GLRaVs, GLRaV-1 and GLRaV-3, are included in the European certification scheme of propagation material. However, the flawed notion that GLRaV-3 is more frequent than GLRaV-1 and that all other GLRaVs are possibly not as relevant for GLRD, has until now precluded the development of specific serological and molecular detection assays and limited the scope of molecular characterization of the viruses known to be associated with the disease. Hence, few studies have addressed the phylodynamics of GLRaVs or even characterized the genetic structure of their natural populations. This generalized lack of molecular information, in turn underlie the deficient capacity to detect the viruses. The phylogenetic analyses were conducted on the basis of the heat shock protein 70 homologue (HSP70h) and the coat protein (CP) genes for GLRaV-1 and the HSP70h, the heat shock protein 90 homologue (HSP90h) and the CP genes for GLRaV-5. The data obtained for GLRaV-1 contributed 83 new CP sequences. This information was combined with previous analysis by other authors and used for the production of new polyclonal IgG, capable of detecting CP variants from all the phylogroups observed. Successful testing of this new tool included tissue print immunoblotting (TPIB) and in situ immunoassay (ISIA). The data obtained for GLRaV-5, contributed 61 new CP and 28 new HSP90h gene sequences. Eight phylogenetic groups were identified on the basis of the CP. Characterization of the genetic structure of the isolates revealed a higher diversity than previously reported and allowed the identification of dominant virus variants. For both GLRaV-1 and GLRaV-5, the effect of vegetative propagation on the virus transmission dynamics was addressed.

Os objetivos do presente estudo recaem sobre a investigação do papel do perfecionismo parental, bem como da perceção dos filhos sobre as expetativas, críticas e autoritarismo parental na transmissão intergeracional do perfecionismo. Participaram no estudo 156 estudantes universitários de ambos os sexos, com idades compreendidas entre os 18 e os 30 anos de idade, e os seus respetivos pais (pai e mãe). Os instrumentos aplicados aos filhos consistiram num Questionário Sociodemográfico, na Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale de Hewitt e Flett (1991b), na Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale de Frost, Marten, Lahart e Rosenblate (1990) e no Parental Authoritative Questionaire de Buri (1991). Os pais responderam à Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale de Hewitt e Flett (1991b). Os resultados indicaram uma correspondência entre as mesmas dimensões de perfecionismo de pais e filhos, apoiando a premissa de que a transmissão do perfecionismo se realiza por aprendizagem social, através da imitação das tendências perfecionistas dos pais. No entanto, verificou-se ainda correspondência entre dimensões diferentes de perfecionismo de pais e filhos, indicando a possibilidade de existirem outros mecanismos na transmissão intergeracional deste traço de personalidade. Especificamente, os resultados indicaram que as expetativas parentais apresentam um papel importante na transmissão de perfecionismo socialmente prescrito entre mãe e filho e parecem também contribuir para o desenvolvimento de PAO e PSP, mesmo sem que haja necessariamente perfecionismo parental. O estudo permitiu ainda analisar o papel do sexo na transmissão do perfecionismo, podendo constatar-se que tanto o cuidador principal como o cuidador do mesmo sexo contribuem para o desenvolvimento de perfecionismo dos filhos, dependendo das dimensões do perfecionismo que se avaliam, existindo situações em que se verifica o contributo simultâneo de ambos. O significado os resultados é discutido em termos das implicações dos fatores parentais para a transmissão intergeracional do perfecionismo.

Pelagic longliners targeting swordfish and tunas in oceanic waters regularly capture sharks as bycatch, including currently protected species as the bigeye thresher, Alopias superciliosus. Fifteen bigeye threshers were tagged with pop-up satellite archival tags (PSATs) in 2012-2014 in the tropical northeast Atlantic, with successful transmissions received from 12 tags for a total of 907 tracking days. Marked diel vertical movements were recorded on all specimens, with most of the daytime spent in deeper colder water (mean depth = 353 m, SD = 73; mean temperature = 10.7 °C, SD = 1.8) and nighttime spent in warmer water closer to the surface (mean depth = 72 m, SD = 54; mean temperature = 21.9 °C, SD = 3.7). The operating depth of the pelagic longline gear was measured with Minilog Temperature and Depth Recorders (TDRs), and the overlap with habitat utilization was calculated. Overlap is taking place mainly during the night and is higher for juveniles. The results presented herein can be used as inputs for Ecological Risk Assessments for bigeye threshers captured in oceanic tuna fisheries, and serve as a basis for efficient management and conservation of this vulnerable shark species.
