Eugénio de Andrade (1923-2005) é um dos mais celebrados e traduzidos poetas portugueses contemporâneos, com mais de trinta volumes de poesia, e vários prémios nacionais e internacionais. Como poeta atento e turista curioso, Andrade viajou com frequência para Espanha, França, Itália e Grécia, ao encontro de outros escritores (Vicente Aleixandre, Dámaso Alonso, etc.), e visitou diversas cidades e locais históricos. Recorrentemente, menciona Madrid, Valverde del Fresno, Roma, Delfos, Tebas, Súnion, Veneza, Brindisi, Corfu, etc. Em resultado destas viagens, existem, na sua poesia, poemas em prosa e crónicas, abundantes referências aos países, cultura e paisagem natural do Mediterrâneo. Eugénio de Andrade captura poeticamente o ―genius loci‖, realçando os laços entre os povos, a fauna, a flora e o clima. Desde os primeiros escritos até ao seu último livro, o poeta coerentemente apresenta uma ―visão mediterrânica‖. Recorrendo às suas obras e a excertos de algumas das entrevistas que concedeu, este artigo exemplifica, analisa e avalia estes aspectos, explorando uma faceta menos conhecida da obra eugeniana.

Prescribed burning impact on forest soil properties – a fuzzy boolean nets approach

The Portuguese northern forests are often and severely affected by wildfires during the Summer season. These occurrences significantly affect and negatively impact all ecosystems, namely soil, fauna and flora. In order to reduce the occurrences of natural wildfires, some measures to control the availability of fuel mass are regularly implemented. Those preventive actions concern mainly prescribed burnings and vegetation pruning. This work reports on the impact of a prescribed burning on several forest soil properties, namely pH, soil moisture, organic matter content and iron content, by monitoring the soil self-recovery capabilities during a one year span. The experiments were carried out in soil cover over a natural site of Andaluzitic schist, in Gramelas, Caminha, Portugal, which was kept intact from prescribed burnings during a period of four years. Soil samples were collected from five plots at three different layers (0–3, 3–6 and 6–18) 1 day before prescribed fire and at regular intervals after the prescribed fire. This paper presents an approach where Fuzzy Boolean Nets (FBN) and Fuzzy reasoning are used to extract qualitative knowledge regarding the effect of prescribed fire burning on soil properties. FBN were chosen due to the scarcity on available quantitative data. The results showed that soil properties were affected by prescribed burning practice and were unable to recover their initial values after one year.

Soil attributes dynamics evaluation after prescribed burning practice in northwestern Portugal forest

The Portuguese northern forests are often and severely affected by wildfires during the summer season. These occurrences affect significant and rudely all ecosystems, namely soil, fauna and flora. Preventive actions such as prescribed burnings and clear-cut logging are frequently used and have showed a significant reduction of the natural wildfires occurrences. In Portugal, and due to some technical and operational conditions, prescribed burnings in forests are the most common preventive action used to reduce the existing fuel hazard. The overall impacts of this preventive action on Portuguese ecosystems are complex and not fully understood. This work reports to the study of a prescribed burning impact in soil chemical properties, namely pH, humidity and organic matter, by monitoring the soil self-recovery capacity. The experiments were carried out in soil cover over a natural site of Andaluzitic schist, in Gramelas, Caminha, Portugal, who was able to maintain itself intact from prescribed burnings from four years. The composed soil samples were collected from five plots at three different layers (0-3cm, 3-6cm and 6-18cm) 1 day before prescribed fire and after the prescribed fire. The results have shown that the dynamic equilibrium in soil was affected significantly.

Os jardins reais na Assíria - uma reprodução idealizada da natureza

As fontes literárias da Mesopotâmia, no período neo-assírio, particularmente os anais e as inscrições reais a partir do séc. IX a.C, assim como os baixos-relevos gravados nas paredes dos palácios desta época, reflectem um acentuado interesse pela fauna e flora, bem como pela representação da natureza. A Assíria constrói uma hegemonia política e militar que abrange quase todo o Próximo Oriente antigo e que se mantém até finais do séc. VII a.C^ Os Assírios tomam contacto com uma geografia física diferente daquela que conheciam e a sua curiosidade repercute-se na arte e na literatura. As referências a paisagens diferentes, a espécies vegetais exóticas e a animais invulgares, a uma natureza que impõe dificuldades à progressão dos exércitos e, consequentemente, à expansão da ordem assíria, encontram eco numa literatura e numa arte que têm claramente uma função ideológica e política.

A tutela preventiva da responsabilidade civil

The contemporary society is characterized by high risks. Today, the prevention of damages is as important as compensation. This is due to the fact that the potentiality of several damages is not in line with compensation, because often compensation proves to be impossible. Civil law should be at the service of the citizens, which explains that the heart of the institution of non-contractual liability has gradually moved towards the victim's protection. It is requested from Tort law an active attitude that seeks to avoid damages, reducing its dimension and frequency. The imputation by risk proves to be necessary and useful in the present context as it demonstrates the ability to model behaviors, functioning as a warning for agents engaged in hazardous activities. Economically, it seeks to prevent socially inefficient behaviors. Strict liability assumes notorious importance as a deterrent and in the dispersion of damage by society. The paradigm of the imputation founded on fault has proved insufficient for the effective protection of the interests of the citizens, particularly if based in an anachronistic vision of the concept of fault. Prevention arises in several areas, especially in environmental liability, producer liability and liability based on infringement of copyright and rights relating to the personality. To overcome the damage as the gauge for compensation does not inevitably mean the recognition of the punitive approach. Prevention should not be confused with reactive/punitive objectives. The deterrence of unlawful conduct is not subordinated to punishment.

Distribución y concentración de la merluza peruana y su fauna acompañante en otoño 2003: Crucero BIC Olaya 0305-06

El crucero demersal BIC Olaya 0305-06 se realizó entre el 20 de mayo y 18 de junio 2003, para determinar la distribución y abundancia de la merluza (Merluccius gayi peruanus) y su fauna acompañante mediante el uso simultáneo del método de área barrida y el método acústico. El equipo utilizado en la evaluación acústica fue el ecosonda científico EK500 de 38 y 120 kHz de frecuencia. Las principales observaciones fueron: (1) La merluza se detectó desde 3°29’S hasta aproximadamente 7°45’S (Chicama) con predominio de áreas continuas y densas. (2) La abundancia estimada fue 120.000 t. (3) Latitudinalmente la mayor biomasa se encontró en la subárea D (6-7°S), con 67.000 t. (4) La mayor abundancia se registró a 20 mn de la costa con 54.000 t. (5) Además de la merluza, otra especie que se presentó en concentraciones interesantes fue el bereche con barbo (Larimus pacificus), cuya distribución casi continua fue desde el extremo norte del litoral hasta Paita compartiendo en muchos casos el hábitat con la merluza.
