Three-hourly forecast maps of accumulated precipitation in mm/3h for the Iberian Peninsula, generated with the AROME model. The maps are generated twice a day, at 00UTC and 12UTC, with forecasts of the following 48 hours.
Three-hourly forecast maps of total column water vapour in kg m-2 in the Atlantic region, generated from ECMWF data twice a day, at 00UTC and 12UTC, with forecasts every 3 hours of the current day from 00h to the next 120 hours.
Within Portugal's National Biological Sampling Project (PNAB) a set of activities are conducted in the collection, management and use of biological data, collected from the registered commercial fleet in mainland Portugal (fisheries-dependent data) and several research surveys (independent fisheries data). These activities allow the assessment of the state of fishery resources, population structure, distribution and abundance of resources, diversity and dynamics of biological communities associated with the fishery resources and biological studies (growth, reproduction).The spring acoustic surveys are usually held in April/May with the ship "Noruega" and cover the Portuguese continental waters and the Spanish waters of the Gulf of Cadiz, between 20 and 200m deep.
Three-hourly forecast maps of cloud cover in percentage at three levels (low, medium and high) and total cloud cover for the Iberian Peninsula, generated with the AROME model. The maps are generated twice a day, at 00UTC and 12UTC, with forecasts of the following 48 hours.

Microbiological monitoring of bivalve mollusc production areas in mainland Portugal, since the year 2014, performed by quantification of Escherichia coli in meat and liquid intravalvular live bivalve, according to the sample planning. These analyzes are part of the National monitoring system of bivalve mollusc production areas and are considered in the classification of these areas and in the decision-making relative to their status. The data is collected according to the Regulation (EC) No 854/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 and the rules set out in Decree No. 1421/2006 of the Ministries of Economy and Innovation and Agriculture, Rural Development and Fisheries of 21 December 2006.
Three-hourly forecast maps of mean sea level pressure in Pascal in the Atlantic region, generated from ECMWF data twice a day, at 00UTC and 12UTC, with forecasts every 3 hours of the current day from 00h to the next 120 hours.

This project aims to characterize the evolution of the coastline during the Quaternary and discern what were the contributions to this evolution: 1) neotectonic, 2) eustatic variations and 3) sedimentary transport; for this purpose was selected as study area the coastal stretch between Cabo da Roca (~ 38 46'N) and the village of Comporta (~ 38 20'N).
