- Applicaton of Digital Shoreline Analysis System (DSAS) for analyzing sandy coast dynamics in Essaouira, MoroccoPublication . Khouz, Abdellah; Trindade, Jorge; Oliveira, Sérgio; El Bchari, F.; Bougadir, BlaidCoastlines change research plays a crucial role in understanding the evolution and ensuring effective risk management. This is essential for minimizing impacts on the environment and society. Our study aims to assess the coastal dynamics of sandy systems in Essaouira. By employing advanced techniques such as DSAS and GIS, we aim to analyze shoreline changes, erosion rates, and susceptibility to sand movement. The insights gained from our investigation into the sandy coastal system will provide valuable input for making informed decisions regarding territorial management.
- Geomorphological coastal slope instability and suscepbility mapping in Safi, MoroccoPublication . Khouz, Abdellah; Trindade, Jorge; Oliveira, S. Cruz de; Garcia, Ricardo Alexandre Cardoso; Elbchari, Fatima; Chaibi, M.; Bougadir, BlaidRocky cliff coasts constitute approximately half of the world’s coastline and support human activities and diverse ecosystems but are prone to landslides, a key geomorphological process. This study assesses mass movement susceptibility along Safi's coast in Morocco by analyzing 297 mass movements using topographic, geological, and hydrological predisposing factors according to the information value model. The susceptibility model revealed that 40.62% of Safi's rocky coast is highly susceptible to slope instability.
- Análise da inundação em zonas urbanas expostas ao aumento do nível do mar em Portugal ContinentalPublication . Silva, Andreia Alves; Trindade, Jorge; Rocha, JorgeNeste trabalho foi caracterizada a exposição das comunidades urbanas em Portugal continental à subida do nível do mar. A metodologia consistiu na determinação do nível máximo da água durante tempestades prevista para cada uma das células sedimentares da costa portuguesa, e complementarmente, a evolução do tecido urbano. Os resultados obtidos indicam que, em 2100, 86 km² sejam diretamente afetados por inundações costeiras, dos quais cerca de 1/3 possam ser áreas urbanizadas.
- Best practices for business process automation description: a case studyPublication . Silvares, Catarina; São Mamede, Henrique; Costa, JoãoOrganizations in competitive, regulated environments must enhance business processes for efficiency, quality, and compliance while minimizing risks and costs. Process automation solutions play a vital role in achieving these goals, though the variety of tool descriptions creates challenges for compatibility and interoperability. This hinders innovation and competitiveness. The adoption of standard specifications or widely accepted best practices for automation descriptions offers a solution. This research aims to identify a set of best practices to guide process-oriented organizations in evaluating their current automation practices, ensuring alignment and fostering improvements in business process automation.
