Na Península Antártica, o aquecimento significativo desde os anos 1950 gera mudanças nos ecossistemas. Os projetos #PERMANTAR e #VEGETANTAR da #ULisboa investigam o impacto desse aquecimento na temperatura do permafrost e na vegetação. O PERMANTAR mantém observatórios na região ocidental da Península Antártica para monitorar o permafrost. O VEGETANTAR usa VANTs para mapear a vegetação, auxiliando na criação de mapas temáticos. Os alunos Joana Baptista e Vasco Miranda apresentarão a relação desses projetos com suas pesquisas e experiências nas campanhas antárticas em 24 de outubro pelas 17H30 na sala de conferências Jorge Gaspar no Instituto de Geografia e Ordenamento do Território (#IGOT).
PhD student Joana Baptista from IGOT-ULisboa arrived in Amsterdam for the 6th ITCH workshop, held at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. Over the course of five days, this workshop aims to discuss recent developments and the needs of the model, as well as the work that has been developed.
