Introduction
I'm a Phd Student affiliated to the School of Agriculture (ISA) of the University of Lisbon, PT and visiting PhD scholar at the University of Montpellier, FR within the DeSIRA-Malmon project: “Mangroves, mangrove rice and mangrove people - sustainably improving rice production, ecosystems and livelihoods” [FOOD/2019/412-700, DeSIRA_GB] funded by the EU. My PhD project focuses on small-scale mangrove fishing in coastal Guinea-Bissau.

The environmental DNA (eDNA) technique characterizes spatio-temporal fish diversity patterns along estuarine habitats, such as hard-to-reach mangroves, yet it has rarely been applied in West Africa. In this study conducted over two seasons (dry and rainy) in coastal Guinea Bissau, fish eDNA was extracted from water samples collected in three habita...
Biodiversity loss, habitat degradation, globalization, and societal transformations are challenging rural, and especially coastal communities in Guinea-Bissau where mangrove-dependent livelihoods are exposed to increased vulnerability. The Diola, traditional farmer-fishermen of the northern island-villages, have witnessed swift societal changes fol...
Biomonitoring fish species losses in data-deficient estuaries of West Africa can be facilitated by consulting small-scale fishermen as on-the-spot sentinels. Children are often prominent fishing actors in rural societies, but scientific studies looking at their ethnoichthyological knowledge are lacking. This study examines childhood fish knowledge...
While escape responses are shown to differ in areas with varying levels of human disturbance, it is not known to what extent these reactions depend on the composition of local species assemblages. We investigated variation in three flight response metrics for the invasive Canada Goose (Branta canadensis) in Belgium in three locations with different...
