- Caraterização morfológica e físico-química de diferentes cultivares de cereja produzidas em ResendePublication . Rodrigues, Nuno; Moura, Carina Manuela Machado de; Madureira, Marta; Rodrigues, Isabel; Martins, Vanessa Fernandes; Ramos, Ana Cristina; Ferreira, Armando; Sousa, Beatriz Andreia de Lima; Pereira, J.A.A região de Resende é uma região tradicional de produção de cereja que nos últimos anos tem apostado em novas plantações e no desenvolvimento da cultura. São várias as cultivares de cereja possíveis de encontrar. Neste sentido, com o presente trabalho pretendeu-se proceder à caraterização morfológica e físico-química de frutos de cinco cultivares, tendo sido recolhidas 29 amostras de cerca de 1 kg de cereja, de diferentes produtores e de diferentes cultivares, nomeadamente: Van (9 amostras), Durona (7 amostras), Lapin (7 amostras), Summit (4 amostras) e Sunburst (2 amostras). De cada amostra foram retirados aleatoriamente 20 frutos e em cada fruto foi avaliada ao nível morfológico a massa do fruto (com e sem pedúnculo) (g), comprimento do fruto (mm), diâmetro máximo do fruto (mm); diâmetro mínimo do fruto (mm), massa do caroço (g) e relação polpa caroço. Em termos físico-químicos avaliou-se a firmeza, cor, teor de sólidos solúveis totais e acidez titulável. Os resultados indicam a existência de diferenças assinaláveis entre as cultivares em estudo. Assim, a Summit foi a cultivar que apresentou frutos mais compridos (20,52 mm ± 0,99 mm), maior diâmetro 24,94 mm ± 1,34 mm, e a variedade onde se registaram os frutos mais pesados (7,24 g ± 1,09 g). De uma maneira geral o teor em sólidos solúveis totais oscilou entre 12,79% e 16,91%, sendo os valores mais elevados registados na Summit e os valores inferiores na Durona. Ao nível da acidez, firmeza e cor também se registaram diferenças entre cultivares.
- Character development through co-creation process in a twitch communityPublication . Sobreira, Ana; Pinto, Ana Lúcia Jesus; Madureira, MartaWithin the scope of Illustration and Animation, we intend to explore how practical and creative work can be developed from the influences of other individuals, considering their imagery and creative points of view. Widespread access to new technologies has made it possible to communicate and share our thoughts and ideas easily, where the platform Twitch has allowed us to work on what we propose. In this article we address the potential of Twitch as a mediating platform to develop ideas for characters, while exploring concepts related to co-creation. This co-creation work resulted in the exploration of those ideas launched by the followers in sketches and illustrated digital work. This research was part of a study to an animated short project developed during master’s degree of illustration and animation. We have realized the value of sharing the artistic process online, due to the real-time development of the ideas of different stakeholders; and this co-creation methods resulted in the exploration of the ideas launched by the followers, in sketches and illustrated digital work. Although the project varied due to the diversity of the participants, brainstorming remained constant, which made it possible to explore concepts such as creativity and integration.
- Co-creation as a creative strategy in the pre-production of an animation film in a Twitch communityPublication . Sobreira, Ana; Pinto, Ana Lúcia Jesus; Madureira, MartaThis paper exposes the development process, through co-creation strategies, of the pre-production of an animated film, featuring Twitch.tv, a video live streaming service, as the medium platform. Widespread accessibility to new technologies facilitates communication and sharing of ideas in different areas. The Twitch.tv platform allows the display of any artwork and promotes an easier communication between users in real time and through a set of options, for example, a chat box which enables the sharing of new ideas and experiences among members of a community. Exploring this potential, in order to stimulate greater creativity and find innovative results, we propose the development of an animated film through co-creation methods as a way to find innovative processes for an animation project. A twitch channel was created and some of its users self-proposed to cooperate in the author's animation project. This experience established connections with individuals from different areas, like different fields of arts. The method was based on the dialogue between the author and the users, who expressed themselves through the author's channel chat on Twitch. The ideas launched were subsequently voted on and selected by the majority of participants, which led to pre-production final results.

- Community of Syrphids (Diptera: Syrphidae) in mediterranean perennial cropsPublication . Madureira, Marta; Pereira, J.A.; Rodrigues, IsabelSyrphids are holometabolic insects that provide several ecosystem services. In Mediterranean perennial crops, these insects play a fundamental role in the biological control of pests, in the pollination of agricultural crops and adjacent vegetation , and in the decomposition of organic matter, while the inter-rows provide shelter for other natural enemies, thus favouring predation and parasitism of crop pests. However, the ecosystem services provided by these insects or other arthropods have been compromised due to the simplification of the landscape, reduction of seminatural habitats, and increase in urbanization and agriculture. Therefore, understanding how the surrounding landscape of the crops and ground cover vegetation composition affects the syrphids is essential to implementing strategies to promote the presence of the Syrphids in the Mediterranean perennial crops and busting its ecosystem services. For that, this work was divided into two parts. In the first (Chapter 3), the Syrphidae community in Portuguese vineyards was described, and the response of the most abundant species, Sphaerophoria scripta Linnaeus, 1758, and Melanostoma mellinum Linnaeus, 1758, to the landscape composition and configuration within a gradient of distances (500, 1000, and 2000 m) from the sampled vineyards was studied. And in the second (Chapter 4), the flowering plants present in olive groves' vegetation cover were described, and these plant families' effect on the abundance of S. scripta was studied. Our results in vineyards showed that the presence of seminatural habitats and other crops in the surrounding landscape increased the abundance of S. scripta and M. mellinum, at the largest distance. In contrast, the artificial territory, olive orchards, and vineyards reduced M. mellinum at some of the buffers. In olive groves, 90 plant species belonging to 20 families were identified in the ground cover vegetation of olive groves. Asteraceae was the dominant flowering family, followed by Poaceae. The flowering plants of the families Campanulaceae, Asteraceae, Orobanchaceae, and Plantaginaceae in the ground cover vegetation promoted the abundance of S. scripta in the olive grove. On the other hand, flowering plants of the families Poaceae and Polygonaceae negatively affect the abundance of this syrphid. Increasing seminatural habitats in the surrounding landscape and the percentage of plant families more attractive in the adjacent vegetation and/or inter-rows in the Mediterranean perennial crops may favour syrphid abundance.
- Diversidade e abundância de Sirfídeos (Diptera: Syrphidae) em pomares de limoeiros, amendoeiras e vinhas no Norte de PortugalPublication . Madureira, Marta; Rodrigues, Isabel; Pereira, J.A.Os sirfídeos (Diptera: Syrphidae) são insetos holometabólicos que no estado adulto são polinizadores, alimentando-se de néctar e pólen, mas no estado larvar há espécies que atuam como predadores vorazes de algumas pragas agrícolas, e outras têm uma função saprófaga. Por tal, os sirfídeos são importantes nos ecossistemas agrários pela sua ação como agentes de proteção biológica, polinizadores e indicadores da qualidade do ecossistema. Neste sentido, o conhecimento da sua abundância e diversidade nos ecossistemas agrários é de grande importância. No presente trabalho estudou-se a diversidade e a abundância de sirfídeos (Diptera: Syrphidae) em pomares de limoeiros, amendoeiras e vinhas localizados na região Norte de Portugal. As amostragens foram realizadas em 2018, em julho, agosto e outubro, no coberto vegetal e na copa das árvores com recurso a uma rede entomológica. O material recolhido foi levado para o laboratório onde se procedeu a separação e identificação até ao mais baixo nível taxonómico possível. No total foram recolhidos 186 indivíduos adultos que pertencem a cinco espécies diferentes, nomeadamente Eupeodes corollae (Fabricius, 1794), Melanostoma mellinum (Linnaeus, 1758), Paragus quadrifasciatus (Meigen, 1822), Sphaerophoria rueppelli (Wiedemann, 1830) e Sphaerophoria scripta (Linnaeus, 1758). Sphaerophoria scripta foi a espécie mais abundante em todos os agroecossistemas amostrados, representando mais de 54% dos indivíduos amostrados. A maior abundância de sirfídeos foi registada nas vinhas (110), seguindose os amendoais (49) e por fim os pomares de limoeiros (17). A maior abundância e diversidade de sirfídeos foi observada no mês de julho no coberto vegetal, com exceção das vinhas, onde a maior abundância e diversidade se registou nesse período na copa da videira. O baixo número e diversidade de sirfídeos recolhidos poderá estar relacionado com a época em que ocorreram as amostragens pelo que esse período será alargado em futuros trabalhos.
- entre tu e eu / between you and I: showcasing the potential of fanzines as an artifact of expression and authorship within the theme of feminine sexuality and self-discoveryPublication . Pisco, Catarina; Pinto, Ana Lúcia Jesus; Madureira, MartaThis paper explores and showcases the level of experimentation that fanzines provide to authors through the fanzine collection “entre tu e eu” (“between you and I”) and how fanzines can be transformed into the au- thor’s voice to convey messages in a way no other method can. With a D.I.Y (do it yourself ) approach, fanzines are objects that enable authors to explore them as they wish, without rules or constraints these artifacts provide a me- dium where limits, themes, graphics, and storytelling, can be tested at their full potential without the approval of a second party. As such, “entre tu e eu” is a collection of three fanzines, each working as a way for the author to confide in and to prove the flexibility that fanzines provide within the theme of feminine sexuality and self-discovery given that each fanzine offers a different sub-theme, format, graphism, and color palette. While being very different from each other, the collection conveys that each fanzine is part of the same collection, seizing the opportunity to experiment with the printing method of risograph as one of the key elements between them.

- Fanzine as an artifact of expression and authorship: feminine sexuality and self-discoveryPublication . Pisco, Catarina; Pinto, Ana Lúcia Jesus; Madureira, MartaFanzines are artifacts with a D.I.Y (do it yourself ) nature created by an individual or a group of creators with unlimited freedom during the process of its making and for this reason, it is possible unveil the authors due to their formal expression and chosen thematic. Since fanzines permit unlimited liberty to the authors they serve as an instrument of self-discovery to explore how they want to express themselves, be it through comics, illustration, photography, clipping, writing, poetry, or a mix between media. This paper, connected with a master’s work project, aims to explore and understand the contribution of fanzines to the exploration of the author within the context of feminine sexuality and self-discovery.
