个人简介
I was born in 1952 and my professional career began by the first field study on the Iberian lynx (Lynx pardinus) in Portugal, and followed with studies on diurnal forest birds of prey. This included the ecology and demography of the osprey (Pandion haliaetus) breeding population and a long-term multidisciplinary study of the tree-nesting Bonelli’s eagle (Aquila fasciata) of Southern Portugal. I’ve also been following the return of the Iberian Imperial eagle (Aquila adalberti) in Portugal, decades after its extinction, witnessed by me in the 1970-80s. I coordinated two multiannual conservation projects, of the tree-nesting Bonell's eagle in southern Portugal and the reintroduction of the osprey in the country. I also contributed to the creation of some protected areas, namely the Serra da Malcata NR, the Costa Vicentina NP and several N2000 classified areas. One of my major current interests is the unravelling of large-scale demographic and evolutionary processes, e.g. the evolutionary history of the Palearctic buzzards (Buteo spp.), the worldwide phylogeography of frigatebirds (Fregata spp.) and the colonisation of the Atlantic (Macaronesian) archipelagos by the Monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus), which I’ve also monitored throughout mainland Portugal.
In Cabo Verde, I’ve worked in the study and conservation of some raptor species, namely the resident osprey population and the critically endangered Egyptian vulture (Neophron percnopterus). In Guinea-Bissau, I worked as an IUCN Technical Assistant in 2002, and collaborated in 2013 in an assessment of the ecological and socio-economic impact of the expansion of cashew-nut production, a major environmental problem in the country. My present work is focused on afrotropical biodiversity surveys in poorly known areas, especially Guinea-Bissau, where I aim to stimulate the existing partnership between CIBIO and the IBAP (Institute of Biodiversity and Protected Areas) in conducting biodiversity research and conservation assessments. I’m currently leading a study on the local Forest elephant (Loxodonta cyclopis) population, while preparing surveys of other iconic large-bodied mammals and collaborating in several activities related to biodiversity.
