inshore/offshore gradients of imposex and organotin contamination in nassarius reticulatus (l.) along the portuguese coast.	imposex and organotin (ot) tissue contamination of the netted whelk nassarius reticulatus (l.) were assessed in the continental shelves around the main estuaries of the central coast of portugal (lisbon: tagus estuary; setúbal: sado estuary) and the main coastal lagoon in the southern of portugal (faro: ria formosa). pollution levels were higher in areas of more intense boat traffic and shipyard activities and imposex showed a clear decreasing gradient from the estuaries to the offshore, in rela ...	2008	18501385
distribution and structure of the upper sublittoral macrobenthic communities of tróia sand beaches (setúbal, portugal) and their relationship with environmental factors.	the present study dealt with the spatial and temporal variability of the distribution of the upper sublittoral benthic macrofauna of the tróia peninsula sand beaches and its relationship with abiotic environmental factors. the existence of a relationship between the data set of macrobenthic species distribution and community structure in the sado estuary (432 individual samples) and the environmental factors in analysis was investigated. morpho-sedimentary data analysis revealed an environmental ...	2010	20383379
