- Phosphorus concentration and speciation in urban wastewater for potential recoveryPublication . Santos, A. F.; Gando-Fereira, L. M.; Quina, M. J.; Alvarenga, PaulaPhosphorus (P) scarcity, jointly with eutrophication problems and water shortage, are forcing urban wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) to redirect their focus to nutrient recov-ery and treated water reuse. However, before implementing any recovery approach, it is neces-sary to understand the problem and its variability. In this scope, this work aims to collect data from different WWTP to assess P concentrations, speciation, and variability in urban wastewater. The analysis revealed high levels of total P, before and after anaerobic digestion, and in the sludge dewatering water (100-400 mg P/L), with about 60-80% of total P in the solu-ble form. Also, in the best-case scenario, soluble reactive P (orthophosphate) accounts for over 50% of soluble total P. Preliminary results showed that it would be possible to recover over 100 kg P/day in a WWTP with about 160,000 p.e.

- From historical research to urban ecology: A new perspective on the evolution of the landscape art in LisbonPublication . Cunha, Ana Raquel; Romeiras, Maria Manuel; Brilhante, Miguel; Rego, Francisco Castro; Soares, Ana LuísaLisbon has unique characteristics and hosts a higher average biodiversity than other European cities. Its Mediterranean climate allows the coexistence of different tree species, and the contact with other geographies and cultures resulting from the Portuguese discoveries contributed to the botanical richness of species from around the world. This study focused on the 1929 and 2014 tree inventories, which allowed a comparative analysis of the tree collections in Lisbon’s gardens, revealing similarities and singularities and tracing their evolution over time. Tree abundance and species richness increased between the two dates, as did the number of green areas in Lisbon. This tendency is explained by the introduction of Landscape Architecture in Portugal in the mid-20th century when landscape architects first became part of the Lisbon municipality; the Repartição de Arborização e Jardinagem was then created, launching an innovative period for the town’s green spaces, where aesthetics were articulated with contemporary landscape concepts such as ecology. The present study allowed us to assess the evolution of almost a century of plantations, providing tools to prepare the future of Lisbon’s urban ecology. Moreover, it significantly contributes to the understanding of Lisbon’s historical gardens and parks as a valuable natural and cultural heritage.
- Lisbon city gardeners, from horticulture to Landscape Architecture (1840–1960)Publication . Castel-Branco, Cristina; Cunha, Ana Raquel; Soares, Ana LuísaIn a growing problematic urban environment, we believe in the high value of urban parks and gardens and the role of qualified professionals in charge of their up-keeping. The complexity that entails the training of landscape architects and the experience in garden maintenance triggered the research on the agents, the periods, and the results expressed through 120-years (1840–1960) of Lisbon’s gardens management. The research was carried out by different experiments and used the Jardim Botânico da Ajuda and the Tapada da Ajuda as case studies, where the authors have collected experience on garden management and restauration during the last decades. The method started by reviewing the bibliography on the subject: Lisbon gardens, gardeners, maintenance structures, and decision-makers. The procedure of this study involved collecting data from different works: compiling information about people involved in garden-making, studying, and maintaining since 1840s, and who stood out for their practice and excellence through different periods of the 19th and 20th centuries. A holistic approach yielded three major requirements for the success of gardens—experience/instruction, dissemination, and transmission—which were the attributes of the 22 “gardenists” identified in this study. The value of their legacies for Lisbon gardens is the key focus of this work and led us to identify the profession of botanists/horticulturists, head gardeners, agronomists, foresters, painters, and landscape architects as contributors for the dynamic periods of the gardens movement.
