Henrique Cabral   

Main field of research is Marine Ecology. First research projects focused on the ecology of several fisheries resources. Following Ph.D., estuarine ecology and particularly the ecology of juvenile fish became the main research topic. Nowadays, his research stands on three domains, ecology of coastal systems, fisheries, and marine conservation, and two transversal themes, methodological comparisons and assessment of human impacts, as follows:

Fish ecology

Coastal systems ecology

  • Patterns in habitat use

  • Nursery function

  • Inter-habitat and inter-estuary connectivity

  • Population connectivity

  • Modelling at several spatial and temporal scales

  • Estuarine fish assemblages at large geographical scales

  • Fish assemblages in highly modified habitats

Fisheries management

Marine conservation

  • Biology of resources and stock status

  • Population structure

  • Regional fisheries

  • Fisheries impacts

  • Fisheries and climate change

  • Large scale analyses: patterns, impacts, indicators, resources status

  • Modelling at several spatial and temporal scales

  • Fish consumption

  • Fish quality

  • Marine Protected Areas

  • Ecological quality indicators

  • Fitting scales to conservation priorities

  • Conservation priorities

  • Sensitivity, resilience and status of marine habitats and ecosystems

  • Human pressures

  • Social and economical issues of ocean conservation

  • Fisheries regional strategical plans

Comparison of different methodological and analytical perspectives

Human impacts assessment
