Its activity embraces advanced training at MSc and PhD level, development ofresearch projects and supplying analytical and consulting services to the community. This activity is carried out inthe installations of the Faculty of Marine & Environmental Science (FCMA) in Gambelas and at the CIACOMARfacility, Olhão.THE CENTRES STATUTORY ORGANISATION IS AS FOLLOWS:GENERAL COORDINATOR – Prof. Dr. Tomasz BoskiElected by the members of Scientific Committee for the period of 3 years. Responsible for the management,representation and other tasks delegated bay the Scientific Committee. The coordinator is supported by theScientific Secretary (Dr. Carlos Rocha) and the administrative secretary (Zélia Coelho).SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE - composed on 31.12.2001 of 19 PhD members. The Scientific Committee defines theguidelines for the development of the Centre, decides on the allocation of financial and material means and on theadmission of the new members.ADVISORY COUNCIL - composed of 4 senior scientists from foreign research and academic institutions. Theirprincipal role is to advise the Centre about its policies, and in ways to overcome any existing constraints.Members:Prof. Dr. Michael Collins (Sedimentary Dynamics) - University of Southampton – UKDr. William Langston (Ecotoxicology and Marine Chemistry) - Plymouth Marine Laboratory – UKProf. Dr. Jorma Kuparinen ( Marine Biogeochemical Cycles) - University of Helsínki – SFProf Dr. J.

INSTALAÇÕES E INFRAESTRUTURA ................DESCRIÇÃO:<strong>CIMA</strong> infrastructure embraces the facilities at the main UALG campus and in CIACOMAR facility in Olhão, ca. 20kmfrom the main campus at Gambelas. The space allocation to the Tematic Groups (TG’s) is following:TG IThe research activities of this group are carried out in CIACOMAR facility. The 200m2 workspace is equipped withcomputers, scanners, printers, and plotters and possesses a reasonably well-equipped laboratory, containingequipment for the analysis of marine sediment and water samples, particularly grain size analysis, such as sieves,ovens, pipettes, filters, scales etc. Fully automated settling tube is operating since 2001.There is a range of oceanographic and sedimentological equipment for near-shore and marine field studies, suchas a variety of current metres (e.g. ADP’s, RCM’s), pressure transducers, CTD’s, echo sounders, tide gauges, atotal station, sediment traps, and a variety of other material. A 7m research vessel is moored, in the port of VilaReal de Santo Antonio. For transport to and from field sites a small diesel van is used.TG IIThe laboratory space is organized according to the division of the research in 3 subgroups (topic lines).The working space of the Sedimentary Geochemistry & Quaternary Geology subgroup comprises 3 separatelaboratories totaling 170 m2.In the first, at the basement level, all preparatory work (including description) on sediment cores is <strong>do</strong>ne.In the second , at the basement level, part of computer work not <strong>do</strong>ne by means of individual PC’S is carried out,using the local GEOCIENCIAS network.In the third, at the first floor of the main faculty building the following analyses are currently <strong>do</strong>ne: electrodeprofiling of sediment cores, granulometric analyses, foraminifera analyses.Instruments in use: 2 microscopes with digital imaging system, Laser Granulometer, E-h, P-H and specificelectrode setup, micropermeability sensing, centrifuge, liofilizer and planetary mill.The working space of the subgroup concerned with the man-iduced changes of the environment consists ofchemical laboratory equipped with: palorograph, uv-vis spectrometer and HPLC chromatograph.The working space of the subgroup dealing with microbial ecology embraces a 75m2 modular laboratory, equippedwith : centrifuges, autoclaves, inversion & binocular microscopes, micro-elisa system, filtration ramps,refrigerators, etc.TG III and IVMost of the research in these two groups is <strong>do</strong>ne by means of 5 computers with large array of software packagesinstalled. Group III owns current meters and CTD’s which are used during the cruises.TG VApprox. 50 m2 of laboratorial area at the basement level of the main faculty building,equipped with:Analytical Equipment: HPLC, MicroELISA, TOC Analyser, High Resolution Turbiditimeter, Fotometer,Thermoreactor, Conductimeters, pH/mV Meter, Oxitop (BOD Measurement).Ion chromatograph (installed in <strong>CIMA</strong> TGV lab., but belonging to CVRM/IST).Lab & Pilot Units: MF/UF (lab), MF/UF/NF/RO (lab, pilot), DGF (lab), Jar Test apparatus (lab), C/F/S (pilot),Sedimentation column (pilot). Construction work in 2002/2003 will interrupt activities in this laboratory.5
