Tanto nos cursos de graduação, quanto nos de pós-graduação, mestrado ou mesmo doutorado torna-se necessária a monografia como requisito parcial para obtenção do diploma ou da certificação. Com a intenção de oferecer ao público universitário um livro que atenda às dificuldades com as quais o estudante se defronta quando é solicitado a construir idéias acerca de temas relevantes, elaborou-se, em detalhes, este livro, para que sirva como fonte de estudo sobre os diferentes tipos de produção científica, delimitando suas características. Este livro está dividido em tópicos. No primeiro, trabalha-se a o que é ciência e o sentido de neutralidade. No segundo, são detalhados os diferentes tipos de conhecimento. No terceiro, os requisitos necessários para elaborar diversos tipos de trabalhos científicos são detalhados a saber: o relatório, o resumo, o informe científico, o artigo científico, a resenha e a monografia. No quarto, aborda-se a pesquisa, apontando a natureza do trabalho científico e a ética. Apresenta-se ainda neste tópico, os diferentes tipos de pesquisa e a forma de elaboração de um projeto de pesquisa. No quinto tópico são apresentadas diferentes maneiras de manusear a bibliografia consultada, orientando na elaboração de fichamento. Os dois últimos tópicos, que encerram o livro, especificam as questões relacionadas aos aspectos gráficos e materiais do trabalho científico (organização dos originais, paginação etc.) e as referências, apresentando em detalhes como são registradas as fontes, segundo as normas da ABNT vigentes.

This guide presents the egg and larval descriptions of 100 species of fishes belonging to 55 families, which are most likely to be present in plankton samples collected in the continental shelf and oceanic waters of the Western Mediterranean Sea. The guide is structured in two parts. The first introductory part describes the different applications of ichthyoplankton studies in fisheries research, the main sampling strategies, methods and gears, the early life history of fishes and how to identify them. A brief historical account of ichthyoplankton identification studies in the Mediterranean Sea is also provided. The second part of the guide contains the identification sheets of the species. Each species sheet includes the following information: illustration of the adult fish and information on its habitat and spawning season; description of the main features useful towards identifying the egg, yolk sac and larval stage of each fish species; illustrations and (when available) photos of the different life stages.

This guide presents the egg and larval descriptions of 150 species of fishes belonging to 57 families, which are most likely to be present in plankton samples collected in the continental shelf and oceanic waters off northwest Africa. The guide is structured in two parts. The first introductory part describes the different applications of ichthyoplankton studies in fisheries research and management, and fish population ecology, the main sampling strategies, methods and gears, and the problems related to sample representativeness. It also describes the early life history of fishes, and how to identify them. A brief description of the hydrography of the study area is also presented. The second part of the guide features the species identification sheets. Each species sheet includes the following information: an illustration of the adult fish and information on its distribution, habitat, spawning season, and meristic characters; a description of the main features useful towards identifying the egg, yolk-sac and larval stages; and illustrations and photos of different larval stages. Finally, the guide provides a comprehensive list of references.

Why did migrants from southern Portugal choose Argentina instead of following the traditional path to Brazil? Starting with this question, this book explores how, at the turn of the twentieth century, rural Europeans developed distinctive circuits of transatlantic labor migration linked to diverse immigrant communities in the Americas. It looks at transoceanic moves in the larger context of migration systems, examining their connections and the crucial role of social networks in migrants geographic mobility and adaptation. Combining regional and local perspectives on both sides of the Atlantic, Chains of Gold provides a vivid account of the trajectories of migrant men and women as they moved from rural Portugal to contrasting places of settlement in the Argentine pampas and Patagonia.
