Paula Quinteiro holds a PhD in Environmental Sciences and Engineering (2015), a Master in Sustainable Energy Systems (2010) and a Degree in Chemical Engineering (2006), from the University of Aveiro. P. Quinteiro is an Assistant Researcher at the University of Aveiro, being an integrated researcher member of the Associated Laboratory Centre for Environmental and Marine Studies (CESAM) (http://www.cesam.ua.pt/quinteiro). P. Quinteiro main research expertise and interests focus on environmental assessment tools, such as water footprint, carbon footprint, life cycle assessment and life cycle sustainability assessment, following a life cycle thinking approach towards the vision for a sustainable value chain and the transition to a circular economy. She has been working on the development and application of water footprint methodology and evaluation of the environmental impacts of suspended solids in the water column. At the same time, P. Quinteiro has been applying the life cycle thinking-based tools to assess the potential environmental and social impacts of products from various sectors, including ceramics, forest (eucalypt and pine), agriculture (vines), bioenergy, pulp and paper, construction materials, seafood, packaging, etc. P. Quinteiro is a team member/national PI of 7 ongoing EU and national funded scientific research projects. Co-author of more than 50 SCI papers, more than 100 oral communications, posters and papers in conference proceedings. Reviewer of several WOS journals (scope of environment, cleaner production, life cycle assessment, carbon footprint, water footprint, life cycle sustainability assessment). P. Quinteiro is MC member of COST Action CA22134 - Sustainable Network for agrofood loss and waste prevention, management, quantification and valorisation (FoodWaStop). H Scopus index of 23 and Google Scholar H index of 24.

Activity description Newspaper / Forum
2019/10/31 “A diminuição da precipitação leva a uma diminuição de água verde (água da chuva) disponível no solo, indispensável para o crescimento e manutenção da vegetação”, lembrou a investigadora à Wilder. Além disso, haverá uma “diminuição de água disponível para recarga de aquíferos e diminuição da água de escorrência superficial que alimenta os cursos superficiais de água”. Wilder
2019/10/28 Alerta: diminuição de chuva põe em causa ecossistemas Entre os anos 2046 e 2065, Portugal continental vai sofrer uma diminuição da precipitação média anual de 10 por cento na zona norte e em todo o litoral e de cerca de 30 por cento nas zonas interiores e no sul. As previsões, realizadas na Universidade de Aveiro (UA) apontam para um cenário de escassez de água no ecossistema e, naturalmente, para consumo humano. Face ao cenário, os investigadores apelam à implementação de medidas urgentes para, no futuro, melhor captar e gerir a água da chuva.
