  1. As praias de Sines e o seu legado geológico. Esta monografia pretende ser um instrumento formativo complementar de actividades de campo a desenvolver no litoral de Sines no âmbito da Geologia. As praias adjacentes ao Cabo de Sines são essencialmente constituídas por areias cujas características reflectem as suas fontes sedimentares e as variações da magnitude do transporte sedimentar transversal e longitudinal. Este transporte é condicionado. 2022. Gama, Cristina. http://hdl.handle.net/10174/32606.
