On December 6th, 2025, team members Katerina Kombiadou, Susana Costas and Teresa Drago did preliminary drilling fieldwork in Tavira Island (Ria Formosa).

The aim is to inspect sediment composition and obtain a rough idea of the main sedimentary facies and their depths along the backbarrier marsh platform. This preliminary work will allow to identify suitable sites for the final core collection, foreseen in the project.
