Santa Cruz (Torres Vedras)
Santa Cruz is a locality in the Silveira parish, part of the municipality of Torres Vedras, Portugal. It is mostly known for its extensive quality beaches. The beach of Santa Cruz served as inspiration for several poets, including Antero de Quental, João de Barros and Kazuo Dan. In June 2016, an official route was inaugurated, crossing places that were once crossed by the poets. This exhibition aims to honor and immortalize the three great poets, portraying their passage and experiences through Santa Cruz. History The Human history in Santa Cruz dates back to prehistory with its Paleolithic remains and antiquity with a Roman settlement which was slowly engulfed by the ocean. In the middle ages, like other places in the western world, the region suffered an urban, social and architectural decline, only surviving adverse conditions as a community, and later throughout the 17th century, the locality had frequent piracy attacks on the coast. With the French invasions the whole regi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Warm-summer Mediterranean Climate
A Mediterranean climate (also called a dry summer temperate climate ''Cs'') is a temperate climate sub-type, generally characterized by warm, dry summers and mild, fairly wet winters; these weather conditions are typically experienced in the majority of Mediterranean-climate regions and countries, but remain highly dependent on proximity to the ocean, altitude and geographical location. This climate type's name is in reference to the coastal regions of the Mediterranean Sea within the Mediterranean Basin, where this climate type is most prevalent. The "original" Mediterranean zone is a massive area, its western region beginning with the Iberian Peninsula in southwestern Europe and coastal regions of northern Morocco, extending eastwards across southern Europe, the Balkans, and coastal Northern Africa, before reaching a dead-end at the Levant region's coastline. Mediterranean climate zones are typically located along the western coasts of landmasses, between roughly 30 and 4 ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Coastal California
Coastal California, also known as the California Coastline and the Golden Coast, refers to the coastal regions of the U.S. state of California. The term is not primarily geographical as it also describes an area distinguished by cultural, economic and political attributes. Geography The area includes the North Coast, San Francisco Bay Area, Central Coast, and South Coast. The coastline is slowly eroding due to natural processes and potentially accelerated by climate change, though much more slowly in other places in the United States. In the last 100 years, the water line has risen less than along the coast of California. In the next 100 years, the water is expected to surge as much as , bringing into question the fate of the many million dollar homes settled right on the edge of the sea. Climate Coastal California is heavily influenced by east–west distances to the cold California Current (dominated by it) and microclimates due to hills and coast ranges, having strong ec ...
