Didactic and outreach possibilities of the Cretaceous palaeontological site of Figueira da Foz (Portugal)

The sedimentary exposures and the palaeontological site of Figueira da Foz (Portugal) are located near the coastal town of the same name, in front of the Mondego river estuary, where a set of mid Cenomanian to lower Turonian (Upper Cretaceous) marine beds of the West Portuguese Carbonate Platform ar...
