Investigação geoambiental de áreas contaminadas com elaboração do modelo conceitual em campo utilizando ferramentas de alta resolução (HRSC)

The Brazilian geo-environmental site characterizations usually do not provide a suitable Conceptual Site Model (CSM). Site assessments are mostly inappropriate and there is a lack of knowledge about the subsurface environment, generated by inconsistent data that will guide risk analyses and remediation projects full of uncertainties, causing delay on closing cases, inefficient remediation and higher global projects costs. The step of data collection must have high priority to develop a suitable CSM,, and it demands more effective high resolution site characterization (HRSC) tools than the traditional ones and, preferably, the decision-making have to be done in the field. This paper presents and discusses two geo-environmental site characterization results, in which the decision-making was done in the field based on high resolution site characterization (HRSC) used together with the traditional ones. These site investigations provided a significant time saving, allowed the detection of subsoil heterogeneities, a proper understanding of the subsurface environmental, and have generated a solid CSM in real-time. These CSM can subsidize remediation projects based on a more reliable data than those that would be obtained in traditional site investigations, concerned just in following the rules established by the environmental agencies.

Emprego do método eletromagnético (em) na investigação e mapeamento de contaminações geradas por cemitérios: o caso de Monte Alto/SP

The use of geophysical methods in the analysis and mapping of likely contamination plumes has shown a huge value in the development of researches related to environmental issues. Among the main geophysical methods applied to this purpose, the geoelectrical methods stand out, being based on the use of electric and electromagnetic fields. The electromagnetic method (EM) uses physical environment responses created by electromagnetic field propagation, consisting of an alternated electric output and a magnetization force, used to obtain the electric conductivity (σ) of the subsurface materials. It has a broad application in the mineral exploration and prospection, and its use has been also efficient in environmental researches. By the electromagnetic method, this work examined and mapped possible contaminations created by cemetery leachate in the Saudade's Cemetery, located in the city of Monte Alto, Sao Paulo, where sedimentary rocks of the Bauru Group are exposed. Cemetery leachate is a putrefactive liquid, generated from the decomposition of organic matter, which contains substances that can contaminate soil and groundwater. Results achieved in this work show that the use of the electromagnetic method is an important indirect tool in the investigation of environmental contaminations in areas with highly contrasting physical properties

Adequabilidade das áreas de vegetação ripária da microbacia do Córrego Comur - Botucatu (SP) em função da legislação ambiental

The inadequate soil use is an aggravating factor of the environmental degradation and ecological unbalance. The analysis of the use and covering of the soil, by information of Remote Sensing, constitutes a technique of great usefulness to the planning and administration of the ordered occupation and rational of the physical middle, besides making possible to evaluate and to monitor the preservation of areas of natural vegetation. This work sought to evaluate the conflicts of soil use in permanent preservation areas (PPA) in Stream Comur watershed - Botucatu (SP) through Geographical Information System and satellite image of 2009. The study area is located among the geographical coordinates 48o 23’ 04” to 48o 25’ 54” of longitude WGr. and 22o 44’ 42” to 22o 48” 12” of latitude S with an area of 1,719.6 ha. The results allowed to verify that the geoprocessing techniques were of fundamental importance in the identification of the areas of soil use, of APP and of conflicts among use and PPA where it leaves of the areas of APP is being used inadequately. In terms of environmental sustainability, it can be deduced that the watershed is very unfavorable, once it presents 70.67% of area used inadequately with sugarcane and pasture.

Diagnóstico de potenciliade das unidades ambientais na bacia do Rio Capivara, Botucatu - SP

This work has the objective to elaborate the potentialities of the farming expand diagnosis of the Capivara River Hydrographic basin, in the Botucatu – SP municipal district, to obtain an interpretation of the system actual situation through the historical trajectory and possible evolution with the assistance of the SIG Ilwis 3.4 and orbital images CBERS 2B, in the pancromatics bands, obtained in 12/07/2008. The potentialities of the farming expand diagnosis was obtained through the physical mean modeling, of the farming expand presents in the studied environment and shows possible line actions to minimize the impacts e reach a sustainable development to the region. The Capivara river basin presents more than 70% of your areas occupied by the anthropic expanding, with the extensive farming predominance, forestall planting, orange and sugar cane. In the potentiality diagnostic analyses notes the good quality of the basin to the farming expand, except the region comprehended by the Botucatu Cuesta and the meadows area. The basin until has a good environmental quality and this diagnosis must serve for a start point to the realization of the territorial ordination as quick as possible to the environment conditions finds remains the same, granting the recovery capability.

Estado físico do meio de cultura na propagação in vitro de bromeliaceae

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of the physical state of the culture medium on the behavior in vitro of the bromeliaceas Neoregelia cruenta, Tillandsia stricta, Vriesea gigantea, V. guttata e V. incun/ata. Micropropagated shoots had been cultivated in culture medium MS, with 30 g sucrose, 2,5 mg dm-3 BAP, and 0,5 mg dm-3 ANA, establishing the treatments: T1- half-solid with 7 g agar; T2- static liquid; T3- liquid under-agitation of 90 rpm; and T4-static liquid with bridge of paper filter. After 30 days, the use of static way of liquid culture presented better results in relation of proliferative average rate in all the species (9.4 shoots in N. cruenta, 5.6 in T. stricta, 11.5 in V. gigantea, 9.2 in V. guttata and 3.9 in V. incurvata). In relation the average height of the shoots, was distinguished for N. cruenta the liquid under-agitation (2.83 cm), T. stricta and V. incurvata the semisolid (1.76 cm and 2.02 cm, respectively) and V. gigantea and V. guttata the static liquid (0.61 cm and 1.48 cm, respectively). The use of medium MS static liquid was more suitable for in vitro culture of bromeliads species studied.
