Foram estudadas as comunidades de ácaros em indivíduos de Hymenaea martiana Hayne (Leguminosae) com diferentes tamanhos, localizados em fragmento de Mata Estacional Semidecidual com transição para o Cerrado. As plantas analisadas foram selecionadas com base no gradiente de altura e perímetro do tronco a 10 cm acima do solo. Foram realizadas coletas quinzenais no período de março de 2007 a março de 2008. em cada amostragem foram retiradas três folhas dos ramos externos e três dos ramos internos, ao redor da região mediana da copa de cada planta selecionada. Para comparar os padrões ecológicos das comunidades de ácaros entre as plantas, foram aplicados índices descritores da diversidade. em H. martiana, foram registrados 109.445 ácaros pertencentes a 28 espécies de 14 famílias. Nove espécies de ácaros, dentre as 19 classificadas como frequentes e acessórias, tiveram sua densidade populacional influenciada pelo tamanho da planta. Enquanto a densidade populacional de Chiapacheylus edentatus de Leon, 1962, Euseius cf. errabundus, Pronematus sp., Brevipalpus phoenicis (Geijskes, 1939) e Tarsonemus sp., apresentou correlação positiva com a altura da planta, a de Aberoptus aff. cerostructor, Euseius sibelius (De Leon, 1962), Typhlodromalus aripo de Leon, 1967 e Phytoseius nahuatlensis de Leon, 1959, apresentou correlação negativa. Não houve influência da altura da planta sobre a riqueza de espécies e densidade total de ácaros entre ramos internos e externos das plantas com diferentes alturas. As variações fisiológicas entre os indivíduos de diferentes estágios ontogenéticos de H. martiana, juntamente com fatores abióticos, podem ter influenciado a ocorrência e a distribuição dessas espécies de ácaros sobre essa planta.

The agricultural unpaved roads are important road structures for the economic and social agricultural development of the Nation, and the erosion provoked by rain water in the road bed and sides are closely related to bad draining, one of the main factors for their degradation. In order to make the draining system adequate, it is necessary to know about erodibility, infiltration capacity of water in the ground and adoption of mechanical slope abatement with grid elevation and water interception. This study presents drainage model through the construction of terraces with gradient transversally associated to the capitation basin in abruptic red dystrophic argisol soils, medium sandy texture, based on slops abatement techniques, elevating the road bed and deviating flow. The grain sized fractions of this ground (sand, silt, clay) and the aggregate stability indicated that this ground, under anthropic action, presents erosive processes resulting in superficial draining with ground hauling, sanding sources and courses of water situation below roads, providing great environmental impacts in the hydric bodies. The reduction of erosion problems in these unpaved roads is in the adoption of measures that intercept waters from the draining of their stream bed itself, as well as pluvial waters comings from adjacent areas of contribution, that are collected and conducted to inlaid terraces and capitation basis.

This paper presents the results of the longitudinal profile analysis and the application of gradient index (RDE) in the Patos River, a tributary of the Ivaí River basin, PR. The goal is identify and quantify the anomalous zones along river course concerning their genesis - activity neotectonic or/and lithological imposition. The Patos River has a length of 127 km and a relief amplitude of 660 m, The occurrence of an important knickpoint in the middle course the Patos River can be divided into two stretches. Of the 22 sections measured, 10 were considered anomalous, distributed in both upper and lower course. In the upper course, over a basaltic bedrock of the Serra Geral Formation the RDE values are lower than those in the lower course, where river flows over sedimentary rocks of the Terezina Formation. The 2 nd order anomalies are related to lithological changes, relief alignments and channel confluences - as in the case of São João River. The 1st order anomalies are linked to differences in rock resistance associated with structural control, which provides the formation of waterfalls.

The correlation between vegetation patterns (species distribution and richness) and altitudinal variation has been widely reported for tropical forests, thereby providing theoretical basis for biodiversity conservation. However, this relationship may have been oversimplified, as many other factors may influence vegetation patterns, such as disturbances, topography and geographic distance. Considering these other factors, our primary question was: is there a vegetation pattern associated with substantial altitudinal variation (10-1,093 m a.s.l.) in the Atlantic Rainforest-a top hotspot for biodiversity conservation-and, if so, what are the main factors driving this pattern? We addressed this question by sampling 11 1-ha plots, applying multivariate methods, correlations and variance partitioning. The Restinga (forest on sandbanks along the coastal plains of Brazil) and a lowland area that was selectively logged 40 years ago were floristically isolated from the other plots. The maximum species richness (>200 spp. per hectare) occurred at approximately 350 m a.s.l. (submontane forest). Gaps, multiple stemmed trees, average elevation and the standard deviation of the slope significantly affected the vegetation pattern. Spatial proximity also influenced the vegetation pattern as a structuring environmental variable or via dispersal constraints. Our results clarify, for the first time, the key variables that drive species distribution and richness across a large altitudinal range within the Atlantic Rainforest. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.
