Foraminifera scientific studies became, historically, of your apply in relative dating of rocks, stratigraphic correlations and paleoenvironmental reconstruction. In the last decades, they have been applied on the studies of modern ecosystems, with or without antrhopic influence. Both aspects are interest of petroleum industry. Among other approaches, foraminífera are used as good indicators of the fluctuation of relative sea level. This study aimed to survey and taxonomic study of the community structure of foraminifera in surface samples of a core, 60 cm, collected in mangrove located in Itapanhaú river in Bertioga (SP).It also aims to contribute to the discussion about typical patterns of community structure of mangrove margins and provide elements for discussion on the relative sea level behavior in this area in almost modern times. It was been collected 6 samples along the core of 60 cm of length, each one 10 cm depth. They were made in laboratory and in each sample sought to find at least 100 foraminifera per ml. The species identification was made with reference specified material and collection available on IGCE-UNESPetro, Rio Claro. The community structure was studied in terms of richness, diversity and species composition and was made the results comparison from similar areas to interpret the depositional environment. Were found 21 species within them 13 calcareous and 8 binders, being the most abundant and frequent species Ammonia tepida, Ammonia parkinsoniana e Elphidium spp. Essentially there wasn’t change in the community structure within the period covered by the core which reflects an environment of outer margin of mangrove without noticeable change in relative sea level at the respective time of deposition of muddy sediments. The community structure here recognized its similar to estuarine environment well maintained which indicates a low human impact in the area over the time interval. The agreement of the results...

Atualmente as iniciativas em educação a distância vêm crescendo significativamente, contudo, acreditamos que esse crescimento não veio acompanhado de igual reflexão sobre as práticas dessa modalidade educacional, por isso, esse estudo busca ser uma iniciativa nesse sentido, pretende buscar quais as características necessárias (de interação, da atividade, da tecnologia, visuais etc.) para promover e manter uma comunidade online de aprendizagem. O foco nas comunidades online se deve ao fato de que elas possibilitam elevado grau de interação entre seus participantes, o que as torna desejáveis em cursos de educação a distância, uma vez que acreditamos que a aprendizagem ocorre na interação entre os sujeitos, alunos e professores, as mídias e o objeto de conhecimento. Baseamo-nos em princípios da metodologia qualitativa de pesquisa e nos utilizamos de procedimentos como a observação participante de um curso a distância, intitulado Tendências em Educação Matemática que foi oferecido no primeiro semestre desse ano pelo Grupo de Pesquisa em Informática, outras Mídias e Educação Matemática (GPIMEM), do departamento de Matemática da UNESP de Rio Claro. Realizamos também entrevista com alguns alunos do curso, como forma de tentar melhor compreender algumas questões, além de análise de alguns documentos gerados pelo mesmo, tais como o programa e a avaliação final proposta pela administração e respondida pelos alunos. Para este trabalho definimos algumas características necessárias para obter e manter uma comunidade online de aprendizagem de acordo com a bibliografia específica e buscamos verificar sua ocorrência no curso observado, como forma de buscar elaborar reflexões sobre elas e de contribuir para futuras iniciativas nesse sentido. Concluímos que grande parte dessas características foi encontrada no curso estudado e que os problemas tecnológicos... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

The following work had as one of major goals to summarize everything that was learnt and experienced during the Geography Graduation Course and doing it the beginning of a journey towards understanding the phenomena relevant to individuals in society and the urban space over the nature. This work has the background one of the poorest places in South America, but that comes up reflections and interpretations regarding the life and geographical science. To understand this, it was necessary to rescue the local historic process, report their specificities, thus, drawing a parallel with the geographical theories. There was an attempt, therefore, to encompass the theoretical knowledge to understand the different socio-spatial identities, territories and socioeconomic contexts

To understand how biological phenomena emerge, the nonlinear interactions among the components envolved in these and the correspondent connected elements, like genes, proteins, etc., can be represented by a mathematical object called graph or network, where interacting elements are represented by edges connecting pairs of nodes. The analysis of various graph-related properties of biological networks has revealed many clues about biological processes. Among these properties, the community structure, i.e. groups of nodes densely connected among themselves, but sparsely connected to other groups, are important for identifying separable functional modules within biological systems for the comprehension of the high-level organization of the cell. Communities' detection can be performed by many algorithms, but most of them are based on the density of interactions among nodes of the same community. So far, the detection and analysis of network communities in biological networks have only been pursued for networks composed by one type of interaction (e.g. protein-protein interactions or metabolic interactions). Since a real biological network is simultaneously composed by protein-protein, metabolic and transcriptional regulatory interactions, it would be interesting to investigate how communities are organized in this type of network. For this purpose, we detected the communities in an integrated biological network of the Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae by using the Clique Percolation Method and we veri ed, by calculating the frequency of each type of interaction and its related entropy, if components of communities...

Nowadays, there is a search for knowledgment that could be applied in the solution of the problems caused by petrolific activities involving the environment, like the biodiversity preservation and the ecosystems monitoring and management. Foraminifera (Protista) are used as an important tool to the environment characterizarion, because they answer quickly to the fisic-quimic variations and indicate local alterations. The goal of this job is to create models of foraminiferal communities composition through the screening of subsuperficial samples obtained from a core collect from Bertioga Channel, Baixada Santista (SP), trying to understand the influence of the environmental variations along the time upon the indicator species presence, as well as making paleoenvironmentals reconstructions of the area. A 80 cm-core was removed in the outer edge of marsh adjacent to Bertioga Channel, not far from the confluence with the Itapanhaú River. There are presented in abundance, equitability, diversity and species richness obtained in nine samples along the sediment. The lower part of the core is compound by calcareous species (rotalideos and miliolideos) with domain Ammonia (Biofacies 1) and the intermediate and upper parts contain mainly agglutinated species (Biofacies 2 and 3, which is dominated by species of Ammotium). The qualitative and quantitative study of the microfauna of foraminifera present in the core reveals that in recent decades the sampling area passed from a condition of infra-marginal strip under significant coastal marine influence for the condition of inter-coastal swamp covered with mangrove vegetation. This change indicates that the site has undergone a process of sediment progradation, a phenomenon that may have been timely, localized, or a reflection of a relative fall in sea level at the regional level

Grande parte das florestas sofreu o processo de fragmentação em áreas de diversos tamanhos, próximas ou isoladas de outros fragmentos florestais. A diminuição do habitat original, o grau de isolamento, e as influencias das bordas e da matriz trouxeram uma série de conseqüências negativas para os animais. Entretanto, já foi observado que enquanto algumas espécies são extremamente prejudicadas, sendo muitas vezes levadas à ext inção, outras conseguem se beneficiar com a alteração ambiental. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi compilar os dados extraídos de levantamentos e disponíveis na literatura sobre riqueza e abundância de aves em ambientes afetados pela perturbação antrópica em contraste com aqueles realizados em florestas intactas, com a finalidade de responder à seguinte questão: quais são as famílias e guildas tróficas de aves que são prejudicadas ou beneficiadas pela perturbação e alteração do seu habitat? Para tanto foi realizado uma análise por meio de um ranking em ordem decrescente das famílias e guildas mais abundantes para as menos abundantes em cada área de estudo com a posterior aplicação do teste de Mann-Whitney. Foi perceptível que trabalhos com censos quantitativos são relativamente novos e ainda pouco explorados. A escassez de levantamentos quantitativos em praticamente todos os biomas com exceção da Mata Atlântica foi uma realidade com a qual a equipe se deparou. Logo, apenas foi possível realizar análises para os biomas Mata Atlântica e Cerrado. Verificou-se que um grande número de famílias se comporta de maneira diferente em áreas preservadas e perturbadas na Mata Atlântica e Cerrado (p<0,05). Porém, isto não significa que estas famílias estão sendo beneficiadas ou prejudicadas pela fragmentação, uma vez que não representam dados diretos de abundância, apenas pode-se comparar o nível de contribuição...

Communities are present on physical, chemical and biological systems and their identification is fundamental for the comprehension of the behavior of these systems. Recently, available data related to complex networks have grown exponentially, demanding more computational power. The Graphical Processing Unit (GPU) is a cost effective alternative suitable for this purpose. We investigate the convenience of this for network science by proposing a GPU based implementation of Newman community detection algorithm. We showed that the processing time of matrix multiplications of GPUs grow slower than CPUs in relation to the matrix size. It was proven, thus, that GPU processing power is a viable solution for community dentification simulation that demand high computational power. Our implementation was tested on an integrated biological network for the bacterium Escherichia coli

With the degradation of Atlantic Forest over the years, the area that this ecosystem has occupied before decreased and in a lot of cases it was separated in little fragments, each one isolated in a different way depending of the local antropic action. In this context, this study compares the helminth fauna of anurans from two different fragments of Atlantic Forest, one inset in a matrix of eucalyptus (Eucaliptus sp.) reforestation and the other in a matrix of pasture (Brachiaria sp.), verifying if there is any difference between the structure of helminth communities. There were collected 155 anurans in both fragments, being 77 Hypsiboas albopunctatus, 18 Hypsiboas faber, 27 Hypsiboas polytaenius e 33 Dendropsophus minutus. These were weighted and their snout-vent lengths were measured. After the animals were euthanatized and their internal organs and coelomatic cavity were evaluated for helminth infection. There were identified one trematode species (Haematoloechus fuelleborni) and 14 nematode species (Aplectana sp., Cosmocerca parva, Cosmocerca sp1., Cosmocerca sp2., Cosmocercoides sp., Falcaustra mascula, Cosmocercidae larvae, nematode larvae, Physaloptera sp. larvae, Ochoterenella sp., Oswaldocruzia subauricularis, Raillietnema simples, Rhabdias sp. e Schrankiana sp.). The hylids' helminth fauna studied in São Luiz do Paraitinga fragments were relatively rich, being registered 15 helminth species in the captured anurans. The comparison between the fragments did not show differences in relation of the composition and abundance of helminth fauna in spite of the individualities of each environment
