Morphometry of Cyphocharax gouldingi in the Praquiquara river watershed, Apeu east, Eastern Amazon

Curimatídeos do gênero Cyphocharax Fowler, 1906 distribuem-se amplamente nas bacias hidrográficas da América do Sul, contudo essa ampla distribuição inequivale a quantidade de trabalhos relacionados ao gênero. Visto isso, objetivou-se contribuir ao conhecimento de Cyphocarax gouldingi (Vari, 1992) através da caracterização morfométrica de indivíduos coletados na microbacia do rio Praquiquara, localizado no médio Apeú, Amazônia Oriental. Para a determinação morfométrica da espécie, utilizou-se o software Adobe Photoshop CS6 Extended, mensurando os respectivos caracteres merísticos: comprimentos total, padrão, zoológico, cabeça e focinho, a medida da altura e o diâmetro do olho de 178 exemplares capturados entre os meses setembro (2014) e maio (2015). Verificou-se uma correlação forte positiva e alometria negativa, entre o comprimento total e as demais medidas externas, e observou a importância do rio Praquiquara durante o ciclo de vida da espécie. Conclui-se que as medidas morfométricas de C. gouldingi (1) satisfazem a estimação de comprimento total e (2) possibilitam o estudo sobre a dinâmica de crescimento da espécie estudada.

Capgras syndrome: a clinical manifestation of watershed cerebral infarct complicating the use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

Ischaemic cerebral accidents are frequent following extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), especially after fixing the reinjection cannula in the right primitive carotid artery, which leads to an interruption in downstream flow. We describe a rare and unusual symptom of cerebral ischaemic accident that is known as Capgras syndrome. This feature is interesting because it may be documented by computed tomography (CT) scan and particular electroencephalography signals. It appears that our observation represents the first documented case of Capgras syndrome complicating ECMO. This incident emphasizes the potential hazards associated with right common artery ligature for venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VAECMO). In addition, it shows that this psychiatric symptom (that has been interpreted psychodynamically for many years) can have an organic basis, which should be studied.

Integrated Water Resources Management: Principles for Coordination in the Coal River Watershed, West Virginia

Mountaintop removal (MTR) coal mining has had a significant influence on the water sources within the Coal River watershed of West Virginia. Using an approach such as Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) may improve management for the long-term protection and sustainability of the Coal River watershed‰Ûªs water resources. This Capstone project analyzes current site-specific information related to water quality and quantity and the impacts of MTR in the region, reviews current management challenges, and identifies key stakeholders to be included in IWRM planning. This information provided a foundation for the development of a preliminary IWRM coordination plan for the Coal River watershed based on IWRM principles and guidelines. It is hoped that this preliminary plan will contribute to the development of a final coordinated IWRM plan.

A Watershed Approach to Managing the Natural Resources in South Carolina

Environmental degradation from point and non-point source pollution in the past ten years has made it increasingly clear that threats to aquatic resources cannot adequately be addressed without a more integrated watershed approach to the management. Through comprehensive, qualitative interviews of experts in the watershed approach in South Carolina, recommendations will be made to improve this holistic process. Conducting interviews to compile institutional knowledge on the incentives and barriers from professionals working within the watershed approach will show how managing the natural resources in South Carolina could be more effective and efficient. By gathering experiences of lessons learned, best approach techniques, and suggestions for future watershed planning, several recommendations were made to further the use of the watershed approach in South Carolina.
