Mediante a aplicação de técnicas de análise flúviomorfométricas disponíveis na literatura especializada, tais como estudo dos perfis longitudinais dos cursos d’água e os índices RDE (Relação Declividade vs. Extensão), buscou-se, neste trabalho, executar uma análise de prováveis deformações neotectônicas na região do Pontal do Paranapanema, extremo oeste do Estado de São Paulo. Dessa forma, a análise dos parâmetros flúvio-mofométricos proposta foi aplicada nas bacias hidrográficas menores que drenam tanto para o rio Paranapanema, ao sul, quanto para o rio Paraná, a oeste. As medidas foram efetuadas, inicialmente, nas drenagens com extensão superior a 8 km, tendo como base topográfica as folhas plani-altimétricas em escala 1:50.000, com equidistância de 20 m, editadas pelo IBGE e pelo IGC, totalizando 22 cartas topográficas. Os dados coletados foram lançados em planilhas Excel para a obtenção dos resultados gráficos e definição das anomalias. Utilizou-se de base geológica em escala 1:500.000 editada pelo IPT (1981), para comparação dos dados fluviomorfométricos com o substrato geológico sulcado pelos cursos d’água. Os trabalhos finais envolveram o cotejamento de todas as informações flúvio-morfométricas e geológicas e a interpretação das anomalias delimitadas. Para tanto se fez necessário elaborar uma base morfoestrutural adequada, que se baseou na análise de imagens de satélite do sistema SRTM, da NASA, com o auxilio do aplicativo Global Mapper. Os dados de morfometria fluvial indicaram a presença de um significativo número de anomalias, com destaque para trechos subsidentes de cursos d’água e também para perfis longitudinais retilíneos de drenagem, que se destacam do padrão logarítmico típico dos rios. Tais trechos foram interpretados como tectonicamente desequilibrados, indicando deformações crustais recentes. As anomalias flúviomorfométricas foram comparadas com áreas de solos espessos, interpretadas em imagens SRTM, e com a trama de lineamentos, confirmando que as áreas mais dissecadas correspondem a trechos com movimentação ascencional, que resulta em solos rasos e presença de anomalias de RDE. Os terrenos com solos mais espessos, por outro lado, abrangem áreas em subsidência, que podem incluir depósitos aluviais mais expressivos. Não-raro, estas áreas são demarcadas por limites estruturais (lineamentos) e/ou por trechos de perfis longitudinais anômalos de drenagens. Palavras-chave: Pontal do Paranapanema; morfometria fluvial; neotectônica; geomorfologia fluvial.

Environmental monitoring of aquatic systems is an important tool to support policy makers and environmental managers' decisions. Long-term, continuous collection of environmental data is fundamental to the understanding of an aquatic system. This paper aims to present the integrated system for environmental monitoring (SIMA), a long-term temporal series system with a web-based archive for limnological and meteorological data. The following environmental parameters are measured by SIMA: chlorophyll-a (µgL-1), water surface temperature (ºC), water column temperature by a thermistor string (ºC), turbidity (NTU), pH, dissolved oxygen concentration (mg L-1), electric conductivity (µS cm-1), wind speed (ms-1) and direction (º), relative humidity (%), shortwave radiation (Wm-2) and barometric pressure (hPa). The data were collected in a preprogrammed time interval (1 hour) and were transmitted by satellite in quasi-real time for any user within 2500 km of the acquisition point. So far, 11 hydroelectric reservoirs are being monitored with the SIMA buoy. Basic statistics (mean and standard deviation) and an example of the temporal series of some parameters were displayed at a database with web access. However, sensor and satellite problems occurred due to the high data acquisition frequency. Sensors problems occurred due to the environmental characteristics of each aquatic system. Water quality sensors rapidly degrade in acidic waters, rendering the collected data invalid. Data is also rendered invalid when sensors become infested with periphyton. Problems occur with the satellites' reception of system data when satellites pass over the buoy antenna. However, the data transfer at some inland locations was not completed due to the satellite constellation position. Nevertheless, the integrated system of water quality and meteorological parameters is an important tool in understanding the aquatic system dynamic. It can also be used to create hydrodynamics models of the aquatic system to allow for the study of meteorological implications to the water body.

In different regions of Brazil, population growth and economic development can degrade water quality, compromising watershed health and human supply. Because of its ability to combine spatial and temporal data in the same environment and to create water resources management (WRM) models, the Geographical Information System (GIS) is a powerful tool for managing water resources, preventing floods and estimating water supply. This paper discusses the integration between GIS and hydrological models and presents a case study relating to the upper section of the Paraíba do Sul Basin (Sao Paulo State portion), situated in the Southeast of Brazil. The case study presented in this paper has a database suitable for the basin's dimensions, including digitized topographic maps at a 50,000 scale. From an ArcGIS®/ArcHydro Framework Data Model, a geometric network was created to produce different raster products. This first grid derived from the digital elevation model grid (DEM) is the flow direction map followed by flow accumulation, stream and catchment maps. The next steps in this research are to include the different multipurpose reservoirs situated along the Paraíba do Sul River and to incorporate rainfall time series data in ArcHydro to build a hydrologic data model within a GIS environment in order to produce a comprehensive spatial-temporal model.

The object of this work was to study the dynamics of evaporation in the Itumbiara reservoir, located in Central Brazil, using MODIS-derived water surface temperature (product MOD11A1) and meteorological data acquired over the water surface. The evaporation rates were derived from latent heat flux, estimated through a mass transfer model. The estimates were carried out for the period between 1/1/2010 and 31/12/2010. The results showed that evaporation rate tends to increase from January to September and then decrease from September to December. The evaporation rate reached values near 20 mm day-1 in Itumbiara reservoir during the dry season in 2010. The mean evaporation rate for the wet season was 3.66 mm day-1 and 8.25 mm day-1 for the dry season. The total water volume evaporated from Itumbiara reservoir during 2010 was estimated at about 1.7 billion m³ (2,300 mm) which represents 10% of total reservoir volume. The results suggest that advection is the main transport mechanism which drives the evaporation in Itumbiara. The convective processes contribute secondarily to evaporation in Itumbiara reservoir.

Algae bloom is one of the major consequences of the eutrophication of aquatic systems, including algae capable of producing toxic substances. Among these are several species of cyanobacteria, also known as blue-green algae, that have the capacity to adapt themselves to changes in the water column. Thus, the horizontal distribution of cyanobacteria harmful algae blooms (CHABs) is essential, not only to the environment, but also for public health. The use of remote sensing techniques for mapping CHABs has been explored by means of bio-optical modeling of phycocyanin (PC), a unique inland waters cyanobacteria pigment. However, due to the small number of sensors with a spectral band of the PC absorption feature, it is difficult to develop semi-analytical models. This study evaluated the use of an empirical model to identify CHABs using TM and ETM+ sensors aboard Landsat 5 and 7 satellites. Five images were acquired for applying the model. Besides the images, data was also collected in the Guarapiranga Reservoir, in São Paulo Metropolitan Region, regarding the cyanobacteria cell count (cells/mL), which was used as an indicator of CHABs biomass. When model values were analyzed excluding calibration factors for temperate lakes, they showed a medium correlation (R²=0.81, p=0.036), while when the factors were included the model showed a high correlation (R²=0.96, p=0.003) to the cyanobacteria cell count. The empirical model analyzed proved useful as an important tool for policy makers, since it provided information regarding the horizontal distribution of CHABs which could not be acquired from traditional monitoring techniques.
