The eutrophication (cultural or anthropogenic) is induced by man and can have different origins, such as domestic sewage, industrial and agricultural activities, including the effluent still breeding systems of aquatic organisms. The expansion of aquaculture, with production of biomass and increase of nutrients in water may cause acceleration of productivity of algae, changing the ecology of aquatic systems. In addition, these waste water may present a risk to health through the transfer of pathogens from manure, plant residues, composted material, among others that are major sources of organic waste in some farming systems. Depending on the trophic level of fish ponds, which are dynamic environments, different planktonic species with short reproductive cycle and adapted to the changes contained in these systems can appear in high abundance. Water quality in the systems for raising fish is related to several factors, such as water source, management (liming, fertilizing, cleaning), cultivated species and quantity and composition of exogenous food. In order to minimize environmental impacts, there are techniques to improve the quality of water in fish farming systems and thus satisfactory answers can be obtained through the application of management practices. This paper aims to review the subject that deals with changes in water quality resulting from the activity of freshwater fish culture in Brazil. Search also recommend techniques of good management practices to minimize the impact generated by the activity.

The biomonitoring technique for water quality in water bodies has been incorporated increasingly in management of the natural resources, using mainly indices of its aquatic community characteristics. In Brazil the first efforts to use this technique was restricted to the South and the Midwest region of this country. Located in the northeast region, this study was conducted at Rio Grande do Norte state and had as main objective the assessment of water quality in the Piranhas-Açu river using benthic macroinvertebrates community as biological indicators. Thus, were applied two biotic indices, the BMWP (Biological Monitoring Working Party score system) and the IBF (Family Biotic Index). According the requirements of these indices, two periods of sampling were determined as basic methodology, in dry seasons of 2006 and 2007. The sampling sites were around the municipalities of Açu, Ipanguaçu, Alto do Rodrigues and Pendências. Physical-chemical measurements; a protocol of rapid assessment of diversity of habitats, and determination of the degree of tolerance of each taxon to organic pollution were also performed. The most abundant organisms found in the river were tolerant with the prevalence of Chironomidae (Diptera) and Melanoides tuberculata. This results, together with those ones got in indices application, showed a considerable organic pollution in the four sample places and the reaches were classified as modified to impacted. According to the used indices, this study suggest that this river have significant alteration in the biotic community and water quality on the organic pollution, and this fact, occurs in the reach of the river further downstream, where were expected a good water quality. Considering these results, measures aiming the conservation of this water body are needed regarding as it is inserted into a fragile ecosystem with dry season phenomenon, and the water of this river has extremely importance for the local economy

It is important to evaluate the quality of water for proper management of these resources, since the increase of environmental degradation and the multiple use of water resources are decreasing the quality of water consumed by living beings. The objective of this study was to characterize the phytoplankton community and its variations during periods of dray and rain in Jiqui Lake located in Parnamirim, RN. It was also aimed to analyze the physical and chemical factors of this environment, in order to contribute to the knowledge of water quality used for human consumption. The collection of water samples were carried out in September 2008 to August 2009. The collection of the phytoplankton community was carried out in four sampling sites (surface, bottom, margin of the lake without macrophytes and site dominated by macrophytes). Phytoplankton was collected using plankton net of 20m. The analysis of nutrients and identification of phytoplankton were performed in the laboratory. The results indicate that concentration of chlorophyll a was high in the bottom with mean value of 1.07 μgL-1 (SD ± 1.61). During the study period there was a dominance of the following species: Euglena gracilis, Trachelomonas sp, Cyclotellas sp, Gomphonema apuncto, Navicula cuspidata var. cuspidata, Navicula sp, Rhopalodia gibba. There was homogeneity between limnological values in the four study sites, with significant difference between the periods of drought and rain. The Jiqui Lake is considered oligotrophic due to its low concentrations of chlorophyll a, high transparency and low levels of nutrients. The values of BOD and chlorophyll a concentration remained below the permitted standards existing for freshwaters in Brazil, thus the water from Lake Jiqui is of good quality, suitable for human consumption.

The current study examined spatial-temporal modifications and water quality through chemical and biotic indicators during both dry (January, February and November 2006) and wet seasons (March to June 2006). This study was carried out in Armando Ribeiro Gonçalves Reservoir, RN, Canal do Pataxó and after the water station treatment (WST). The physical-chemical parameters were measured in situ and inorganic nutrients, chlorophyll a and Free Oxygen Demand (FOD) were analyzed in laboratory conditions. Quali quantitative analyses of phytoplankton were carried out utilizing Sedgwick-Rafter camera. Results indicate that DQO concentrations were low. FOD concentrations in the reservoir were comparatively higher in the dry season (5.21 mgL-1; 5.64 mgL-1 e 6.05 mgL-1) in relation to the wet season (4.52 mgL-1; 4.12 mgL-1 e 4.92 mgL-1), in surface, intermediate and bottom waters, respectively. FOD values were inferior to 1.0mgL-1in both Canal do Pataxó and after WST, which is considered adequate for public use reservoirs. Although FOD concentrations were low, Armando Ribeiro Gonçalves Reservoir, Canal do Pataxó and WST were classified as euthophizied, mesotrophic ad oligotrophic, respectively, considering the Index of Trophic State Criteria. Chlorophyll a concentrations in the study reservoir were higher in the surface (199.2 µgL-1) during the wet season, whereas in Canal do Pataxó concentrations decreased from 1.56 µgL-1 to 0.028 µgL-1, and after WST values were low (0.059 µgL-1). Dominance of cianobacterias, such as Planktotrhix agardhii (dry season) and Microcystis sp (wet season) was registered in all three areas. In the reservoir and Canal do Pataxó, density of cianobacterias, such as P. agardhii and Microcistys sp., was superior to the values allowed by the Health ministry (HM). However, after WST, density values of cianobacteria were inferior to values established by the HM

The response of zooplankton assemblages to variations in the water quality of four man-made lakes, caused by eutrophication and siltation, was investigated by means of canonical correspondence analysis. Monte Carlo simulations using the CCA eingenvalues as test statistics revealed that changes in zooplankton species composition along the environmental gradients of trophic state and abiogenic turbidity were highly significant. The species Brachionus calyciflorus, Thermocyclops sp. and Argyrodiaptomus sp. were good indicators of eutrophic conditions while the species Brachionus dolabratus, Keratella tropica and Hexarthra sp. were good indicators of high turbidity due to suspended sediments. The rotifer genus Brachionus was the most species-rich taxon, comprising five species which were associated with different environmental conditions. Therefore, we tested whether this genus alone could potentially be a better biological indicator of these environmental gradients than the entire zooplankton assemblages or any other random set of five species. The ordination results show that the five Brachionus species alone did not explain better the observed pattern of environmental variation than most random sets of five species. Therefore, this genus could not be selected as a target taxon for more intensive environmental monitoring as has been previously suggested by Attayde and Bozelli (1998). Overall, our results show that changes in the water quality of man-made lakes in a tropical semi-arid region have significant effects on the structure of zooplankton assemblages that can potentially affect the functioning of these ecosystems

A problemática relacionada com a modelação da qualidade da água de albufeiras pode ser abordada de diversos pontos de vista. Neste trabalho recorre-se a metodologias de resolução de problemas que emanam da Área Cientifica da Inteligência Artificial, assim como a ferramentas utilizadas na procura de soluções como as Árvores de Decisão, as Redes Neuronais Artificiais e a Aproximação de Vizinhanças. Actualmente os métodos de avaliação da qualidade da água são muito restritivos já que não permitem aferir a qualidade da água em tempo real. O desenvolvimento de modelos de previsão baseados em técnicas de Descoberta de Conhecimento em Bases de Dados, mostrou ser uma alternativa tendo em vista um comportamento pró-activo que pode contribuir decisivamente para diagnosticar, preservar e requalificar as albufeiras. No decurso do trabalho, foi utilizada a aprendizagem não-supervisionada tendo em vista estudar a dinâmica das albufeiras sendo descritos dois comportamentos distintos, relacionados com a época do ano. ABSTRACT: The problems related to the modelling of water quality in reservoirs can be approached from different viewpoints. This work resorts to methods of resolving problems emanating from the Scientific Area of Artificial lntelligence as well as to tools used in the search for solutions such as Decision Trees, Artificial Neural Networks and Nearest-Neighbour Method. Currently, the methods for assessing water quality are very restrictive because they do not indicate the water quality in real time. The development of forecasting models, based on techniques of Knowledge Discovery in Databases, shows to be an alternative in view of a pro-active behavior that may contribute to diagnose, maintain and requalify the water bodies. ln this work. unsupervised learning was used to study the dynamics of reservoirs, being described two distinct behaviors, related to the time of year.

Para atender a demanda, a transferência de água de rios por canal é uma prática comum no Nordeste brasileiro. O Canal do Sertão Alagoano capta água do rio São Francisco (no reservatório Apolônio Sales) para abastecer municípios do estado de Alagoas. O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar a evolução de parâmetros físico-químicos da água (temperatura, pH, turbidez, condutividade, dureza, sulfatos, cloretos, nitrogênio total e fósforo total) ao longo dos 29 km iniciais. Foram realizadas duas coletas no período seco em 10 pontos. Por meio do teste não-paramétrico MannWhitney, evidenciou-se que temporalmente as duas coletas são significativamente diferentes para todos os parâmetros, mesmo sendo ambas realizadas no período seco. Longitudinalmente, nas duas coletas, temperatura, pH e condutividade, foram significativamente diferentes entre o início e o final dos 29 km, apresentando uma tendência crescente nos valores. Quanto à qualidade, conforme a Resolução 357/2005 do CONAMA, a água do Canal apresentou valores dentro da Classe 1, com exceção do fósforo total.

Este trabalho foi realizado com o intuito de avaliar o potencial de cultivo de tilápia em reservatório de água para irrigação, aumentando a produtividade em pequenas propriedades familiares. Foram utilizados 3.600 alevinos de tilápia tailandesa, com peso inicial de 8,10 g. Os alevinos foram colocados em um reservatório de água para irrigação, com volume útil de 1.170 m3. O período de cultivo foi de 26/12/2007 a 01/08/2008. Os alevinos foram alimentados com ração comercial extrusada com porcentagem de proteína recomendada para cada fase de crescimento. O arraçoamento restrito foi de três vezes ao dia, com a proporção de 5% da biomassa total. Para o ajuste do fornecimento de ração, foram realizadas biometrias a cada 20 dias. Em cada biometria foram realizadas análises locais dos parâmetros de qualidade da água e amostras da água foram coletadas para análise posterior em laboratório. Ao final do experimento foi realizada a avaliação do desempenho zootécnico dos animais. O peso final médio foi de 535 g e a biomassa final de 18.489 kg ha-1. Os parâmetros de qualidade da água estavam dentro da faixa ótima para cultivo. A produção de peixes em reservatórios de água para a irrigação é viável.

A aqüicultura é uma atividade que tem evoluído muito nos últimos anos. Para avaliar a qualidade da água na aqüicultura, o biomonitoramento por macroinvertebrados bentônicos tem sido cada vez mais utilizado, porém ainda é incipiente. Há diversas formas de coleta desses organismos, como pegadores de fundo e coletores com substrato artificial.O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a eficiência de diferentes coletores com substrato artificial para o biomonitoramento de um reservatório rural utilizado para a produção de tilápias em tanques-rede. Foram avaliados dois tipos de coletores contendo taboa e pedra brita, fixados à meia água e rente ao fundo, por períodos de 30, 60 e 90 dias. Durante esse período também foram coletadas amostras de sedimento do fundo com uma draga tipo Petit Ponar. Ao final do experimento foram identificadas onze famílias de macroinvertebrados, sendo que a maior riqueza foi observada nas amostras coletadas com a draga. Os dados indicam uma diminuição da diversidade biológica ao longo do tempo nos coletores que continham folhas de taboa, e um pico de colonização aos 60 dias para os coletores com pedra. Apesar das amostras coletadas com a draga terem apresentado a maior riqueza de famílias, esse equipamento apresentou algumas desvantagens como o difícil manuseio, enquanto que os coletores com substratos artificiais são facilmente manuseados, além de garantir uma maior uniformidade das amostras, o que é muito vantajoso no monitoramento de pontos espacialmente distribuídos no interior dos reservatórios e viveiros utilizados pela aqüicultura.
