O presente trabalho apresenta equações de estimativa da radiação fotossinteticamente ativa global () e difusa () em função das respectivas radiações global () e difusa () do espectro solar total, bem como a estimativa da fração PAR difusa da PAR global () em função do índice de transmissividade atmosférica (). A base de dados foi adquirida no período de 01/06/1999 a 31/09/2000 na Estação de Radiometria Solar da FCA-UNESP, Botucatu. Foram utilizados dados adicionais, diferentes dos utilizados na geração dos modelos, de forma a possibilitar uma validação adequada dos modelos propostos.

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.

The interview has been a widely used procedure of research in humanities. Despite the frequent use, researches are not always supported in the literature on research methodology. The aim of this study was to analyze how the interview was used in dissertations and theses in a graduate Program in Education at a university in Sao Paulo state. This study examined 167 final papers developed in to period of five years. Variables focused were: justification for the use of interview, type of interview used, guide elaboration and adaptation, kind of analysis, among others. The results showed that it is still necessary to incorporate the contents of the research methodology underlying the use of the interview to achieve the scientific rigor for this procedure.

The Assistive Technology makes the lives of people without disabilities more practical, but for people with disabilities it can make things possible. For these individuals can provide the conditions, making their limitations are not obstacles to their social and personal empowerment, and may contribute to their effective participation in tasks that were previously impossible, such as remaining seated correctly. A segment on which the necessary assistive technology works, is the adaptation of furniture such as chairs, tables, chairs-to-wheels for individuals with disabilities, as well as cerebral palsy. The study aimed to conduct a survey and brief description of theses and dissertations produced in Brazil on furniture adapted for students with cerebral palsy. We made searching in databases of libraries of major universities and federal state national banks, theses and dissertations. Nine studies were selected for description. It was concluded that there is a considerable array of professionals, both in engineering as the field of rehabilitation, to contribute in the adaptation, creation and even the manufacture of furniture for children with cerebral palsy and that the securities most studied are the chairs and their components.

Os flebotomíneos (Diptera, Psychodidae) são insetos transmissores de leishmanioses e arboviroses. O estabelecimento de colônias em laboratório para o estudo comportamental da espécie Lutzomyia neivai, transmissor da leishmaniose tegumentar, requer manutenção e cuidados especiais. Os insetos hematófagos são atraídos por substâncias voláteis liberadas pelos hospedeiros e o estudo dessas substâncias é denominado “ecologia química”. A capacidade atrativa das substâncias pode ser medida em laboratório por meio de aparatos como túneis de vento. Entretanto, muitas variáveis interferem na eficácia de um túnel de vento, como por exemplo: tamanho do túnel, forma de liberação e captura dos insetos, velocidade e forma da pluma de odor e altura da fonte de liberação de odor (meio ou base do túnel). Este estudo tem como finalidade o estabelecimento de uma colônia de Lutzomyia neivai e a construção de um túnel de vento, desenvolvido e modificado a partir de literatura de referência, para avaliação de substâncias atrativas. Os espécimes foram coletados na região de Araraquara, nos municípios de Rincão e Santa Eudóxia. Após a coleta, os insetos capturados foram levados para a Faculdade de Ciências Farmacêuticas – Campus Araraquara onde a colônia foi mantida e os experimentos realizados

Atmospheric Discharges are responsible for several lost in the electrical system therefore it´s done studies to find ways to reduce the problem caused by discharges. This branch of engineering is necessary the gathering, stock and analysis of large quantity of data to validate or refuse the many studies produced about it The CENDAT proposed a project to collect data on induced voltages in distribution lines and current waveform of the lightning, but a difficulty that arose was the accumulation of data due to lack of manpower available to catalog all the data collected. Thinking in this difficulty, the engineer Acacio Silva Neto CENDAT´s researcher with trainees began to develop a program to solve this problem. This work keeps the development of this program in order to solve the problem of accumulation of data
