Como a agricultura é altamente influenciada pelas condições climáticas e meteorológicas, o conhecimento dessas condições é fundamental para o setor. Desenvolvido em 2002 e disponibilizado em 2003 na Web, o Sistema de Monitoramento Agrometeorológico (Agritempo) oferece gratuitamente informações agrometeorológicas de elevado interesse para a agricultura. Foram utilizados recursos públicos no desenvolvimento do sistema, sendo, portanto, direito da sociedade conhecer os retornos. Foram analisados os benefícios oriundos da redução de custos e do incremento de produtividade na agricultura e na mão de obra pela adoção do sistema. Considerando os dados de custos e benefícios, no período de 2002 a 2014 a taxa interna de retorno foi de 38,2%; a relação benefício/custo, de 2,61; e o valor presente líquido, de R$ 8.663.859,17. Verificaram-se também benefícios não monetários: segurança alimentar, capacitação, capacidade produtiva do solo e uso de recursos naturais, geração e intercâmbio de novos conhecimentos, melhoria na captação de recursos e no relacionamento político-institucional, entre outros. Com esses resultados favoráveis, comprovam-se a importância do Agritempo e os retornos dos recursos públicos na pesquisa agrícola.

Among the various effects caused by the climate change and human intervention, the mangrove ecosystem changes through of the years has been worth mentioning, which hasn t known which are the pros and cons for the adjacent coastal and estuarine environments yet. It happens due to the present dynamism in these areas, besides of the difficult understanding of the processes associated with evolution. This study aimed to environmentally evaluate adjacent mangroves from the Macau and Serra oil fields, located on Rio Grande do Norte northern coast, to support the mitigating actions related to the containment of the erosive process, as well as, according to the principles of the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM), to assess the amount of atmospheric carbon sequestered by the studied ecosystem. An inventory was conducted through mangrouve mapping which has supplied this research, especially regarding to the structural characterization of mangrove areas. To understand the local mangrove behavior in a greater level detail, techniques of remote sensing, GIS and GPS were used to make an analogy between the current and past states of the mangrove studied, allowing to make anticipated projections for the future impacts or changes in that region. This study combined data from multispectral LANDSAT 5 TM, Landsat 7 ETM+ with radar microwave data from SAR RADARSAT-1, which increased the interpretation capacity of the data from optical sensor systems. The interpretations have been supported by the data field, representing a better and innovative methodology for the environmental and taxonomic characterization of mangrove forests considered. The results reveal that mangroves of the Ponta do Tubarão Sustainable Development Reserve are biologically representative areas and providing a variety of benefits, especially for local communities, constituting the priority sites for actions development aimed at conservation. They also have been showing the necessity to make mitigating measures in order to recover degraded areas through reforestation or creating new areas of mangrove, as currently 7.1% of the mangrove forests studied are dead or in an advanced state of decomposition. The amount of atmospheric carbon sequestered proved very significant when analyzed for the whole area, which is able to sequester atmospheric 4,294,458 Ton CO2 per year
