Análise paleogeográfica evolutiva da região do Parque Estadual da Ilha do Cardoso (PEIC), litoral sul de São Paulo, como subsídio a ações de planejamento e conservação ambiental

Cardoso Island, settled in the south of paulista region, is characterized by its ecological importance due to the great biodiversity of Mata Atlântica and for accommodating several kinds of ecosystems as mangroves, which were considered by UNESCO as human natural ownership. The mangroves are among the most important marine ecosystems, known as warranty of biological productivity and diversity and supply of food and economical resources to the local population. Although the island has been transformed in a state park for preservation, it hasn’t become free from environmental impacts made by antropical activities. This way it was proposed a rebuilt of an evolutionary process in the region, having as an objective to subsidize programs of environmental conservation and planning , aiming to a sustainable development. For this it was used a isobasis methodological analyses where by the drainage channels and its confluences makes relative maps to the different base levels represented by the isobasis, characterizing itself by an attempt to rebuilt the preterit local landscape. There were elaborated eight maps referring to four orders of confluences met in the region of Cardoso Island and round it where you can conclude it is about an appropriate methodology to rebuilt preterits environments that specially aim to actions of environmental planning and conservation.

Dinâmica da produção de serapilheira em diferentes sistemas de restauração florestal

The ecological restoration is an alternative to increasingly important for biodiversity conservation. However, actions need indicators to evaluate its effectiveness in restablishment ecological processes, including nutrient cycling. The objective of this study was to compare the annual litterfall from five different treatments for forest restoration, compared with a neighboring fragment of Seasonal Semideciduous Forest, in order to subsidize their management plans for ecological restoration. Litter traps of 0.25m² were used, and a total production was: 1700.6 Kg. ha-1.year-1(treatment 1), 7748.1 Kg. ha-1.year-1(treatment 2), 7120.8 Kg. ha-1.year-1 (treatment 3), 9254.5 Kg. ha- 1.year-1 (treatment 4), 7130.2 Kg. ha-1.year-1 (treatment 5) and 8876 Kg. ha-1.year-1 (fragment of Seasonal Semideciduous Forest - treatment 6). The leaf fraction was the largest contributor to the deposition of litter in all treatments. Litter served as a good environmental indicator that can be used as a tool to support management plans. Key words: Litterfall, forest restoration and Seasonal Semideciduous Forest

A história do arremesso do peso como subsídio para o seu ensino em aulas de Educação Física

O atletismo pode ser considerado como um “esporte de base”, já que está relacionado aos movimentos de correr, marchar, lançar, arremessar e saltar. Mas, logo percebemos que, apesar da importância do atletismo, não tivemos aulas dessa modalidade esportiva na escola. Por ser uma prova do atletismo, o arremesso do peso, também é pouco conhecido, cabendo aos professores de Educação Física se aprimorarem, buscando conhecimentos na área, a fim de poder ensiná-lo na escola. Para auxiliá-los, procuramos resgatar a história do arremesso do peso, identificando as principais modificações que ocorreram nessa prova desde sua origem até os dias atuais. Após intensa pesquisa bibliográfica, reunimos, nesse trabalho, dados referentes à origem da prova, resultados de competições internacionais, história nos Jogos Olímpicos, técnicas do arremesso do peso etc, a fim de subsidiar seu ensino na escola, onde deveria ser trabalhada como parte do conteúdo do atletismo desenvolvido nas aulas de Educação Física. Pautando-nos nas dimensões dos conteúdos: conceitual, procedimental e atitudinal, procuramos, ainda, evidenciar diferentes possibilidades de ensino do arremesso do peso voltado à formação do aluno, em especial, no que se refere ao que ele “deve saber”, ao que ele “deve fazer” e às atitudes que ele “deve tomar” diante às situações por ele vivenciadas ao longo da vida

Dinâmica da secreção de néctar em Zeyheria montana Mart. (Bignoniaceae) relacionada à atividade dos beija-fores polinizadores

The Cerrado is home to important biodiversity areas in the state of Sao Paulo. Therefore, research on the reproduction of species of this biome are essential to help conservation programs. Pollination is the main mechanism by which outcrossing plants perpetuate their populations, and the attractive, such as nectar, are of vital importance to many anthophilous animals and essential to the maintenance of interactions with pollinators. In this context, the objective of this study was to investigate the ecological dynamics of secretion and sugar composition of floral nectar in Zeyheria montana, an ornithophilous exclusive Cerrado species, visited preferentially by Colibri serrirostris, also exclusive to this biome. This dynamic was assessed in isolated flowers in pre-anthesis, using microsyringes to collect nectar and manual refractometer to measure the concentration. Experiments were carried out to evaluate production throughout anthesis, including the assessment of total daily production, the effect of successive removal, the rate of production during the day and night and changes in concentration and composition of sugars, which was performed in HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography). The rate of nectar production was about three times greater at night with a concentration two times lower, resulting in a supply of large amounts of dilute nectar in the early morning hours, peak of visitation for hummingbirds. Moreover, the production of nectar was more pronounced before the anthesis, and is available to visitors already in newly opened flowers, which are preferentially visited by C. serrirostris. There was an increase in the nectar production of flowers in the group with successive manual removal upon the control group, suggesting that the withdrawal by visitors stimulates the production, ensuring the availability of the resource including flowers previously visited...

Caracterização fisiográfica do município de Ipeúna - SP

A ocupação humana desordenada e sem planejamento pode resultar em impactos ambientais como esgotamento do solo, perda de cobertura vegetal, erosão e perda de solo, assoreamento de leitos fluviais, contaminação das águas (superficiais e profundas), entre outros. Estas conseqüências estão presentes também no município de Ipeúna-SP, onde predominam as pastagens e o cultivo de cana-de-açúcar. Este quadro atual mostra a necessidade de se desenvolver estudos e levantamentos que contemplem diversos fatores ambientais (bióticos e abióticos) básicos para o entendimento das características, potencialidades e fragilidades da área, possíveis de subsidiar o planejamento e a gestão do uso da terra e adequar a utilização dos recursos naturais disponíveis com conservação do meio ambiente. O estudo da fisiografia permite a caracterização e classificação das paisagens terrestres levando em consideração os fatores formadores destas paisagens (clima atual e passado, hidrologia, geologia, geomorfologia e indiretamente aspectos bióticos) e as relações (processos) que os afetam. Desta forma, o objetivo da pesquisa foi investigar as características fisiográficas do município de Ipeúna-SP e, assim, contribuir para o melhor conhecimento dos aspectos do meio físico. Para atingir o objetivo foram realizadas as técnicas de interpretação de fotografias aéreas em escala 1:25.000, geoprocessamento e levantamentos de campo.

Caracterização da comunidade de mamíferos de médio e grande porte na Fazenda Nova América, Cabrália Paulista – SP

Após a expansão das fronteiras agrícola e pecuária e com o atual crescimento da indústria de papel e celulose, mosaicos compostos por remanescentes de floresta secundária intercalados com áreas de cultivo de eucalipto se tornaram uma paisagem freqüente no Estado de São Paulo. A queda na biodiversidade em qualquer monocultura é notável quando comparada aos fragmentos de florestas naturais, entretanto estudos sobre a dinâmica das espécies inseridas nesta nova condição ainda são escassos. O objetivo deste estudo é caracterizar a comunidade de mamíferos de médio e grande porte na Fazenda Nova América, localizada no município de Cabrália Paulista-SP, de forma a subsidiar ações voltadas ao manejo de habitat e conservação. O principal método de coleta foi o registro de pegadas em transectos lineares, para o estabelecimento da riqueza, abundância e estimativa da diversidade. Para isso, foram realizadas 4 campanhas de campo onde eram percorridos 5 trajetos de 2 km e largura variável, distando, no mínimo, 500 metros entre si. Foram realizadas três repetições em cada trajeto. Como metodologia complementar foram utilizadas parcelas de areia, observação direta de animais, de outros vestígios, entrevistas e captura fotográfica. Foram obtidos registros de 24 espécies de mamíferos, distribuídos em 12 famílias e 6 ordens. A observação de rastros em transectos lineares se mostrou eficiente, amostrando cerca de 80% das espécies presentes na área. A espécie mais encontrada foi o cachorro-domato (Cerdocyon thous), presente em todos os ambientes. As espécies com maior abundância na fazenda foram as generalistas. As áreas de Eucalipto apresentaram uma riqueza e uma abundância de espécies menor que os fragmentos de mata, visto que a monocultura acaba limitando os recursos disponíveis. Mas quando o cultivo ocorre de forma sustentável, pode-se formar um novo ambiente para a fauna e flora locais

Subsídios para elaboração de plano municipal de gestão de resíduos sólidos orgânicos para o município de Rio Claro-SP

The research aims to propose grants for development of Municipal Plan for the Management of Organic Solid Waste generated in the municipality of Rio Claro. The research universe was composed of organic waste generators establishments (markets and grocers). From the registry of commercial establishments provided by the municipal government were identified who presented this typology, which totaled 38 establishments. In this universe the interview was conducted in 15 establishments obtained by directed sampling based on the characteristics of size, type and location. The data collected were the amount generated, disposal of waste, waste separation, collection frequency, reasons for the disposal of waste, frequency of purchase of products. From the data obtained in the field, we estimated the total generation of organic waste in this segment for the municipality. Then, the estimated costs for implementation and operation of a composting center, a way to subsidize the implementation of the management plan was carried out. We opted for the aerobic composting process by the simplicity of operation and because it is a technique already known. The average waste generation was established by tracks (size) with: stores up to 4 boxes (classified as small) generate on average 1511 kg / month, 40% of organic waste, the 5-9 boxes (small/midsize) generate on average 4338 kg / month, 35% organic and the 10 to 19 boxes (midsize) generate on average 7647 kg / month with 32% organic. In total establishments generate 105 t/ month of waste, with 35t / month of organics. 94% of establishments are in font segregation of waste into recyclable, organic and waste, indicating that the proposed management of organic waste is amenable to application without many changes in existing routine in stores. Recyclables are sent for recycling through selective collection held by the cooperative, while the organics are destined for the landfill and feed. The results indicate...

Geofísica aplicada no diagnóstico preliminar do antigo lixão do município de Rio Claro - SP

The issue of solid waste disposal and urban growth are conflictive, since the areas where old uncontrolled refuse disposal were away from the city today are incorporated to the urban area population. Thus, now population is closer to the degradation of contaminants coming from waste disposal, and, in some cases, these areas become housing subdivisions. This work aims to support the diagnosis of a former landfill in the municipality of Rio Claro (SP), using geophysical methods through resistivity anomalies. In order to develop the diagnostic, it was utilized water and soil analysis of a preliminary report and techniques of vertical electrical sounding and electrical profiling. The areas influenced by the garbage presented less resistivity than the one of the natural subsoil. Through the interpretation of results, the local potentiometric map was elaborated, as well as a map of calculated resistivity. The interpretation of these products indicated a disagreement between the groundwater flow and the current topography, leading to an identification of a preferential direction of the contamination plume in the NE-SW. These observations prove the applicability of geoelectrical methods in areas of former waste disposal with little information.

As possíveis relações entre moralidade e perdão em crianças do primeiro ano do ensino fundamental

This research aims to show how children can learn the meaning of forgiveness in order to build their autonomy and moral . Research is essential to support teachers to work morale within the classroom with their students , so that conflicts a re minimized or even eliminated . Through Piagetian clinical method was observed and interviewed students from the first year of elementary school , trying to identify those who can take a perspective other than you r own . All this in order to inve stigate the possibility of these becoming autonomous and can measure th e consequences of their actions . To develop the moral and intellectual autonomy of the students , Piaget (1994 ) shows the importance of children to act properly by choice , not by pres sure punishments or rewards , and that they have the correct answers , not because someone showed you , but because found . Through research , we found that students are able to forgive, but often requiring that the colleague is also punished in some way. Fo r in fact the children act autonomously it is necessary that the school provides situations where they can experience the cooperation , reciprocity, mutual respect , and thus gradually build their autonomy

Comparação entre dossel e sub-bosque de um trecho de floresta ombrófila densa Montana, Parque Estadual da Serra do Mar, Núcleo Picinguaba, SP, Brasil

Estudos a respeito da composição florística e estrutura fitossociológica da vegetação são de grande importância não só para estabelecer parâmetros e associá-los a comunidades semelhantes em diferentes locais ou sob influência de condições ambientais diversas. Também servem para subsidiar medidas conservacionistas diante do cenário atual de intensa fragmentação, aplicáveis sob perspectivas da ecologia da paisagem. Neste estudo, analisamos a composição e estrutura do subbosque de um trecho de Floresta Ombrófila Densa Montana, e comparamos com o dossel. Amostramos todos os indivíduos arbustivo e arbóreos que tiveram altura superior ou igual a um metro e meio e perímetro à altura do peito (PAP) menor que quinze centímetros (H ≥ 1,5 m e PAP < 15 cm) em uma área de 0,4 ha, totalizando 2321 indivíduos. Encontramos 252 espécies, distribuídas em 43 famílias para o subbosque e 583 indivíduos, 129 espécies e 36 famílias para o dossel. Os valores do índice de diversidade de Shannon (H’) foram, respectivamente, 4,13 e 3,94 nat.ind.-1 e os valores de equabilidade de Pielou (J) foram 0,75 e 0,81. As famílias de maior riqueza em comum nos dois estratos foram Myrtaceae, Rubiaceae e Fabaceae. A espécie com o maior valor de importânica do sub-bosque foi Psychotria nuda (VI = 9,33%), abrangendo 12,3% dos indivíduos. Já para o estrato superior, Coussarea accedens foi a que mais se destacou, com VI = 7,94%, (12,5% dos indivíduos amostrados). A comparação entre as parcelas revela similaridade na composição, principalmente entre parcelas pouco distantes geograficamente. Em relação à riqueza, podemos perceber uma diferença significativa entre as parcelas, de forma que a parcela Q2 apresenta maior número de espécies para o sub-bosque. Quanto aos estratos, notamos que estes apresentam riqueza semelhante quando comparados... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

Análise da percepção da variação do campo térmico na cidade de São Paulo-SP: o exemplo da subprefeitura Sé

This research aimed to analyze the spatial area for the design of the Heat Island of Subprefecture Sé, in São Paulo-SP, with the support of geotecnology and based on the study of environmental perception. We used remote sensing products such as maps ofland use and soil temperature and apparent surface to evaluate the thermal conditions considered critical points in the central area of the municipality. The methodology used was qualitative analysis, based on interviews with the people, allowing rescue geoecology the conditioning aspects of the city, with an emphasis on environmental perception. This study aimed toanalyze the perception of the variation of the thermal field in São Paulo. The results indicated that (95%) of respondents feel that the temperature of the central area has increased each year, and the district that stood out was the Sé, due to intense use and occupation of land and contribute one of the largest shopping centers. Districts with points given for having better thermal comfort were Santa Cecília, the República and Bela Vista, due to their larger amount of green areas by fiscal court, which act as local refrigerators. It was found that the respondents have the perception and awareness of their spa directly related to the quality of life. Through analysis of several variables involved, proposals and strategies may support public policies and urban planning

Orientação sexual nas aulas de educação física escolar

Sexual Orientation is present in the school setting, due to human relationships among all belonging to this area. Being a cross-cutting theme, this theme pervades the Physical Education and allows discussions related to the gender, body and media, respect for diversity, disease prevention and other topics that the contents of body culture allow to deal. With observation and participation in the school context, through a stage of more than a year, we realized the need to address the issue of sexual orientation with students. In addition, there is a dearth of articles dealing with this topic, a factor that complicates and limits the search fields of material for the teacher preparing lessons and address the issue. Thus, this study aims to develop classes to subsidize the practice of teachers of physical education in relation to Sexual Orientation. The preparation of activities was carried out from a bibliographic review and experiences of the researchers, presenting new possibilities to teacher to treat this subject in classes of that discipline. The topics covered are intended to demystify some pre-concepts related to gender in bodily practices that are socially constructed. Also, presented a way to address STDs and teenage pregnancy, topics not found in academic magazines of the area used in this study. Treating Sexual Orientation in Physical Education classes may seem at first a tricky and of difficult data collection. The teacher must seek this knowledge so that it can address the issue with students in a transparent and really effective not being only informative classes meaningless or decontextualized thoughts

Avaliação das taxas de erosão química e física na bacia hidrográfica do Ribeirão Jacutinga (SP)

Currently with the growing technological advancement and global, new areas are being devastated, and as a result, the erosion became more frequent causing loss of soil, infiltration capacity of the surface and weathering of rocks. In this way, environmental studies are increasingly frequent to understand the environment in which we live, but also to avoid any degradation of the same and of finite natural resources, which are essential for human life. From this, this work has as main goal, analyzing the rates of chemical and mechanical erosive watershed of Ribeirão Jacutinga, at its mouth, in the city of Rio Claro, supporting environmental studies and sustainable development today. Order to reach these values were measured and total dissolved solids in suspension in the stream during the months from January to July 2012. As results included higher rates of both physical and chemical weathering in the rainy months, especially january
