A fricativa coronal /z/ em final de morfemas no PB : uma análise pela Teoria da Otimidade

Nosso trabalho discute a realização das fricativas /s/ e /z/ na borda direita de morfemas no português brasileiro, especialmente no dialeto gaúcho, à luz do modelo standard da Teoria da Otimidade. Os dados que consideramos referem-se principalmente a prefixos, no entanto, as afirmações feitas não se limitam apenas a essa fronteira morfológica, mas também às fronteiras de outros morfemas, inclusive a de palavras, estendendo-se a qualquer coda. Nossa proposta toma como base a hipótese de que a representação subjacente da fricativa é /z/. Dão conta da realização distinta dessa fricativa na superfície as restrições de marcação contextual *[s] [+cons + voz] e *voicedcoda e a restrição de fidelidade Ident-IO ranqueadas nessa ordem. A análise mostra que é possível observar esse aspecto da fonologia do PB pela Teoria da Otimidade standard.

Metalogênese do depósito de Cu Cerro dos Martins, RS.

Este trabalho revisa a geologia e apresenta dados inéditos do Depósito de Cobre Cerro dos Martins (DCM), incluindo geocronologia Pb-Pb em zircão, inclusões fluidas, isótopos estáveis (C, O e S), composição isotópica do Sr e geoquímica de elementos maiores e traços das rochas vulcânicas encaixantes. O depósito está hospedado na seqüência vulcano-sedimentar do Grupo Bom Jardim, da Bacia do Camaquã, do Neoproterozóico do Escudo Sul Rio-grandense, e possui reservas calculadas de 1.450.000 t, com teor médio de 0,83% Cu. O depósito consiste de um conjunto de veios sulfetados que preenchem fraturas de direção N40º-60ºW em rochas andesíticas e sedimentares clásticas, com disseminações confinadas em níveis de siltito, arenito, andesito e conglomerado, da Formação Hilário do Grupo Bom Jardim. Os minerais do minério filoneano são a calcosina e bornita com calcopirita, pirita, galena e esfalerita subordinadas. Digenita, covelita, malaquita cuprita e azurita ocorrem como minério secundário em ganga constituída de carbonatos, quartzo, minerais argilosos, barita e rara hematita. A composição química das vulcânicas (elementos maiores e traços, incluindo ETR) indicam uma afinidade alcalina para o vulcanismo relacionado à Formação Hilário na região do Cerro dos Martins. Um corpo de quartzo-diorito, intrusivo nas rochas vulcânicas e sedimentares, mostrou idade de 550 ±5 Ma (Pb-Pb em zircões) indicando um valor mínimo para a geração do minério do DCM. Esta idade confirma a posição estratigráfica desta rocha na Formação Acampamento Velho e também fornece uma idade mínima para a deposição da seqüência vulcano-sedimentar encaixante do DCM. Os sulfetos do DCM mostram δS34 CDT com valores relativamente homogêneos entre - 6.2 e + 0.9‰ (n= 7). O valor de δS34 CDT da calcopirita, levemente positivo (+0.9‰), indica uma origem magmática para o S, mas os valores negativos encontrados nestes sulfetos, poderiam indicar o envolvimento de outras fontes com enxofre reduzido. Entretanto, a presença de hematita nas paragêneses minerais indica que o minério foi formado sob condições oxidantes, modificando a composição isotópica original do enxofre magmático (δS34 CDT ~ 0‰) para valores negativos. As baritas analisadas apresentam valores com δS34 CDT entre +9.25 e +10.65‰ (n=4) indicando deposição em condições oxidantes, originadas pela mistura de um fluido magmático-hidrotermal com água meteórica. A composição isotópica do C das calcitas do DCM varia com δC13 PDB entre - 1,90 a -4,45‰, interpretada como resultante da mistura entre carbono de fonte magmática com mármores do embasamento. Inclusões fluidas em quartzo do minério indicam temperaturas de deposição entre 157 e 273 °C com mediana de 215 °C (n = 45). A composição isotópica do oxigênio da água em equilibrio com a calcita do fluido hidrotermal (T= 215 °C) mostra valores de δ O18 SMOW entre 3 e 14, indicando H2O de origem magmática, com contribuição de água meteórica. A razão Sr87/Sr86 das mesmas calcitas mostram valores entre 0,7068 – 0,7087, de crosta superior. Rochas plutônicas e vulcânicas do escudo com idades próximas de 550 Ma possuem razões iniciais Sr87/Sr86 entre 0,704 – 0,710, compatíveis com aquelas encontradas nas calcitas da mineralização. Os fluidos hidrotermais do magmatismo shoshonítico-alcalino com idade de 595 Ma e Sr87/Sr86 entre 0,7041 a 0,7053, também são candidatos a fonte do Sr dos carbonatos hidrotermais, mas necessitariam de um componente mais radiogênico. Assim, a fonte de C-O e Sr das calcitas do minério pode ter sido originada diretamente de um fluido magmático-hidrotermal ou de uma mistura entre este fluido e mármores do embasamento. Portanto, o depósito Cerro dos Martins é interpretado como de origem magmática-hidrotermal, relacionado ao evento magmático alcalinoshoshonítico, pós-colisional da Orogênese Dom Feliciano, com idade entre 595-550 Ma. Novos modelos exploratórios para depósitos de cobre no Escudo do Rio Grande do Sul devem considerar o magmatismo alcalino na gênese dos depósitos.

Bioestratigrafia de Nanofósseis calcários e estratigrafia de isótopos (C e O) do talude médio, quaternário, porção N da Bacia de Campos, ES

A Bacia de Campos, em sua porção norte, na parte sul da área oceânica confrontante ao Estado do Espírito Santo é uma área ainda pouco estudada e conhecida, principalmente no que se refere aos sedimentos quaternários em águas profundas. Foram escolhidos dois testemunhos do talude médio na área, nos quais foram realizadas amostragens para Bioestratigrafia de Nanofósseis Calcários e Estratigrafia de Isótopos (Carbono e Oxigênio). Os resultados de Nanofósseis Calcários mostraram que a base do bioevento de acme de Emiliania huxleyi deve ser localizada em 74 mil anos BP na área, ao contrário do que foi proposto anteriormente. Os dados exibem também uma predominância absoluta de dois taxa: Emiliania huxleyi e Gephyrocapsa spp. A Estratigrafia de Isótopos de Oxigênio indicou uma excelente correlação com os modelos, permitindo um bom balizamento com os estágios isotópicos de oxigênio existentes. A integração da Bioestratigrafia de Nanofósseis Calcários e Estratigrafia de Isótopos podem explicar o comportamento dos taxa majoritários. A correlação da abundância relativa de E. huxleyi e de d18O revelou-se boa, indicando influência da paleotemperatura na abundância deste taxa. Os dados de Estratigrafia de Isótopos de Carbono mostraram uma concordância com as variações de abundância do gênero Gephyrocapsa, sugerindo que a disponibilidade de nutrientes mudou na área.

Aplicação de métodos radiométricos (Rb-Sr e Sm-Nd) na análise de bacias sedimentares o exemplo da Bacia do Paraná

Os métodos radiométricos (Rb-Sr e Sm-Nd) têm sido aplicados, com sucesso, em rochas sedimentares visando a obtenção de idades deposicionais e informações sobre proveniência. Em muitos casos, apesar dos resultados geologicamente significativos, ainda persistem dúvidas em relação a extensão e interpretação dos dados obtidos. Isto ocorre porque as rochas sedimentares resultam da mistura de fragmentos detríticos de diversas proveniências com diferentes sistemas isotópicos, conseqüentemente, já contendo um registro isotópico da rocha fonte. No caso do método Rb-Sr, aplicado em rochas sedimentares de granulometria fina, pode-se obter idades absolutas para o evento deposicional. Isto é viável desde que este registro isotópico proveniente das rochas fonte seja apagado no momento da deposição, ou seja, deve ocorrer a homogeneização isotópica do Sr no ambiente sedimentar. Para tanto, devem ser observados alguns pré-requisitos em relação a amostragem, granulometria, ambiente deposicional e composição mineralógica das amostras, entre outros. No entanto, ainda existem questionamentos em relação a esta metodologia especialmente quanto à ocorrência e à extensão do processo de homogeneização isotópica do Sr em ambiente sedimentar.(Continua0 O método Sm-Nd, apesar de ser uma técnica relativamente nova quando aplicada a rochas sedimentares, tem se tornado uma ferramenta fundamental para auxílio na determinação de proveniência de rochas sedimentares. As maiores dificuldades estão na correta interpretação dos valores obtidos e sua associação com um ambiente sedimentar, ou seja, de baixa temperatura. Neste trabalho, foram aplicados os métodos radiométricos Rb-Sr e Sm-Nd em amostras de rochas sedimentares coletadas em diferentes contextos geológicos da Bacia do Paraná. Foram tentativamente testados os diferentes parâmetros que atuam no sentido da homogeneização isotópica do Sr e do comportamento do Nd. Os resultados obtidos permitiram aprimorar a metodologia radiométrica Rb-Sr e Sm-Nd quando aplicada em rochas sedimentares, bem como obter resultados sobre a idade deposicional de diferentes unidades sedimentares e, por vezes, sua proveniência.

Comparação estratigráfica e isotópica (Sm-Nd) das regiões do Cerro Morado e La Torre, bacia de Ischigualasto-Villa Unión, noroeste argentino

A bacia de Ischigualasto-Villa Unión (Stipanicic e Bonaparte, 1972), que consiste de uma bacia alongada no sentido NW-SE e preenchida por rochas sedimentares Triássicas, foi gerada durante o Eo-Triássico pela reativação de descontinuidades crustais pré-existentes, associadas ao Gondwanides, na região central andina. Esta limitada a oeste, pelo vale do Rio Bermejo, no qual se encontra a zona de sutura do Vale Fértil, que se caracteriza pela borda ativa da bacia. Aqui, apresentar-se-á uma revisão da estratigrafia da bacia de Ischigualasto-Villa Unión, detalhando-se duas áreas chaves do registro estratigráfico inferior da bacia, na região do Cerro Morado e La Torre. Nestas áreas utilizou-se de técnicas estratigráficas e isotópicas (Sm-Nd em rocha total), com o objetivo de estabelecer uma correlação entre seus registros estratigráficos e suas áreas-fonte, além de caracterizar o comportamento tectônico. Ambos os perfis apresentam na porção inferior o preenchimento por um sistema aluvial-fluvial (Formação Tarjados sensu Romer & Jensen, 1966), subdividido em 4 associações de fácies: leques aluviais, canais fluviais, barras longitudinais e planície de inundação; e, na porção superior, o preenchimento por um sistema lacustre-deltáico (Formação Los Chañares sensu Frenguelli, 1944, no Cerro Morado e, Formação Lomas Blancas sensu Bossi e Herbst, 1968, em La Torre), subdividido em 4 associações de fácies: lacustre, pró delta, frente deltáica e planicie deltáica. Sobre as últimas unidades ocorre um lacólito de diabásio (Formação Los Baldecitos) A formação Tarjados apresenta as maiores idades TDM na região do Cerro Morado, variando entre 1,33 e 1,60 Ga, enquanto que em La Torre os valores oscilam entre 1,03 e 1,30 Ga. Isso é interpretado aqui como uma variação da área fonte entre as duas regiões na época de sua sedimentação, cujas regiões poderiam estar compartimentadas em termos tectônicos a época de sua deposição. A formação Los Chañares possui idades TDM variando entre 0,90 e 1,36 Ga, e a formação Lomas Blancas possui idades TDM entre 0,99 e 1,35 Ga, com dominância de valores próximos a 1 Ga nos dois blocos. Os diabásios da formação Los Baldecitos possuem idades TDM entre 0,51 e 0,33 Ga, cujo dado é interpretado com uma extração mantélica próxima a 130 Ma de um manto modificado pela orogenia do Ciclo Gondwânico, ou até mesmo pelo processo de slab break-off da crosta oceânica consumida pela colisão do micro-continente Cuyania com a proto-margem do Gondwana (Ramos, 1999). Todas as rochas dessa formação obtiveram valores de Epsilon Nd positivos. A integração dos dados estratigráficos e isotópicos nos permite interpretar as duas áreas como meio-grábens distintos na etapa inicial de preenchimento, em função da discrepância entre as idades TDM entre as áreas. A partir da transgressão lacustre as áreas-fonte são uniformizadas e o alto estrutural pré-existente é transgredido.

Conselho Municipal de Saúde de Pedras de Fogo - PB: um estudo sobre participação

The present study aims to understand the process of Participation of the Health Council- CMS in the formularization, implementation and control of the Municipal health plan of Pedras de Fogo, through four criteria of quality of participation considered by Demo (1993): representation, legitimacy, base participation, and self-responsibility. The criteria of representation is related to the quality of politics of the representative over the representings. Legitimacy is related to the politics` quality of the process of participation based on norms and rules that stipulate the participation, the base participation is a necessary political support so that the power authorization directed to the representings can be effective and the self-responsibility refers to the capacity of being responsible when it concerns to the public service or property. Through the descriptive and exploratory study a qualitative method was adopted to consider the conditions of the participation of the twelve council members of the City council of Health of Pedras de Fogo, through a formulated Instrument based on the criteria of DEMO (1993). It was concluded that the quality of the participation of the council members of the CMS of Pedras de Fogo understands essential aspects of the criteria of quality considered by Demo (1993) but it shows fragilities as unfamiliarity with the norms that legitimize the performance of the council; unfamiliarity of its condition of being an agent and the importance of the participation of the base for the reinforcement of its participation, as well as inertia related to the check and rendering of accounts on its performance. This way it makes sense that the participation of the council in the four criteria of quality of politics considered in this paper needs to improve

Política pública para o idoso : um estudo da cidadania no grupo cabelos de neve do programa conviver em Campina Grande-PB

The main objective of the study about the citizenship development in elderly attended by the Conviver Program of the City Hall of Campina Grande in Paraiba, Brazil was to evaluate how the actions of the Program contribute for the citizenship practice according to the users. The Citizenship analyzed is the existence of political, civil and social rights according to Marshall. For that it was utilized a descriptive research and a study of case based on technical procedure. The research was settled by the people who are benefited by the Conviver Program of the Snow Hair Group and the sample was formed by the active participants that it is in the Group for over ten years, corresponding to a total of ten elderly. For the data collection was utilized basic questionnaire in function of the low schooling of the interviewed, according to Marshall (2002) theory about the citizenship construction from each person. It was utilized the methodological procedure proposed by Bardin (2006), categorical analysis, in the qualitative data analysis, that was divided in four parts. In relation to Political Rights, noted that the program has stimulated your Watched on the exercise of voting and being voted. On the Civil Rights was observed that the Program has given incentive to actions which provide the users the justice rights in and in occupational activities as a job. In relation to Social Rights it was observed that the Conviver Program has contributed in order that its users can lead their lives according to the standards imposed by the society, which have being failed in the education area. As for the type of citizenship it was verified that the Program has given incentive to the served users, becoming more evidence on the speech basis

Relações de cooperação em consórcios públicos de regiões metropolitanas: análises do CONDIAM/PB e consórcio grande Recife

With the disorganized decentralization occurred in Brazil after the 1988 Constitution, municipalities have risen to the level of federal entities. This phenomenon became known as "municipalism" also brought some negative effects such as low capacity financial, economic and political of these entities. In the face of this reality , the municipalities sought in models of collaborative features to address public policy issues ultrarregionais, one of these models are the Public Consortia. Characterized as the organization of all federal entities that aim to solve public policy implementation alone that they could not, or spend great resources for such. This reality of the municipalities have an aggravating factor when looking at the situation in Metropolitan Regions (MRs). This is because the RMs has a historical process of formation that does not encourage cooperation, since that were created top-down during the military regime. Furthermore, the metropolitan municipalities have significant power asymmetries, localist vision, rigidity earmarked revenues, different scenarios conurbation, difficulty standardization of concepts and others that contribute to the vision of low cooperation of these metropolitan areas. Thus, the problem of this work is in the presence of collaborative arrangements, such as the Public Consortia in metropolitan areas, which are seen as areas of low cooperation. To elucidate this research was used for analysis the cases of CONDIAM/PB and Consórcio Grande Recife/PE, because they are apparently antagonistic, but with some points of similarity. The cases has as foundation the Theory of Common Resources, which provides the possibility of collective action through the initiative of individuals. This theory has as its methodology for analyzing the picture IAD Framework, which proposes its analysis based on three axes: external variables, the arena of action and results. The nature of the method of this research was classified as exploratory and descriptive. For the stage of date analysis, was used the method of document analysis and content, Further than of separation of the cases according to theur especificities. At the end of the study, noted that the CONDIAM/PB was a strategy of municipal government of Joao Pessoa to attract funds from the Federal Government for the purpose of to build a landfill, and over the years the ideology of cooperation was left aside, the prevailing view localist municipalities. In the case of Consórcio Grande Recife/PE, members act with some degree of cooperation, especially the collaborative aspect of the region, however, still prevails with greater strength the power of the state of Pernambuco in the decisions and paths of the consortium. Thus, was conclude that the Public Consortia analyzed are an experience of collaborative arrangement, from the initiative of members, as the theory of common resources says, but has not actually signed as a practice of collective action to overcome the dilemmas faced by metropolitan areas

Ideologia da casa própria... sem casa própria: o Programa de Arrendamento Residencial na cidade de João Pessoa-PB

Brazilian Housing policy has always promoted homeownership. In 1999, a new form of housing promotion was set up in the country with the PAR (Programa de Arrendamento Residencial, or residential rental programme). This is a sort of leasing, in which a right to buy is granted at the end of contract. Again, with this, the final objective is homeownership. This dissertation aims at further understanding the role of PAR in the wake of the country s housing policies of the post-BNH period, analysing the case of João Pessoa, capital city of Paraíba state. By focusing in the city, it has been possible to analyse also the impact of the programme in the dynamics of the city s urban development. Accordingly, the analysis of PAR seeks to understand the programme s operational aspects as well as its location, urban and architectural aspects. The operational aspects refer to how the programme is operated, considering the differences to the other housing programmes in the country. The urban and architectural aspects refer to location, typology and construction characteristics of housing estates produced under the scheme. This study gives a general view of the country s recent housing policy and programmes and the specific characteristics of PAR, observing also its impacts in the city development

Arquitetura residencial em João Pessoa-PB a experiência moderna nos anos 1970

In the mid-1980s, the magazine Projeto published the Actual Brazilian Architecture catalogue presenting texts by Hugo Segawa and Ruth Verde Zein with a corpus of works and engaged architects of the 1960s and 1970s. To comprehend the Brazilian architectural production post-1964, in those years of the 1980s, became a significant mission to reactivate the Brazilian architectural debate weakened by the military dictatorship. In his doctoral thesis Spadoni (2003) deals with the different ways which characterizes the Brazilian architectural production of the 1970s. Marked by inventiveness, this production was in tune with the modern thinking and in the transition period between the 1970s and the 1980s it synchronized with the international debate about post-modern architecture. Considering Spadoni s doctoral thesis, this work deals with the modern experience observed in the one-family-houses built in the seventies in João Pessoa. Some modern experiences were not clear outside, to observe it, it was necessary to search for the type of experience into the spatial disposition and of the know-how constructive, because into the appearance some houses not make explicit the use of the modern language. Other observed experiences allude to the repertoire of the Brazilian period in the years 1940s-1960s, to the experience of the modern architecture in São Paulo of the 1960s, to the experiences in which the climate of the Northeastern region strongly influenced the architectural conception. We can also find in a reduced number of houses a particular experience: it refers to experiences that expose the constructive doing, which leave the material apparent and apply to the residential type the experience of the industrial pre-fabricated buildings

Aparências da forma e forma do espaço: análise da configuração espacial de residências unifamiliares dos anos 1970 em João Pessoa PB

Assuming that the form of a building shell and its content the spatial form are distinct dimensions of architecture - however indivisible and interdependent -, this study focus, in the light of the Social Logic of Space (HILLIER; HANSON, 1984), on the intrinsic properties through which domestic space was structured in a sample of single-family dwellings built in João Pessoa (PB) during the 1970s - when the vocabulary of modern architecture still prevailed in Brazil though sharing the urban scene with other architectural trends -, in order to investigate regularities or divergences underlying their conception. These dwellings were originally classified (ARAÚJO, 2010a) in five categories defined according to the form of their building shells and to their prevailing construction techniques: (1) Brazilian modern legacy (considered as truly Brazilian modern style); (2) Paulista architecture (that refers to the modern production of São Paulo, Brazil, from the 1950s through the 1970s); (3) experiences of rationalization and prefabrication ; (4) experiences of adaptation to the climate (referring to a design strongly influenced by the hot and humid climate of North-eastern Brazil); and (5) hybrid (to account for a kind of stylistic hybridism that includes formal attributes, which evoke our colonial past). This study aims to determine, through the analyses of nineteen cases that represent each category, whether this taxonomy corresponds to distinct modes of spatial configuration. This research therefore proposes an approach to the classification of domestic architecture based on topological properties. The dwellings spatial organization was represented, quantified and analyzed, their spatial properties explored in consonance with one another and with the literature. Results pointed out that there is no evidence of a reciprocal relationship between the formal look of the built shells and their respective spatial structures

Adsorção de Pb(II) utilizando adsorvente composto por montmorilonita e dolomita

The destructive impact of improper disposal of heavy metals in the environment increases as a direct result of population explosion, urbanization and industrial expansion and technological developments. Argil are potential materials for adsorption of inorganic and the pelletization of it is required for use in adsorptive columns of fixed bed. The low cost and the possibility of regeneration makes these materials attractive for use in the purification process, capable of removing inorganic compounds in contaminated aquatic environments. In this work was made pellets of a mixture of dolomite and montmorillonite by wet agglomeration, in different percentages. The removal of Pb (II) was investigated through experimental studies, and was modeled by kinetic models and isotherms of adsorption. The materials were characterized using the techniques of XRD, TG / DTA, FT-IR, and surface area by BET method. The results showed the adsorption efficiency of the contaminant by the composite material studied in synthetic solution. The study found that the adsorption follows the Langmuir model, and the kinetics of adsorption follows the model of pseudosecond order

Caracterização batimétrica e fisicooceanográfica do canal de acesso ao porto de Cabedelo/PB: uma análise ambiental ao derrame de óleo

The State of Paraíba is one of the most dynamic states of Brazil, strategically located in the northeast, is notable for the excellent potential for integration of different transportation modes forming the states of Rio Grande do Norte, Pernambuco and Alagoas. The dynamic that occurs with port activity causes changes in the space where it is installed. And the elements of this space are always more than suffering direct or indirect influences as the flow in the port is expanded. Therefore, this region became subject to the accidental spillage of oil, because it presents a heavy traffic of ships of various sizes that can run aground or collide with oil causing accidental events. The study of geomorphological and sedimentological compositions of seafloor becomes important as more is known about the relationships between these parameters and associated fauna, and can identify their preferred habitats. The database background, acoustically collected along the proposed study area, is a wealth of information, which were duly examined, cataloged and made available. Such information can serve as an important tool, providing a geomorphological survey of the sedimentary area studied, and come to subsidize, in a flexible, future decision making. With the study area Port of Cabedelo, Paraíba - Brazil, this research aimed to evaluate the influence of the tidal surface and background in modeling the seabed, including the acquisition of information about the location of submerged rocky bodies and the depth of these bodies may turn out to be natural traps for the trapping of oil in case of leaks, and obtain the relationship between types of bed and the hydrodynamic conditions present in the region. In this context, for this study were collected bathymetric data (depth) and physical oceanographic (height of water column, water temperature, intensity and direction of currents, waves and turbidity), meteorological (rainfall, air temperature, humidity, winds and barometric pressure) of the access channel to the Port of Cabedelo / PB and its basin evolution (where the cruise ships dock), and includes tools of remote sensing (Landsat 7 ETM +, 2001), so that images and the results are integrated into Geographic Information Systems and used in the elaboration of measures aimed at environmental protection areas under the influence of this scale facilities, serving as a grant to prepare a contingency plan in case of oil spills in the region. The main findings highlight the techniques of using hydroacoustic data acquisition together bathymetric surveys of high and low frequency. From there, five were prepared in bathymetric pattern of Directorate of Hydrography and Navigation - DHN, with the depth in meters, on a scale of 1:2500 (Channel and Basin Evolution of Access to Port of Cabedelo), where there is a large extent possible beachrocks that hinder the movement of vessels in the port area, which can cause collisions, running aground and leaking oil. From the scatter diagram of the vectors of currents, it can be seen as the tidal stream and undergoes a channeling effect caused by the bidirectional effect of the tide (ebb and flood) in the basin of the Port of Cabedelo evolution in NW-direction SE and the highest speed of the currents occurs at low tide. The characterization weather for the period from 28/02 to 04/07/2010 values was within the expected average for the region of study. The multidisciplinary integration of products (digital maps and remote sensing images), proved to be efficient for the characterization of underwater geomorphological study area, reaching the aim to discriminate and enhance submerged structures, previously not visible in the images
