Multiple Island Chains in Primary Resonances.

We analyse the dynamics of a relativistic particle moving in a uniform magnetic field and perturbed by a stationary electrostatic wave. We show that a pulsed wave produces an infinite number of perturbing terms with the same winding number. The perturbation coupling alters the number of island chains as a function of the parameters of the wave. We also observe that the number of chains in is always even if the number of islands in each chain is odd.

Heat island simulations in Londrina city, Brazil

This work aims to study the urban heat island on North region of Parana state, Brazil and the influence of land use and urban settlements on the intensity and frequency of occurrence of these events. Through atmospheric modeling whith WRF/Chem model two simulations were made with different land and use files, one with the original land use another obtained from a composition of MODIS-Landsat imagery. The simulations showed good skills compared to observed data. Urban areas presented higher temperatures. Landsat land use has represented better urban heat islands (UHI), the gradient between urban and rural areas was well demonstrated and the correlation coefficient was above 0.92. The model underestimated the maximum values and overestimated the minimum compared with observed data in both simulations.
