The effects of potential sea level rise on the shoreline and shore environment have been briefly examined by considering the interactions between sea level rise and relevant coastal processes. These interactions have been reviewed beginning with a discussion of the need to reanalyze previous estimates of eustatic sea level rise and compaction effects in water level measurement. This is followed by considerations on sea level effects on coastal and estuarine tidal ranges, storm surge and water level response, and interaction with natural and constructed shoreline features. The desirability to reevaluate the well known Bruun Rule for estimating shoreline recession has been noted. The mechanics of ground and surface water intrusion with reference to sea level rise are then reviewed. This is followed by sedimentary processes in the estuaries including wetland response. Finally comments are included on some probable effects of sea level rise on coastal ecosystems. These interactions are complex and lead to shoreline evolution (under a sea level rise) which is highly site-specific. Models which determine shoreline change on the basis of inundation of terrestrial topography without considering relevant coastal processes are likely to lead to erroneous shoreline scenarios, particularly where the shoreline is composed of erodible sedimentary material. With some exceptions, present day knowledge of shoreline response to hydrodynamic forcing is inadequate for long-term quantitative predictions. A series of interrelated basic and applied research issues must be addressed in the coming decades to determine shoreline response to sea level change with an acceptable degree of confidence.

Analisa o financiamento das campanhas, mostrando que os gastos eleitorais, de origem privada, têm crescido num ritmo exponencial. Em 2002, os gastos declarados à Justiça Eleitoral por partidos e candidatos nas campanhas para deputado federal alcançaram R$ 189,6 milhões; em 2010, esse valor chegou ao montante de R$ 908,2 milhões, um crescimento de 479% em oito anos. Na mesma direção, as campanhas presidenciais, que custaram R$ 94 milhões, em 2002, alcançaram a cifra de R$ 590 milhões em 2010, um crescimento de 627% em oito anos.
