Los arreglos institucionales y políticas públicas en Brasil : Un análisis preliminar sobre el desarrollo urbano-territorial en Pernambuco

El presente trabajo pretende analizar teóricamente los arreglos institucionales y su relación con la política pública brasileña, centrándose en las perspectivas de "desarrollo" urbano-territorial de las ciudades de Brasil. Está siendo examinada de forma preliminar, a cargo de la capacidad de los arreglos institucionales en las ciudades de su marcha funcional, porque cuanto mayor sea el franqueo será una mayor cantidad de intervenciones de agentes exógenos sobre el territorio. Por otro lado, las ciudades más pequeñas no tendrán una funcionalidad y una complejidad muy grandes, por eso serán las actuaciones endógenas que dominarán el territorio - los arreglos institucionales locales. Para la promoción del debate ha sido insertados dos estudios prácticos: el primero en la ciudad de Recife Metropolitana y sus relaciones con las principales desarrolladoras de vivienda en la intervención de las políticas públicas de planificación urbana y otra en la ciudad media de Petrolina-PE con el caso de la aplicación de la incubadora do Vale do Sao Francisco (INVASF). Finalmente es importante tener en cuenta que es un debate preliminar en la que requiere más pruebas (estudios y investigaciones) sobre la relación entre los arreglos institucionales (endógenos y exógenos) promotores de las políticas públicas y el tamaño de las ciudades

Discarge compilation from The Global River Discharge (RivDIS) Project

The Global River Discharge (RivDIS) data set contains monthly discharge measurements for 1018 stations located throughout the world. The period of record varies widely from station to station, with a mean of 21.5 years. These data were digitized from published UNESCO archives by Charles Voromarty, Balaze Fekete, and B.A. Tucker of the Complex Systems Research Center (CSRC) at the University of New Hampshire. River discharge is typically measured through the use of a rating curve that relates local water level height to discharge. This rating curve is used to estimate discharge from the observed water level. The rating curves are periodically rechecked and recalibrated through on-site measurement of discharge and river stage.

Aperfeicoamento do sistema de producao de melancia em areas irrigadas.

A cultura da melancia, variedade Charleston Gray, vem se comportando muito bem no submedio Sao Francisco, no Nordeste do Brasil, a producao estilar vem limitando o desenvolvimento da cultura na regiao, provocando perdas que podem atingir 40% da produtividade. Este trabalho apresenta os resultados de um estudo conduzido com dois tratamentos, um modificado e outro tradicional. Este representou a temologia dos produtores, aquele utilizou as inovacoes tecnologicas recomendades pela pesquisa. O principal resultado obtido com o tratamento diz respeito a reducao da podridao estilar.

Fontes, niveis e epocas de aplicacao de nitrogenio na produtividade do tomateiro rasteiro.

Realizaram-se dois experimentos, um em 1981 e outro em 1984, com a cultura do tomateiro rasteiro (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill) em cultivo irrigado, num Latossolo Vermelho-Amarelo do Submedio Sao Francisco, para avaliar o efeito de fontes, niveis e epocas de aplicacao de nitrogenio (N) na produtividade dessa cultura. As fontes de N estudadas foram ureia e sulfato de amonio. No primeiro experimento os niveis foram: 0, 50, 100 e 150 kg/ha de N aplicados nas seguintes epocas: a) toda dose por ocasiao do transplantio das mudas; b) metade da dose no transplantio e a outra metade 30 dias depois; e c) um terco da dose no transplantio seguido de igual quantidade aos 25 e 50 dias depois. No segundo experimento, foram testados os niveis 0, 40, 80, 120 e 160 kg/ha de N parcelados em duas epocas, 1/3 no transplantio e 2/3 30 dias depois. Nao houve diferencas significativas entre as fontes, nem entre as epocas de aplicacao de N. No primeiro experimento, foi estimado um nivel otimo economico de 100 kg/ha de N que proporcionou uma produtividade de 28 t/ha de frutos. No segundo experimento, esse nivel foi de 97 kg/ha de N com produtividade de 67 t/ha de frutos. Essas produtividades foram 111% e 50% superiores aquelas obtidas no nivel zero para o primeiro e segundo experimento, respectivamente.

Influencia de fontes e niveis de nitrogenio na cultura da cana-de-acucar irrigada.

Realizou-se um experimento em um Vertissolo do Submedio Sao Francisco, para avaliar a influencia de fontes e niveis de nitrogenio na produtiivdade da cana-de-acucar (Saccharum officinarum L.). O delineamento usado foi o de blocos ao acaso, com tres repeticoes e 14 tratamentos dispostos da seguinte maneira: 0, 40, 80, 120, 160 e 200 kg/ha de N sob a forma de ureia; 40, 80, 120, 160 e 200 kg/ha de N, sob a forma de sulfato de amonio; e 80, 120 e 160 kg/ha de N, sendo 50% sob a forma de ureia aplicada no plantio e 50% sob a forma de sulfato de amonio aplicado 120 dias apos o plantio. Os resultados mostraram que nao houve influencia das fontes de nitrogenio na produtividade da cana. Os niveis de nitrogenio exerceram uma influencia positiva e altamente significativa na produtividade. A dose economica de nitrogenio foi a de 213 kg/ha de N. Houve correlacoes lineares e positivas dos teores de nitrogenio na folha com os niveis de N aplicado e com a produtividade da cana. Nenhuma influencia foi verificada dos niveis de nitrogenio nos teores de acucar da cana.

Well-preserved Late Paleoproterozoic volcanic centers in the Sao Felix do Xingu region, Amazonian Craton, Brazil

The Amazonian craton in the Sao Felix do Xingu city, southeast region of the Para state, north of Brazil, hosts exceptionally well-preserved Paleoproterozoic bimodal magmatic units grouped in the Sobreiro and Santa Rosa formations. These formations are correlated to the Uatuma magmatic event, which is largely distributed in the Amazonian craton occupying more than 1,500,000 km(2). Geological mapping and petrographical observations reveal distinct spectra of volcanic facies in both formations. The basal calc-alkaline Sobreiro Formation is composed mainly of andesitic and dacitic lava flows and associated volcaniclastic facies of autoclastic origin, with subordinate pyroclastic flow deposits. This formation shows inferred eruption style that is similar to those in Flood Basalt Provinces, with rare scutulum-type lava shields. The upper A-type Santa Rosa Formation was generated by multicyclic explosive and effusive episodes predominantly associated with large fissures and is materialized by voluminous ignimbrites with subordinated ash-fall tuff, crystal tuff, lapilli-tuff, co-ignimbritic breccias, rhyolitic dikes and domes, and associated granitic porphyries and equigranular granitic intrusions. Ignimbrite and rhyolite dikes reveal conspicuous vertical flow pattern pointing to a fissure-controlled eruption, similar to Sierra Madre Occidental ignimbrite province. The proposed evolutionary model for the Sao Felix do Xingu units differs from those of other occurrences related to the Uatuma magmatic event in the Amazonian craton, characterized by predominance of A-type volcanism and contemporaneous granites.

Landscape reshaping of the asylum of san francisco de paula, located in jaboticabal, Sao Paulo State, Brazil

It is a commonly known fact that there are elderly who have no family or who do not receive any kind of help from their relatives, as the family does not normally have good financial conditions to help them. These elderly live in private or public shelters and generally, they do not have enough money to cover all the necessary costs, and are forced to survive from donations. Those shelters are based, primarily, on nutrition and health. Leisure and wellbeing are usually treated with little attention, but it could be obtained in a simple and effective way: green areas, which normally exist at the site, are often misused, so they can become rest areas through simple landscape projects. It is important to mention that a garden is not just a beautiful place, but it becomes important for the daily life of older people. The objective of this work was to study the need for contemplative leisure and labor in order to improve the life quality of the elderly that live at the San Francisco de Paula Asylum, in Jaboticabal City, Sao Paulo State, Brazil. In this study, a topographic and a photographic survey was conducted and an analysis of the local ground was done. The preferences of the employees and the visitors of the building were also recorded, as well as the critical points of the area. After this primary analysis, the landscape planning was done, with the help of the AutoCAD 2004 software, prioritizing the use of plants that are not dangerous and that are easy maintained. An orchid nursery was also created in order to provide weekly workshops of orchid cultivation.
