Simulações de onda de cheia na sub-bacia do Ribeirão Claro - SP

Watersheds are considered important study units when it comes to environmental planning, with regard to the optimal use of water resources. Water scarcity is predicted and feared by many societies, and proves to be an increasingly tangible problem nowadays. Still from the perspective of extreme events, this dissertation considers the study of flood waves in the sub-basin of the stream Claro, which belongs to the Corumbataí watershed. - SP, since thay can also have devastating effects for the population, A Decision Support System for Flood Routing Analysis in Complex Basins, ABC 6 software was applied in order to obtain hydrographs and peak flows in the sub-basin of the stream Claro, for return periods of 10 and 100 years, aiming to comprise events of different magnitudes. The model Soil Conservation Service (SCS) and the triangular SCS hydrograph were adopted for the simulations. Simultaneously, the Kokei Uehara method was applied for the obtainment of peak flow values under the same conditions, seeking to compare results. Data collection was performed using geoprocessing tools. For data entry in ABC 6, the fragmentation of sub-basin of the stream Claro was necessary, which generated 7 small watersheds, in order to fulfill a software demand, as the maximum drainage area it accepts is 50km² for each watershed analyzed. For RT = 10 and 100 years, respectively, the results of peak flow with use of ABC 6 were 46.10 and 95.45 m³/s, while for Kokei Uehara method, the results were 47.17 and 65.26 m³/s. The adoption of a single value of discretization time for all watersheds was indicated as limitation of ABC 6, which interfered in the final results. Kokei method Uehara considered the sub-basin of the stream Claro as a whole, which reduced the error accumulation probability

Caracterização geomorfológica das áreas associadas a zonas de falhas na bacia de Taubaté SP

Landscape is the result of interaction between tectonic, weathering and pedogenetic processes, so it is necessary to understand the morphogenesis and relate it to the landforms and landscape. Therefore, this project comprises a geomorphological characterization of some areas associated with the fault zones of Taubaté Basin, at the surroundings of the cities from São José dos Campos to Taubaté SP, emphasizing the Quaternary landscape evolution, where the normal faults played an important role in controling and they were originated, mostly, from the reactivation of Precambrian fault zones by tectonic action. The rift valley scenario is highlighted in the region, identifying the sharp relief from the basin boundary, featuring both Serra do Mar and Serra da Mantiqueira, and a central depressed area where the Taubaté Basin is located. Deforming or modifying basin features are identified, promoting the rearrangement and conditioning of the drainage network and relief, which indicates the presence of morphostructures, conducting to the deduction of a late tectonic process

Análise morfométrica e simulação das áreas de preservação permanente de uma bacia hidrográfica

The morphometric characterization of watersheds is of great importance in assisting the planning of these areas to preserve the environment and maintain the quantity and quality of water production. The aim of this study was to characterize the morphology and simulate the areas of permanent preservation according to the Brazilian Forest Code of watershed of the Água-Fria stream. The studied area is located in the municipality of Bofete-SP, between the geographic coordinates: 48° 09' 30" to 48° 18' 30" longitude (WGr) and 22° 58' 30" to 23° 04' 30" latitude S. The results showed a 5th order micro watershed with an area of 152.43 km2 and low drainage density of 1.04 km/km2. Circularity was 0.51 and form factor was 0.41, which is considered low, and therefore with an oblong/oval shape. The sinuosity index of 1.29 revealed a tendency of rectilinear channels with compactness coefficient value of 1.38 and distance of runoff flow of 520m. Simulation of areas of permanent preservation shows an ideal model as the way springs and watercourses should be protected according to the Brazilian Forest Code, amounting to an area of 10.02 km2.

Diagnóstico de conflitos em áreas de preservação permanente na bacia do Rio Capivara - Botucatu (SP)

The permanent preservation areas (PPA) established by Brazilian law are there to protect the natural environment. With the expansion of space occupied by man and development of economic activities in these areas were engaged in conflicts characterized PPA, where the use is other than the natural vegetation. According to these paradigms work aims to raise these conflict areas in the River Basin Capivara, Botucatu (SP) with the help of GIS Ilwis 3.4, topographic maps of IBGE and satellite images CBERS 2B. The map was generated from PPA in the GIS by distance calculation in relation to drainage, springs and break line on Cuesta de Botucatu. The classes of land use and natural vegetation were determined by interpretation of satellite images and field visits to check their veracity. With the cutting of the map of land use and natural vegetation in relation to PPA unit it was determined that the total 44,63% PPA is in conflict occupied by pasture, forest plantation, orange, annual crops, farms and irrigated rice project in lowland. This diagnostic characterizes the degradation of the environment and highlights the need to harmonize the economic and urban development with the preservation of the environment to ensure sustainability of the region.

Compartimentação fisiográfica para análise ambiental do potencial erosivo a partir das propriedades da rede de drenagem

O presente trabalho teve como objetivo compartimentar a sub-bacia do Baixo Rio Piracicaba - SP, em unidades homogêneas quanto à potencialidade à erosão visando a subsidiar o gerenciamento ambiental. A importância desta pesquisa concentra-se no intenso desenvolvimento dos processos erosivos na área em foco e na sua importância socioeconômica em níveis estadual e nacional. O procedimento adotado para atingir o objetivo foi a análise da rede de drenagem e dos lineamentos obtidos pelas imagens TM/Landsat-5. O resultado obtido foi a divisão da área em quatro compartimentos quanto à potencialidade à erosão: muito alta, alta, média e baixa. Concluiu-se que a área estudada é heterogênea, com regiões sujeitas a diferentes intensidades de processos erosivos e que a sistemática adotada se mostrou eficiente para caracterizar as compartimentações fisiográficas da potencialidade erosiva, e essas compartimentações podem e devem ser utilizadas como ponto de partida para estudos ambientais e de utilização do território, em consonância com o desenvolvimento sustentável.

Estudo paramétrico da recuperação de óleo no processo de drenagem gravitacional com injeção de CO2

The gas injection has become the most important IOR process in the United States. Furthermore, the year 2006 marks the first time the gas injection IOR production has surpassed that of steam injection. In Brazil, the installation of a petrochemical complex in the Northeast of Brazil (Bahia State) offers opportunities for the injection of gases in the fields located in the Recôncavo Basin. Field-scale gas injection applications have almost always been associated with design and operational difficulties. The mobility ratio, which controls the volumetric sweep, between the injected gas and displaced oil bank in gas processes, is typically unfavorable due to the relatively low viscosity of the injected gas. Furthermore, the difference between their densities results in severe gravity segregation of fluids in the reservoirs, consequently leading to poor control in the volumetric sweep. Nowadays, from the above applications of gas injection, the WAG process is most popular. However, in attempting to solve the mobility problems, the WAG process gives rise to other problems associated with increased water saturation in the reservoir including diminished gas injectivity and increased competition to the flow of oil. The low field performance of WAG floods with oil recoveries in the range of 5-10% is a clear indication of these problems. In order to find na effective alternative to WAG, the Gas Assisted Gravity Drainage (GAGD) was developed. This process is designed to take advantage of gravity force to allow vertical segregation between the injected CO2 and reservoir crude oil due to their density difference. This process consists of placing horizontal producers near the bottom of the pay zone and injecting gás through existing vertical wells in field. Homogeneous models were used in this work which can be extrapolated to commercial application for fields located in the Northeast of Brazil. The simulations were performed in a CMG simulator, the STARS 2007.11, where some parameters and their interactions were analyzed. The results have shown that the CO2 injection in GAGD process increased significantly the rate and the final recovery of oil

Geotecnologia aplicada na análise de bacias hidrográficas e rede de drenagem: estudo das bacias hidrográficas do Murucutu e Aurá, Belém, Pará.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar variáveis físicas das bacias do rio Murucutu e rio Aurá (BHMA) usando geotecnologias para subsidiar o uso e a conservação desses recursos hídricos. Foi utilizada imagem do ?Shuttle Radar Topography Mission? (SRTM) na modelagem e identificação de características físicas, bem como o uso de sistema geográfico de informação (SIG), técnicas de geoprocessamento, quantificação de áreas das bacias, redes de drenagens, hierarquias fluviais, área de influência de nascentes. As análises dos dados foram realizadas na ferramenta Q.Gis 2.8, versão ?Wien?, integradas ao programa ?Terrain Analysis Using Digital Elevation Models? (TauDEM). Os resultados evidenciaram que as bacias do rio Murucutu e do rio Aurá possuem 37% de área antropizadas. A bacia do rio Aurá possui maior cobertura florestal do que a bacia do rio Murucutu. A ordem hierárquica do rio Aurá é de 5°ordem e do Murucutu é de 4ºordem, evidenciando que o Aurá é mais extenso com maior ramificação dos canais em relação ao Murucutu. 34% das nascentes estão em áreas urbanas na bacia do rio Murucutu. Conclui-se que com a análise melhora-se o entendimento dos elementos físicos, em especial ligados à hidrografia como também, desenvolve-se um produto de importância substancial para estudos morfométricos, principalmente para subsidiar o gerenciamento e outorgas do direito de uso prioritários da água, controle de enchentes, potencial de abastecimento hídrico, vulnerabilidade ao processo erosivo, dinâmica de transporte de poluentes, principais vias de contaminação hídrica, entre outras aplicações diretas.

MUDANÇAS NA HIDROGRAFIA DA BACIA DO ARROIO CASTELHANO, RS, BRASIL, ENTRE AS DÉCADAS DE 1980 E 2010

Este trabalho avalia as intervenções humanas na rede de drenagem da Bacia hidrográfica do arroio Castelhano, RS, Brasil. Nesta bacia de 675,3 km2 e com 66% de sua área no município de Venâncio Aires, tradicionalmente ocupada por pequenas propriedades sem maiores intervenções para o aproveitamento ou o descarte dos recursos hídricos, a modernização agrícola e o crescimento urbano a partir da década de1970, começaram a demandar controles dos regimes hidrológicos. Registros documentaram obras do PROVÁRZEAS e do DNOS, nas décadas de 1980 e 1990 e a análise em SIG de mapas da década de 1970 e imagem de satélite de 2007 mostrou que a hidrografia foi toda rearranjada: o arroio Grande I teve a extensão do seu baixo curso reduzida em 23%, enquanto o arroio Castelhano sofreu uma redução de 30%, devido a canalizações na sua várzea. A intervenção humana nos canais de drenagem alterou a dinâmica do curso principal, de tal forma que concordamos com Pigeon (2005) quando afirma que as sociedades são apenas parcialmente vítimas dos perigos naturais, pois elas preparam consideravelmente seu próprio risco.
