(Table 2) Oxygen isotope composition of authigenic and detrital phosphates from ODL Leg 201 sites

Many (bio)geochemical processes that bring about changes in sediment chemistry normally begin at the sediment-water interface, continue at depth within the sediment column and may persist throughout the lifetime of sediments. Because of the differential reactivity of sedimentary phosphate phases in response to diagenesis, dissolution/precipitation and biological cycling, the oxygen isotope ratios of phosphate (d18OP) can carry a distinct signature of these processes, as well as inform on the origin of specific P phases. Here, we present results of sequential sediment extraction (SEDEX) analyses combined with d18OP measurements, aimed at characterizing authigenic and detrital phosphate phases in continental margin sediments from three sites (Sites 1227, 1228 and 1229) along the Peru Margin collected during ODP Leg 201. Our results show that the amount of P in different reservoirs varies significantly in the upper 50 m of the sediment column, but with a consistent pattern, for example, detrital P is highest in siliciclastic-rich layers. The d18OP values of authigenic phosphate vary between 20.2 per mil and 24.8 per mil and can be classified into at least two major groups: authigenic phosphate precipitated at/near the sediment-water interface in equilibrium with paleo-water oxygen isotope ratios (d18Ow) and temperature, and phosphate derived from hydrolysis of organic matter (Porg) with subsequent incomplete to complete re-equlibration and precipitated deeper in the sediments column. The d18OP values of detrital phosphate, which vary from 7.7-15.4 per mil, suggest two possible terrigenous sources and their mixtures in different proportions: phosphate from igneous/metamorphic rocks and phosphate precipitated in source regions in equilibrium with d18Ow of meteoric water. More importantly, original isotopic compositions of at least one phase of authigenic phosphates and all detrital phosphates are not altered by diagenesis and other biogeochemical changes within the sediment column. These findings help to understand the origin and provenance of P phases and paleoenvironmental conditions at/near the sediment-water interface, and to infer post-depositional activities within the sediment column.

(Table 1) Sea surface temperature reconstruction for eastern equatorial Pacific surface sediment samples

Significant uncertainties persist in the reconstruction of past sea surface temperatures in the eastern equatorial Pacific, especially regarding the amplitude of the glacial cooling and the details of the post-glacial warming. Here we present the first regional calibration of alkenone unsaturation in surface sediments versus mean annual sea surface temperatures (maSST). Based on 81 new and 48 previously published data points, it is shown that open ocean samples conform to established global regressions of Uk'37 versus maSST and that there is no systematic bias from seasonality in the production or export of alkenones, or from surface ocean nutrient concentrations or salinity. The flattening of the regression at the highest maSSTs is found to be statistically insignificant. For the near-coastal Peru upwelling zone between 11-15°S and 76-79°W, however, we corroborate earlier observations that Uk'37 SST estimates significantly over-estimate maSSTs at many sites. We posit that this is caused either by uncertainties in the determination of maSSTs in this highly dynamic environment, or by biasing of the alkenone paleothermometer toward El Niño events as postulated by Rein et al. (2005).

(Table T2) Sulfur isotopes of pore water from ODP Leg 201 sites

Fifty-seven interstitial water samples from six sites (Ocean Drilling Program Sites 1225-1229 and 1231) in the eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean and the Peru margin were analyzed for the stable sulfur isotopic composition (34S/32S) of dissolved sulfate along with major and minor ions. With the exception of Site 1231, sulfate from the interstitial fluids (d34S values as much as 89 per mil vs. the SF6-based Vienna-Canyon Diablo troilite standard) is found at depth to be enriched in 34S with respect to modern seawater sulfate (d34S = ~21 per mil), indicating that microbial sulfate reduction (MSR) took place to different extents at all investigated sites. Deeper sediments at Sites 1228 and 1229 are additionally influenced by diffusion of a sulfate-rich brine that has already undergone sulfate reduction. The intensity of MSR depends on the availability of substrate (organic matter), sedimentation conditions, and the active bacterial community structure. Formation of isotopically heavy diagenetic barite at the sulfate-methane transition zone is expected at Sites 1227 (one front), 1229 (two fronts), and probably Site 1228. At Site 1231, the constant sulfur isotopic composition of sulfate and concentrations of minor pore water ions indicate that suboxic (essentially iron and manganese oxide based) diagenesis dominates and no net MSR occurs.

(Table T1) Age determination of seven ODP Leg 201 sites

As part of a wider paleoclimate and paleoceanographic study of Holocene-upper Pleistocene laminated sediments from the eastern equatorial Pacific and Peru continental margin, we completed 32 accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) 14C dates from cores recovered during Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 201. Sample preparation and measurement were carried out at the ANTARES AMS facility, Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO), in Sydney, Australia (Lawson et al., 2000, doi:10.1016/S0168-583X(00)00276-7; Fink et al., 2004, doi:10.1016/j.nimb.2004.04.025). Although the sediments are predominantly diatomaceous oozes (D'Hondt, Jørgensen, Miller, et al., 2003, doi:10.2973/odp.proc.ir.201.2003), they contain sufficient inorganic (e.g., foraminifer tests and nannofossil plates) and organic (Meister et al., 2005, doi:10.2973/odp.proc.sr.201.105.2005) carbon to allow 14C dating. These dates permitted us to reconstruct a history of sediment accumulation over the past 20 k.y., particularly on the Peru continental margin. In this report we present 14C AMS dates and other pertinent data from cores from Sites 1227, 1228, and 1229 collected during Leg 201 at the Peru continental margin.

Structure and palaeoenvironmental implications of inter-branch coenosteum-rich skeleton in corymbose Acropora species

Coral reefs provide an increasingly important archive of palaeoclimate data that can be used to constrain climate model simulations. Reconstructing past environmental conditions may also provide insights into the potential of reef systems to survive changes in the Earth’s climate. Reef-based palaeoclimate reconstructions are predominately derived from colonies of massive Porites, with the most abundant genus in the Indo-Pacific—Acropora—receiving little attention owing to their branching growth trajectories, high extension rates and secondary skeletal thickening. However, inter-branch skeleton (consisting of both coenosteum and corallites) near the bases of corymbose Acropora colonies holds significant potential as a climate archive. This region of Acropora skeleton is atypical, having simple growth trajectories with parallel corallites, approximately horizontal density banding, low apparent extension rates and a simple microstructure with limited secondary thickening. Hence, inter-branch skeleton in Acropora bears more similarities to the coralla of massive corals, such as Porites, than to traditional Acropora branches. Cyclic patterns of Sr/Ca ratios in this structure suggest that the observed density banding is annual in nature, thus opening up the potential to use abundant corymbose Acropora for palaeoclimate reconstruction.

Diário da Constituinte [gravação de vídeo] : [programa n. 201]

No Plenário da Assembleia Nacional Constituinte (ANC), discussão de emendas populares que tratam dos direitos e da aposentadoria dos trabalhadores e da reforma urbana. O representante da Arquidiocese do Rio de Janeiro, Carlos Roberto Castro, defende uma emenda em favor do usucapião nas favelas cariocas, após cinco anos, e em terrenos urbanos abandonados, após dois anos. Adib Jorge, representante sindical, defende emenda popular que prevê aposentadoria mais justa aos trabalhadores. O Deputado Farabulini Júnior (PTB-SP) defende a paridade dos salários entre os trabalhadores da ativa e os aposentados e pensionistas. Em nome da CUT (Central Única dos Trabalhadores), o Deputado Paulo Paim (PT-RS) fala em defesa da emenda popular dos direitos dos trabalhadores e declara que o eixo dessa emenda é a estabilidade no emprego, as quarenta horas semanais e o direito de greve. Na próxima Sessão Extraordinária serão discutidas emendas populares que tratam da estabilidade no emprego, participação nos lucros e democratização da administração das empresas, reforma urbana, transporte coletivo e moradia popular. O projeto de Constituição do Relator Bernardo Cabral permite o pluralismo sindical. O Deputado Juarez Antunes (PDT-RJ) considera que o pluralismo sindical só favorece a classe empresarial. Marival Campos, Presidente do Sindicato dos Petroleiros-BA, informa que é uma tentativa do patronato de dividir os trabalhadores cada vez mais. Luiz Machado, Presidente do Sindicato dos Urbanitários-RJ, afirma que será desenvolvido um trabalho junto aos parlamentares para que esse dispositivo não seja aprovado. O Deputado Mario Lima (PMDB-BA) informa que só deve haver um sindicato de cada categoria em cada base territorial. O Deputado Afif Domingos (PL-SP) considera que nada impede a coexistência de mais de um sindicato dentro da mesma base, contanto que apenas um seja o representante nos dissídios da categoria perante a lei. O Deputado Paes Landim (PFL-PI) afirma que tanto faz a unicidade ou pluralismo, desde que os sindicatos tenham liberdade e possam atuar livres da interferência do Estado. O Deputado Augusto Carvalho (PCB-DF) declara que só se os trabalhadores se unirem em um único sindicato terão força suficiente para poder enfrentar o patronato.

Aquisição social onerosa e privada da propriedade: artigo 1228, 4 e 5 do código civil

A pesquisa proposta pretende esclarecer os pontos obscuros e controvertidos do artigo 1228, 4 e 5 do Código Civil, tendo por finalidade a busca da efetividade de tal dispositivo legal, que possui, na sua essência, o reconhecimento do direito fundamental de moradia e, ainda, tutela o direito ao trabalho. O dispositivo em questão rompe com o paradigma da posse como mera sentinela avançada do direito de propriedade e reconhece a defesa da posse autônoma exercida por aqueles que realmente cumprem com a sua função social. A partir do preenchimento dos requisitos previstos na lei, concede-se a legitimação da posse aos possuidores e, com o pagamento da indenização ao proprietário, converte-se a posse em direito de propriedade. Dessa forma, o instituto visa não apenas à regularização fundiária de áreas urbanas ou rurais, mas, principalmente, à efetividade dos direitos fundamentais de moradia e trabalho, que dão substância ao principio norteador de qualquer sociedade civilizada: o princípio da dignidade da pessoa humana. Assim sendo, na busca pela efetividade do dispositivo, o estudo tem ainda como finalidade desenvolver a natureza jurídica específica do instituto, reconhecendo-o como um modo autônomo de aquisição onerosa do direito de propriedade, não se equiparando a formas de desapropriação ou de usucapião do direito de propriedade.
