The fissures aquifer northeast semi-arid Brazilian, present high text frequently of leave, with of low a hídric availability. The research has as objective main to analyze the components that inside influence in the salinity of the waterbearing fissures of an evaluation physicist-chemistry of the water, leading in consideration the physical interventions of the environment. One used techniques of interpretation of image of Landsat satellite -1999 and delimitation of the micro basin through the topographical map SUDENE. One identified waters of the NaCl type with Ca++ and Mg++ in secondary concentrations. The analyzed wells (15), had presented an average salinity of 5.147 mg/L of STD and a well only supplies drinking waters with 319 mg/L of STD. The recharge of the aquifer one if carries through for infiltration in the open fracture of ortognaisse it migmatization. The type and directions of the fracture do not control the STD. Relations between salinity and out let do not exist. The quality of the well of low salinity is identical the superficial waters (aquifer dam and alluvial). The studies of the meteoric erosion processes had evidenced that in the transformations of the rock in ground, the Ca++ and Na+ are taken for superficial waters. The treatment of the data chemical showed that the grade of Na+, Ca++, Mg++ and Cl-are controlled for the evaporation process, from only water that would have the qualities of superficial waters or the well of low salinity. Already the HCO3-grade is controlled for the precipitation of the dolomite. The STD of this aquifer one would be consequence of the high tax of evaporation of dams constructed in regions of plain topography. You leave them precipitated in deep argillaceous ones dry dams are led for the aquifer in first rains. The research suggests some recommendations for the use and exploitation of the water salinity in piscicultura, carcinicultura, culture of the grass-salt (Atriplex sp), among others

Northeastern Brazil is mainly formed by crystalline terrains (around 60% in area). Moreover, this region presents a semi-arid climate so that it is periodically subject to drought seasons. Furthermore, ground water quality extracted fromwells usually presents poor quality because of their high salinity contents. Nevertheless, ground water is still a very important source of water for human and animal consumption in this region. Well sitting in hard rocks terrains in Northeastern Brazil offers a mean success index of aboul 60%, given that a successful siting is defined by a well producing at least 0.5 m³/h. This low index reveals lack of knowledga about the true conditions of storage and percolation of ground water in crystalline rocks. Two models for structures storing and producing ground water in crystalline rocks in Northeastem Brazil have been proposed in the literature. The first model,tradnionally used for well sitting since the sixties are controlled by faults or fractures zones. This model is commonly referred, in Brazilian hydrogeological literature, as the "creek-crack" model (riacho-fenda in Portuguese). Sites appearing to present dense drainage network are preferred for water well siting - particularly at points where the drainages cross-cul each other. Field follow up work is usually based only on geological criteria. The second model is the "eluvio-alluvial through" (calha eluvio-aluvionar in Portuguese); it is also described in the literature but it is not yet incorporated in well sitting practice. This model is based on the hypothesis that reclilinear drainages can also be controlled by the folietion of the rock. Eventually, depending upon the degree of weathering, a through-shaped structure filled with sediments (alluvium and regolith) can be developed which can store and water can be produced from. Using severalfield case studies, this Thesis presents a thorough analysis ofthe two above cited models and proposes a new model. The analysis is based on an integrated methodological approach using geophysics and structural geology. Both land (Resitiviy and Ground Penetrating Radar- GPR) and aerogeophysical (magnetics and frequency domain eletromagnetics) surveys were used. Slructural analysis emphasized neolectonic aspects; in general, itwas found that fractures in the E-W direction are relatively open, as compared to fracturas inthe N-S direction, probably because E-W fractures were opened by the neotectonic stress regime in Northeastern Brazil, which is controlled by E-W compression and N-S extension. The riacho-fenda model is valid where drainages are controlled by fractures. The degree of fracturing and associated weathering dictale the hydrogeological potential of the structure. Field work in structural analogues reveals that subvertical fractures show consistent directions both in outcrop and aerophotograph scales. Geophysical surveys reveal subvertical conductive anomalies associated to the fracture network controlling the drainage; one of the borders of the conductive anomaly usually coincide wih the drainage. An aspect of particular importance to the validation of fracture control are the possible presence of relalively deep conductive anomalies wihoul continuation or propagalion to the surface. The conductive nature of lhe anomaly is due to the presence of wealhered rock and sedirnenls (alluvium and/or regolilh) storing ground waler which occur associated to the fracture network. Magnetic surveys are not very sensisnive to these structures.lf soil or covering sedirnents are resislive (> 100 Ohm.m), GPR can ba used to image precisely lhe fracture network. A major limialion of riacho-fenda model, revealed by GPR images, is associated to the fact thal subhorizontal fractures do play a very important role in connecting the fracture network, besides connect shallow recharge zones to relalively deep subvertical frecture zones. Iffractures play just a secondary control on the drainage, however, r/acho-fenda model may have a very limiled validny; in these cases, large portions oflhe drainage do nol coincide wilh frectures and mosl oflhewells localed in lhe drainage surrounding would resull dry. Usually, a secondary conlrol on lhe drainage by Ihefraclure networkcan be revealed only wilh detailed geophysical survey. The calha elClv1o-aluvlonarmodel is valid where drainages are conlrolled by folialion. The degree 01 wealhering 01 lhe lolialion planes dictales lhe hydrogeological polenlial 01 lhe slruclure. Outcrop analysis reveals Ihal lolialion and drainage direclions are parallel and Ihal no Iraclures, orfraclures wilh diflerent directions 01 lhe drainage direclion occur.

Algumas práticas agrícolas como o plantio direto pode afetar a lixiviação. Para estudar os efeitos desta prática, foi instalado um experimento de campo na área do Núcleo de Agronomia da Alta Mogiana, Instituto Agronômico de Campinas/Ribeirão Preto, de onde foram coletadas amostras de solos e água para estudos de herbicidas do grupo das triazinas: atrazina, simazina e ametrina. Foi instalado um experimento em área de cana colhida mecanicamente plantada com amendoim em diferentes sistemas de cultivo (plantio direto e plantio convencional) nas quais a cada 10 cm. foram retiradas amostras de solos até atingir 90 cm. Determinaram-se os seguintes parâmetros em laboratório: a) Densidade do solo, b) Porosidade total c) Microporosidade e d) Macroporosidade. Amostras de água coletada a cada três meses em poços da Prefeitura Municipal de Ribeirão Preto foram analisadas por GC-MS (cromatografia gasosa-espectrometria de massa). Não houve efeito dos sistemas de plantio na macro, micro e porosidade total. Houve apenas diferença significativa na densidade, sendo maior na camada superficial nos solos com plantio direto. Em todas as amostras de poços coletadas não foram detectados resíduos de triazinas, no limite de quantificação de 10 mg/L. Foram também reconstituídos os solos em colunas em laboratório e observou-se o movimento de atrazina e simazina no máximo até 20cm de profundidade. Não foi encontrado nenhum herbicida abaixo dos 20 cm. Para melhor entender os resultados, foi utilizado o simulador CMLS-94 "Chemical Movement in Layered Soils" e observou-se também que praticamente não houve diferença entre os resultados obtidos pelas simulações realizadas para plantios direto e convencional com relação à lixiviação das triazinas e que os valores de simulação indicaram que os produtos alcançam profundidades máximas de um metro, bem mais do que o encontrado nas colunas em laboratório.

A Embrapa Meio Ambiente tem desenvolvido trabalhos de avaliação de riscos de contaminação da água subterrânea do aqüífero Guarani, considerando as diferentes atividades agrícolas ao longo de suas áreas de recarga direta ou de afloramento em território brasileiro. Outras ações para essas áreas também estão em curso, entre as quais incluem-se as chamadas Boas Práticas Agrícolas (BPA?s). Como instrumento de apoio a esses trabalhos, propõe-se neste trabalho a caracterização dessas áreas por meio dos chamados Domínios Pedomorfoagroclimáticos, abrangendo os oito estados brasileiros por onde passa o aqüífero. Tais domínios, possibilitam melhor compreensão das características gerais e das particularidades de cada região, servindo de subsídio aos estudos de ordenamento agro-ambiental e à proposta de manejo agroecológico, fundamentais no planejamento com enfoque sustentável para as áreas de recarga direta ou de afloramento do aqüífero Guarani no Brasil.

O potencial de contaminação de águas subterrâneas por agrotóxicos depende da mobilidade do produto no solo, que pode ser avaliada de diferentes formas. Uma delas é através da estimativa de parâmetros que podem ser usados como índices relativos de mobilidade, tais como o coeficiente de adsorção de Freundlich. Este coeficiente foi determinado em três solos da Microbacia do Córrego do Espraiado, situada em Ribeirão Preto, SP. Observou-se baixo potencial de adsorção de tebutiurom, o que o torna potencialmente móvel nesses solos. Os resultados sugerem que a Microbacia, situada sobre o Aqüífero Guarani, é suscetível à indução do comprometimento da qualidade de águas subsuperficiais se não houver manejo adequado dos solos agrícolas, e ainda que os cuidados com a aplicação de tebutiurom em solos com menor teor de carbono orgânico e argila devem ser redobrados.

Este trabalho apresenta um estudo hidrogeológico realizado em um setor denominado aqüífero Cenozóico da bacia hidrográfica do rio Gravataí localizado na região nordeste do estado do Rio Grande do Sul. O aqüífero Cenozóico, dentro da área da bacia, tem uma abrangência de 88,2 km2 em uma extensão longitudinal de aproximadamente 17,0 km no sentido sudoeste-nordeste. Fundamentou-se este estudo na necessidade de se obter o diagnóstico do potencial hidrogeológico desta região visando estimar a capacidade do aqüífero. Tendo por objetivo definir um critério de prospecção de áreas potencialmente favoráveis para exploração de águas subterrâneas na região de ocorrência do aqüífero Cenozóico. Os elementos necessários para alimentar o modelo hidrogeológico conceitual foram obtidos através da integração de técnicas de sensoriamento remoto para a identificação de zonas de recarga, confinamento e descarga, geofísica para a obtenção das cotas de topo e base do aqüífero e geoprocessamento. Quanto a modelagem aplicada, considerando as simplificações adotadas, verificou-se que o aqüífero apresenta potencialidade razoável, mostrando ser possível prover municípios que hoje tem seu abastecimento feito por captações no rio Gravataí. O estudo mostrou também que tal aqüífero comporta-se como uma área de passagem da água advinda da recarga da Coxilha das Lombas para o Banhado Grande. Para toda área modelada os valores de drenança apresentaram-se negativos demonstrando que o aqüífero está cedendo água ao aqüífero freático. Este fato sugere ser possível a exploração do aqüífero livre ajustado ao confinado. A aplicação da metodologia proposta para o conhecimento técnico específico da área de estudo, apesar das limitações devidas à escassez de dados, oferece subsídios a uma melhor gestão da bacia e propicia o uso sustentável do seu manancial subterrâneo.

As águas subterrâneas são significantemente afetadas pelo ambiente deposicional no Sistema Aqüífero Granular Cenozóico. Os sedimentos terciários e quaternários da Planície Costeira do Rio Grande do Sul que ocorrem em Porto Alegre foram depositados em Sistemas de Laguna/Barreira que geraram depósitos de leques aluviais, fluviais, lacustres e deltáicos. O Sistema Aqüífero Granular Cenozóico na área estudada sofreu influência de transgressões e regressões marinhas iniciadas há 400 mil anos. No presente estudo foram analisadas 39 amostras de água subterrânea na região de Porto Alegre, que se destacam por possuir alto conteúdo de íons, em particular: cloreto (13 a 1680 mg/L), sulfato (4 a 500 mg/L), cálcio (0,9 a 125 mg/L), magnésio (0,7 a 154 mg/L) e sódio (17 a 740 mg/L), permitindo classificá-las como cloretada-cálcico-sódicas com elevados teores de sulfato. Os resultados físico-químicos foram tratados estatisticamente (análise fatorial e análise discriminante), o que permitiu identificar 4 grupos de águas, a partir dos parâmetros de maior correlação, que compreendem cloreto, potássio, cálcio, magnésio, sulfato, sódio, dureza e condutividade elétrica. A dissolução de sais de ambiente marinho ou mixohalino associada com condições hidrodinâmicas de fluxos de baixa velocidade e elevado tempo de residência, são fatores decisivos para a existência dos vários tipos hidroquímicos. O modelamento geoquímico indicou subsaturação em fluorita, halita e gipsita, enquanto calcita e dolomita tendem a saturação. Por outro lado, os cálculos indicam supersaturação em fluorapatita, gibsita, caolinita e goetita.

The city of Natal comprises an area of about 170 km² (65,63 squares miles). The Dunas-Barreiras Aquifer is the most important reservoir of the coastal basin of RN. It is being responsible for the water supplying of about 70% of the population, however, due to the sewage disposal system by cesspools and drains, it is presently affected in a great extent by nitrates contamination. Thus, the present work proposes to research the utilization of contaminated water by nitrates of this fountainhead and find cost of the potable water through the ionic exchange technology. This technology consists in the removal of mineral salts by the exchange of cations for one ion of hydrogen (H+), through the passage of water by cationic resin bed and, secondly, by the exchange of the anions for hydroxyl ions (OH-) through a anionic resin bed. The obtained results have showed the waters derived from fountains, big water holes and shallow wells were microbiologically contaminated, while the waters derived from deep wells (above 70 m 76,58 yards) were free of contamination. Thus, only these ones are suitable to the use of ionic technology. The experiments were conducted with the resin IMAC-HP-555 such as kinetic, thermodynamic, and adsorption by fixed bed studies, being obtained several project variables for the experimental column, as follow: work temperature of 25oC; resin maximum capacity maximum e mean of adsorption ==0,01692 g NO3-1/g R e 0,0110 g NO3-1/g R, respectively. On the experimental column were performed breakthrough tests which pointed for an average ideal average speed of work of 13.2 m / h, with an average efficiency of 45% of adsorption, an optimal concentration of NaCl desorption of 8%, and an ideal desorption time of 80 minutes for the equilibrium conditions of water from the Dunas-Barreiras aquifer. Scale projection for ion-exchange column for denitrification, for these variables, using a computer modeling programme, to project the column of ion exchange ROREX-420/2000, obtained a cost for the drinking water denitrified by this system of R$ 0,16 / m3

This MSc dissertation presents the results of a research carried out in a 500 km2 area in the Nísia Floresta county. The main goal of the research was to evaluate fault influence on hidrology features of aquifers and lakes, mainly in the Barreiras Group and in the Bonfim lake cluster respectively. The Precambrian crystalline basement is made of Caicó Complex rocks. They are capped by cretaceous sedimentary rocks and by cenozoic sedimentary rocks. Only the latter outcrop in the study area, wheareas the former are described in boreholes. Faults cut across all stratigraphic units and their main trends are NW, NE and E-W, which have been generated by E-W compression. Subordinate N-S trending faults also take place and have been generated by N-S oriented compression. Fault controlled hydrologic features are observed throughout the study area. There are sudden changes in saturated thicknesses of the Barreiras Aquifer due to vertical displacement of the Barreiras Group. The most important underground water source of the Bonfim Lake is related to abrupt thickness changes of the aquifer. In addition, the main faults control the underground drainage network and, probably, change in direction of equipotential surfaces seen on the potenciometric map. Regarding the surface hydrologic features, faults also control river and stream channels, as well as lake origin and shapes. The Bonfim Lake, in particular, has its peculiar shape, which follows NW and NE lineaments, and origin related to faulting and probably underground carstics processes

A site investigation program was carried out to detect salt-water intrusions in a shallow sedimentary aquifer based on electrical resistivity measurements. The site is located close to Paranaguá harbor, in the Paraná State, Brasil. At this site, high chloride concentration contaminated shallow water wells used to supply water for local industries. The site investigation program included a fieldwork, dipole-dipole electrical profiling, resistivity piezocone tests, physical-chemical analysis of sampled water and interpretation of borehole logs. The resistivity piezocone tests provided two simultaneous information; the soil stratigraphy at a very detailed level and a quasi-continuous resistivity profile. Both information adequately complemented dipole-dipole electrical profiling test data. The integration of all test data allowed identifying the contaminated areas as well as guided the location of new water wells to be installed in this area.

This work evaluated the hydrogeochemistry of the Guarani Aquifer in the urban area of Ribeirão Preto, São Paulo State. Thirty one sampling points were established and it was carried out field campaigns in 7 and 8 July 2005, analyzing the following parameters: conductivity, temperature, pH, turbidity, color, dry residue, dissolved oxygen, Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+, K+, Fe3+, Al3+, HCO3-, SO42-, PO43-, NO3-, Cl- and F-. The results indicated that the groundwaters in the urban area of Ribeirão Preto pH possess slightly acid, low conductivity, turbidity, color and dissolved oxygen inside the limits established for drinking waters. The ionic composition indicated that the groundwaters have low cations and anions concentration, being they classified as soft water and calcium-bicarbonated. Statistical tests suggested that conductivity and pH are controlled for the calcite dissolution (CaCO3) during the water/rock interaction process. Besides, it is possible to conclude that the high NO3- and PO43- concentrations found in the groundwater in the urban area of Ribeirão Preto are originated due to anthropogenic activities.
