Ìtàn - oralidades e escritas: um estudo de caso sobre cadernos de hunkó e outras escritas no Ìlè Aṣé Omi Larè Ìyá Sagbá

Ìtàn, termo em yorubá que significa mitos, histórias de òrìṣà. Histórias que têm por tradição, dentro dos terreiros de candomblé, serem repassadas de geração em geração aos iniciados no culto, através da oralidade. O ìtàn estabelece as características pessoais dos òrìṣà e os caminhos percorridos por eles através de enredos que envolvem o sagrado e o humano e acabam por determinar ritos, personalidades e identificações dentro do terreiro de candomblé. Rituais que envolvem tradições e segredos. Os ìtàn justificam, validam a organização dos materiais ritualísticos utilizados em cada situação específica e a execução dos rituais, fazendo relação direta com os arquétipos dos òrìṣà. Como os segredos são mantidos através das gerações? Será que o registro escrito pode ameaçar os segredos? Como perpetuar segredos sem correr os riscos de deformá-los ou mesmo modificá-los? A escrita protege ou fragiliza esses segredos? Essas perguntas movem essa dissertação e suscita outras ligadas diretamente às questões do aprender de crianças e jovens para além dos muros da escola; será que o ìtàn pode ser considerado como um facilitador da aprendizagem e constituinte de redes educativas neste espaço? Pesquisei esses processos a partir dos registros escritos nos cadernos/diários de crianças e adolescentes e seu repasse dentro de um terreiro de candomblé, onde essas construções escritas fazem parte do cotidiano, sendo desdobramento de uma prática pouco comum, nesta formatação específica, nos espaços de religiosidade afro-descendente. O ìtàn é um dos principais instrumentos para o repasse, compreensão, manutenção das tradições do candomblé, tradições essas que possuem o segredo e a oralidade como mola de propulsão; os registros escritos existem, em um número considerável, como forma de guardar ensinamentos ritualísticos aprendidos com os mais velhos e/ou em terreiros de amigos - como os registros de ìtàn e cadernos/diários que encontramos no espaço do terreiro pesquisado

长江中下游地区浅水湖泊群中无机氮和TN/TP变化的模式及生物调控机制

对长江中下游地区33个浅水性湖泊的氨态氮(NH_3-N)、硝态氮(NO_3-N)、亚硝氮(NO_2-N)和氮磷比(TN/TP)在生长季节和非生长季节的变化进行了研究。各营养盐浓度之间均呈显著正相关,整体上生长季节的相关性较好。当TP＞0．1 mgL~(-1)时,随TP浓度的升高,非生长季节氨态氮浓度增加较快,硝态氮在生长季节呈增长趋势而在非生长季节有下降的趋势,这主要因为非生长季节超富营养湖泊中的溶氧和温度较生长季节低,而硝化作用对溶氧和温度较敏感所致。当TP为0．035 mg·l~(-1)～0．1 mg

TN : TP ratio and planktivorous fish do not affect nutrient-chlorophyll relationships in shallow lakes

1. In previous work, phytoplankton regulation in freshwater lakes has been associated with many factors. Among these, the ratio of total nitrogen to total phosphorus (TN : TP) has been widely proposed as an index to identify whether phytoplankton are N- or P-limited. From another point of view, it has been suggested that planktivorous fish can be used to control phytoplankton. 2. Large-scale investigations of phytoplankton biomass [measured as chlorophyll a, (chl-a)] were carried out in 45 mid-lower Yangtze shallow lakes to test hypotheses concerning nutrient limitation (assessed with TN : TP ratios) and phytoplankton control by planktivorous fish. 3. Regression analyses indicated that TP was the primary regulating factor and TN the second regulating factor for both annual and summer phytoplankton chl-a. In separate nutrient-chl-a regression analyses for lakes of different TN : TP ratios, TP was also superior to TN in predicting chl-a at all particular TN : TP ranges and over the entire TN : TP spectrum. Further analyses found that chl-a : TP was not influenced by TN : TP, while chl-a : TN was positively and highly correlated to TP : TN. 4. Based on these results, and others in the literature, we argue that the TN : TP ratio is inappropriate as an index to identify limiting nutrients. It is almost impossible to specify a 'cut-off' TN : TP ratio to identify a limiting nutrient for a multi-species community because optimal N : P ratios vary greatly among phytoplankton species. 5. Lakes with yields of planktivorous fish (silver and bighead carp, the species native to China) > 100 kg ha(-1) had significantly higher chl-a and lower Secchi depth than those with yields < 100 kg ha(-1). TP-chl-a and TP-Secchi depth relationships are not significantly different between lakes with yields > 100 kg ha(-1) or < 100 kg ha(-1). These results indicate that the fish failed to decrease chl-a yield or enhance Z(SD). Therefore, silver carp and bighead carp are not recommended as a biotic agent for phytoplankton control in lake management if the goal is to control the entire phytoplankton and to enhance water quality.

Changes in the patterns of inorganic nitrogen and TN/TP ratio and the associated mechanism of biological regulation in the shallow lakes of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River

The changes of NH3-N, NO3-N, NO2-N and TN/TP were studied during growth and non-growth season in 33 subtropical shallow lakes in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. There were significant positive correlations among all nutrient concentrations, and the correlations were better in growth season than in non-growth season. When TP > 0.1 mgL(-1), NH3-N increased sharply in non-growth season with increasing TP, and NO3-N increased in growth season but decreased in non-growth season with TP. These might be attributed to lower dissolved oxygen and low temperature in non-growth season of the hypereutrophic lakes, since nitrification is more sensitive to dissolved oxygen and temperature than anti nitrification. When 0.1 mgL(-1)> TP > 0.035 mgL(-1), TN and all kinds of inorganic nitrogen were lower in growth season than in non-growth season, and phytoplankton might be the vital regulating factor. When TP < 0.035 mgL(-1), inorganic nitrogen concentrations were relatively low and NH3-N, NO2-N had significant correlations with phytoplankton, indicating that NH3-N and NO2-N might be limiting factors to phytoplankton. In addition, TN/TP went down with decline in TIP concentration, and TN and inorganic nitrogen concentrations were obviously lower in growth season than in non-growth season, suggesting that decreasing nitrogen (especially NH3-N and NO3-N) was an important reason for the decreasing TN/TP in growth season. The ranges of TN/TP were closely related to trophic level in both growth and non-growth seasons, and it is apparent that in the eutrophic and hypertrophic state the TN/TP ratio was obviously lower in growth season than in non-growth season. The changes of the TN/TP ratio were closely correlated with trophic levels, and both declines of TN in the water column and TP release from the sediment were important factors for the decline of the TN/TP ratio in growth season.

The low TN : TP ratio, a cause or a result of Microcystis blooms?

An enclosure experiment in the shallow, subtropical Lake Donghu, China, was performed in the summer of 2001 to examine the effect of TN:TP (total phosphorus) ratios and P-reduction on the occurrence of Microcysitis blooms. The treatments were performed with enough amounts of N but with different amounts of P in the water column and sediment. Microcystis blooms occurred in the enclosures either with an initial TN:TP <29 or TN:TP >29 where the nutrients (N, P) were high enough. Microcysitis blooms never occurred in the treatments with low P concentration in spite of the presence of sufficient N. The P-rich sediments served as an important source for the P supply in the water column, and such a process was activated greatly by the outburst of Microcystis blooms which pumped up selectively P from the sediments and thus decreased the TN:TP ratios. Therefore, the low TN:TP ratio is not a cause but rather a result of Microcystis blooms. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

LAS对人工快滤系统去除TN的影响

为了研究LAS对人工快滤系统净化污水能力的影响,运用人工土柱模拟的方法,研究了人工快滤系统对污水中TN的去除规律。结果表明:在四种处理(LAS体积浓度≤100 mg/L)条件下,随着土层深度的增加,人工快滤系统对TN的去除率增加。在同一土层中,人工快滤系统对TN的去除率表现为先增加,后减小;人工快滤系统对TN的去除率大小的规律为处理Ⅱ>处理Ⅲ>处理Ⅰ>处理Ⅳ。在延长干化时间条件下,人工快滤系统对TN的去除率增加。LAS对人工快滤系统去除TN有着显著的影响,但LAS对人工快滤系统去除TN的影响机理需要进一步深入研究。
