As áreas onde, segundo notificação, ocorreram casos de leishmaniose tegumentar americana, na região de Lagoinha, Estado de São Paulo, Brasil (Lat 23 05 S; Lon 45 11), nos anos de 1993 e 1994, foram localizadas numa imagem do satélite TM-LANDSAT. A composição colorida artificial feita com as bandas 3, 4 e 5 da imagem permitiu a identificação de vegetação arbustiva, ou dentro mesmo dos limites indicados para aquelas localidades ou à distância máxima de cerca de 250 metros do perímetro de cada área. A utilização de um recurso capaz de possibilitar uma visão mais abrangente de uma área geográfica tornou evidente as vantagens do sensoriamento remoto orbital para o estudo desta endemia.

A presença de algumas substâncias na água, como pigmentos fotossintetizantes, particulados, etc., afeta sua cor, provocando mudanças na radiância da água registrada por sensores orbitais. Nesse sentido, o sensoriamento remoto pode se constituir em uma fonte complementar de dados para o monitoramento da qualidade da água em grandes reservatórios (Novo et al., 1994). No contexto de um projeto de pesquisa realizado na AES Tietê S.A., com o objetivo de desenvolver técnicas para a avaliação da área com infestação de plantas aquáticas, imagens orbitais multiespectrais foram usadas tanto para mapear a dispersão espacial e estimar a área de ocorrência de macrófitas aquáticas, em duas épocas distintas, quanto para orientar a definição de pontos de amostragem in loco, visando a coleta e posterior análise da água e de sedimentos nos reservatórios. Este trabalho apresenta uma descrição do procedimento metodológico adotado na análise das imagens multiespectrais, bem como os resultados obtidos na caracterização dos reservatórios de Barra Bonita, Bariri, Ibitinga, Promissão e Nova Avanhandava, em termos de seu dimensionamento, variabilidade espectral da água e presença de macrófitas emersas, nas duas épocas do ano consideradas.

Os produtos de sensoriamento remoto gerados pelos novos sensores orbitais, aliados ao desenvolvimento de sistemas computacionais e de técnicas de processamento de imagens possibilitam a manipulação numérica das imagens, visando o realce de informações de interesse para a interpretação visual ou automática. O uso dessas técnicas traz boas perspectivas no mapeamento geológico básico, pois possibilita uma visão sinóptica de amplas áreas e a integração de dados litológicos e estruturais de várias fontes. Este trabalho selecionou as imagens do sensor ASTER (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer) devido as características de suas resoluções espectral e espacial, como as mais promissoras para identificação dos diferentes litotipos da área do Platô da Ramada, em especial as unidades vulcânicas e hipabissais relacionadas e sedimentares subjacentes. O Platô da Ramada, região de Vila Nova do Sul (RS) constitui uma feição geomorfológica de destaque na área, facilmente identificável nas imagens orbitais, sendo formado por uma seqüência vulcânica caracterizada por depósitos efusivos e piroclásticos, de composição dominantemente ácida. Representa uma fração significativa do magmatismo alcalino sódico neoproterozóico no Escudo Sul-rio-grandense e marca um dos ciclos vulcânicos do período pós-colisional do Ciclo Brasiliano Este estudo testou e avaliou diversos processamentos das imagens multiespectrais para diferenciação litológica, a identificação de alvos e a definição de morfoestruturas da área do Platô da Ramada. A integração de dados geológicos existentes com os produtos obtidos neste estudo possibilitou novas informações anexadas ao mapa geológico utilizado como verdade terrestre. O processamento utilizando a técnica de Transformação por Componentes Principais Seletivas proporcionou os melhores resultados realçando diferenças espectrais existentes entre as rochas vulcânicas e hipabissais e as rochas sedimentares. A partir dessa técnica, selecionou-se as imagens CP2 dos pares das bandas 4-5 (R), 3-4 (G) e 8-9 (B) na geração de uma composição colorida. Esta imagem permitiu a diferenciação espectral entre as rochas vulcânicas do Platô da Ramada e as rochas sedimentares do Grupo Maricá, bem como a individualização, no Grupo Maricá, de duas subunidades, levando-se em conta a densidade de intrusões de diques riolíticos ao norte da área. Identificou-se, ainda, um corpo diorítico com forma elíptica na borda SW do Platô da Ramada, não registrado anteriormente.

O objetivo deste trabalho foi desenvolver e avaliar um método para estimar a área plantada de soja em escala regional e calcular o erro estatístico associado à estimação. O método (Geosafras), que associa técnicas de amostragem estatística com características das imagens obtidas por sensoriamento remoto orbital, foi aplicado para obter estimativa amostral objetiva da área cultivada com soja, na safra de 2005/2006, no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul. Os municípios produtores de soja, no RS, foram distribuídos em dez estratos, com base em dados pré‑existentes de área cultivada com a cultura. O número de municípios selecionados, em cada estrato, seguiu a regra de alocação de Neyman. Em cada município selecionado, foram aleatorizados pontos correspondentes aos pixels das imagens, classificados como "soja" ou "não soja" após visita a campo. A partir dos dados de 3.000 pontos distribuídos nos 30 municípios selecionados, nos dez estratos, foi estimada a área cultivada com soja no RS, que totalizou 4.069.887 ha, com coeficiente de variação (CV) de 3,4%. Esta estimativa foi consistente com os dados oficiais. O método amostral objetivo estratificado, auxiliado por sensoriamento remoto, permite estimar a área cultivada com soja no Rio Grande do Sul e é capaz de quantificar o erro associado à estimativa realizada.

The Curimataú estuary is located in the oriental coast of Rio Grande do Norte State in Brazil. Its importance resides in the fact that this region possesses one of the last portions of preserved mangrove in the Rio Grande do Norte State. Nevertheless, it has been severely affected by many anthropogenic activities, as sugarcane monoculture and shrimp farming. Former works demonstrated that an accumulation of heavy metals is occurring in oysters in this estuary, and perhaps it could be explained by the input of metals in this ecosystem deriving from the shrimp farming. To better understanding the origin of these metals, bottom sediment samples, cores and suspended particulate matter were collected for a characterization of metal concentrations (Al, Ba, Cd, Cu, Cr, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, Zn) and to determine the potentially bioavailable metals. Additionally, the enrichment ratio for each element analyzed was calculated. The mineralogical composition of sediment samples and cores were obtained by X-ray diffraction. Moreover, data of orbital remote sensing were used in order to detect and quantify suspended matter by applying a logarithmic algorithm. Geochemical data of bottom sediments and cores revealed that, excepting Ba and Pb, the elements analyzed presented concentrations characteristic of an unpolluted ecosystem (Al: 0,25 - 8,76 %; Ba: 3,03 - 870 µg.g-1; Cd: < 0,25 µg.g-1; Cr: 1,72 - 82,4 µg.g-1; Cu: 0,12 -25,3 µg.g-1; Pb: 0,38 - 23,7 µg.g-1; Fe: 0,10 - 5,82 %; Mn: 15,1 - 815 µg.g-1; Ni: 0,14 - 36,1 µg.g-1; Zn: 1,37 - 113 µg.g-1). During the dry season a distribution pattern was observed, with higher metal concentrations in the margins, decreasing toward the central portion of the channel. These metal concentrations were well correlated with mineralogical compositions, with clay minerals prevailing at the margins, and quartz and feldspar in the center. However, this pattern was not observed during the wet season, probably because of the high water flux that disturbed bottom sediments. But, as observed for the dry season, a good correlation between metal concentrations and mineralogical composition was also observed for the wet season, with high metal concentrations where there were high quantities of clay minerals. Low enrichment ratios were obtained for the majority of elements analyzed, excepting for Mn, Ba and Pb. Manganese presented the higher ratios downstream for both seasons, and it can be an evidence of anthropogenic impact by shrimp farming. As barium and lead concentrations in sediment samples presented analytical problems during the total sample digestion, one cannot be sure that the ratios obtained correspond to the reality. The highest metal concentrations in particulate matter were obtained in the portion dominated by fluvial transport for all metals analyzed, excepting for copper. Barium and zinc were the only elements that presented elevated concentrations that are not common of unpolluted ecosystems (Ba: 5730 - 8355 µg.g-1; Zn: 3899 - 4348 µg.g-1). However, these high concentrations could not be related to the shrimp farming and waste waters from the town of Canguaretama, once they were obtained from the fluvial particulate matter, that is upstream from the activities above mentioned. The application of the logarithmic algorithm to the processed LANDSAT image was well succeeded, although the acquired image does not correspond exactly to the field campaigns. The IKONOS image provided very detailed views of the suspended sediment concentration at the estuary, as the mixture of distinct water flows at the confluence of Cunhaú and Curimataú rivers, with more turbid waters from Cunhaú river, that is directly affected by effluents from shrimp farming and urban waste waters deriving from the town of Canguaretama

Os processamentos de imagens orbitais efetuados através de técnicas de sensoriamento remoto geraram informações qualitativas de natureza textural (morfo-estruturas). Estas permitiram (1) o reconhecimento de áreas com diferentes padrões estruturais tendo diferentes potencialidades para a prospecção de fluorita, (2) a identificação de novos lineamentos estruturais potencialmente favoráveis à mineralização e (3) evidenciaram prolongamentos extensos para as principais estruturas mineralizadas, (4) às quais se associam um grande número de estruturas, antes desconhecidas, com grande potencial prospectivo. O aprimoramento de técnicas de classificação digital sobre produtos de razões de bandas e análise por componentes principais permitiu identificar a alteração hidrotermal associada às estruturas, incorporando novos critérios para a prospecção de fluorita. Buscando-se quantificar os dados de alteração hidrotermal, foi efetuada a análise espectrorradiométrica das rochas do distrito fluorítico. Integrando estas informações com dados TM LANDSAT 5, em nível de reflectância, obteve-se a classificação espectral das imagens orbitais, o que permitiu a identificação de estruturas menores com um detalhe nunca antes obtido. Os processamentos de dados aerogeofísicos forneceram resultados sobre estruturas (magnetometria) e corpos graníticos afetados por alteração hidrotermal (aerogamaespectrometria). Estes produtos foram integrados com dados TM LANDSAT 5 associando o atributo textural da imagem orbital ao comportamento radiométrico das rochas. Diagnosticou-se o lineamento Grão-Pará como o principal prospecto do distrito. E levantaram-se uma série de dados sobre a compartimentação tectônica da região, a zonação de fácies das rochas graníticas (rocha fonte do flúor) e as alterações hidrotermais associadas ao magmatismo granítico. Isto permitiu a compreensão da distribuição regional dos depósitos de fluorita, adicionando-se um novo critério à prospecção de fluorita, a relação espacial entre a mineralização e a rocha fonte de F. Esta última corresponde à fácies granítica da borda do Maciço Pedras Grandes.

With the need to deploy management and monitoring systems of natural resources in areas susceptible to environmental degradation, as is the case of semiarid regions, several works have been developed in order to find effective models and technically and economically viable. Therefore, this study aimed to estimate the daily actual evapotranspiration (ETr) through the application of the Surface Energy Balance Algorithm for Land (SEBAL), from remote sensing products, in a semiarid region, Seridó of the Rio Grande do Norte, and do the validation of these estimates using ETr values obtained by the Penman-Monteith (standard method of the Food and Agriculture Organization-FAO). The SEBAL is based on energy balance method, which allows obtaining the vertical latent heat flux (LE) with orbital images and, consequently, of the evapotranspiration through the difference of flows, also vertical, of heat in the soil (G), sensitive heat (H) and radiation balance (Rn). The study area includes the surrounding areas of the Dourado reservoir, located in the Currais Novos/RN city. For the implementation of the algorithm were used five images TM/Landsat-5. The work was divided in three chapters in order to facilitate a better discussion of each part of the SEBAL processing, distributed as follows: first chapter addressing the spatio-temporal variability of the biophysical variables; second chapter dealing with spatio-temporal distribution of instant and daily radiation balance; and the third chapter discussing the heart of the work, the daily actual evapotranspiration estimation and the validation than to the study area

Hydrogeological prospecting in Northeast Brazil and in other crystalline terrains has been developed on the basis of structural and regional geology concepts that date back to the 50-60 decades and, as such, demand a natural re-evaluation and update. In this kind of terrain, the percolation and accumulation of ground water are controlled by fractures and other types of discontinuities, such as foliations and geological contacts that, through weathering, impart porosity and permeability to the rocks, allowing water flow and storage. Several factors should be considered in the process of locating water wells, as discussed in the literature. Among these, the kind of structures, fracture geometry (including aperture and connectivity) and their geological and chronological context. It is important to correlate fracture systems with the regional neotectonic framework. Fractures at low angle (sub parallel) with the principal stress axis (s1) are those which tend to open (actually they work as tension joints) and, in principle, would present major hydric potential; in the opposite side, fractures at high angle to s1 would behave as closed by a compressional component. Fractures diagonal to the compression and tension axes correspond to shear fractures and, due to their connectivity with second fractures, are also important in terms of hydric potential. Uplift followed by terrain denudation leads to decompression and a general tendency to open (aided by weathering processes) fractures and other rock discontinuities, at different orientations. Low angle fractures, formed in this context, are equally important to increase connectivity, collection of water and recharge of the aquifer systems. In a general way, an opening component (neotectonic or by terrain decompression) and several models to increase fracture connectivity correlate with a greater hydric potential of these structures. Together with parallel research, this thesis addresses models of ground water occurrence in crystalline terrains, either improving well established concepts like the (Riacho-Fenda model), but also stressing other possibilities, like the role of alluvium and paleo-regoliths (the Calha Elúvio-Aluvionar model) and of strongly altered, permo-porous zones placed at variable depths below the present surface, flanking several types of discontinuities, especially interconnected fracture arrays (the Bolsões de Intemperismo model). Different methodological approaches are also discussed in order to improve success rates in the location of water wells in crystalline terrains. In this methodological review, a number of case studies were selected in the eastern domain of the State of Rio Grande do Norte, involving the localities of Santa Cruz, Santo Antônio, Serrinha, Nova Cruz, Montanhas, Lagoa de Pedras and Lagoa Salgada. Besides the neotectonic analysis of brittle structures, this Thesis addresses the validation of remote sensing as a tool for ground water prospecting. Several techniques were tested in order to detect and select areas with higher potential for ground water accumulation, using Landsat 5-TM and RADARSAT images, besides conventional aerial photos. A number of filters were tested to emphasize lineaments in the images, improving their discrimination, to identify areas with higher overburden humidity, which could reflect subsurface water accumulation, as well as alluvium and other sedimentary covers that might act as recharge zones. The work started with a regional analysis with the orbital images, followed by analysis of aerial photos, up to a detailed structural study of rock exposures in the terrain. This last step involved the analysis of outcrops surrounding wells (in a ray of approximately 10 to 100 m) with distinct productivities, including dry examples. At the level required for detail, it was not possible to accomplish a statistical approach using the available well data catalogs, which lack the desired specific information. The methodology worked out in this Thesis must undergo a testing phase through location of new water wells. An increase in the success rates as desired will led to a further consolidation step with wider divulgation of the methodology to private companies and governmental agencies involved in ground water prospecting in crystalline terrains

Remote sensing is one technology of extreme importance, allowing capture of data from the Earth's surface that are used with various purposes, including, environmental monitoring, tracking usage of natural resources, geological prospecting and monitoring of disasters. One of the main applications of remote sensing is the generation of thematic maps and subsequent survey of areas from images generated by orbital or sub-orbital sensors. Pattern classification methods are used in the implementation of computational routines to automate this activity. Artificial neural networks present themselves as viable alternatives to traditional statistical classifiers, mainly for applications whose data show high dimensionality as those from hyperspectral sensors. This work main goal is to develop a classiffier based on neural networks radial basis function and Growing Neural Gas, which presents some advantages over using individual neural networks. The main idea is to use Growing Neural Gas's incremental characteristics to determine the radial basis function network's quantity and choice of centers in order to obtain a highly effective classiffier. To demonstrate the performance of the classiffier three studies case are presented along with the results.

Objective to establish a methodology for the oil spill monitoring on the sea surface, located at the Submerged Exploration Area of the Polo Region of Guamaré, in the State of Rio Grande do Norte, using orbital images of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR integrated with meteoceanographycs products. This methodology was applied in the following stages: (1) the creation of a base map of the Exploration Area; (2) the processing of NOAA/AVHRR and ERS-2 images for generation of meteoceanographycs products; (3) the processing of RADARSAT-1 images for monitoring of oil spills; (4) the integration of RADARSAT-1 images with NOAA/AVHRR and ERS-2 image products; and (5) the structuring of a data base. The Integration of RADARSAT-1 image of the Potiguar Basin of day 21.05.99 with the base map of the Exploration Area of the Polo Region of Guamaré for the identification of the probable sources of the oil spots, was used successfully in the detention of the probable spot of oil detected next to the exit to the submarine emissary in the Exploration Area of the Polo Region of Guamaré. To support the integration of RADARSAT-1 images with NOAA/AVHRR and ERS-2 image products, a methodology was developed for the classification of oil spills identified by RADARSAT-1 images. For this, the following algorithms of classification not supervised were tested: K-means, Fuzzy k-means and Isodata. These algorithms are part of the PCI Geomatics software, which was used for the filtering of RADARSAT-1 images. For validation of the results, the oil spills submitted to the unsupervised classification were compared to the results of the Semivariogram Textural Classifier (STC). The mentioned classifier was developed especially for oil spill classification purposes and requires PCI software for the whole processing of RADARSAT-1 images. After all, the results of the classifications were analyzed through Visual Analysis; Calculation of Proportionality of Largeness and Analysis Statistics. Amongst the three algorithms of classifications tested, it was noted that there were no significant alterations in relation to the spills classified with the STC, in all of the analyses taken into consideration. Therefore, considering all the procedures, it has been shown that the described methodology can be successfully applied using the unsupervised classifiers tested, resulting in a decrease of time in the identification and classification processing of oil spills, if compared with the utilization of the STC classifier
