Sport fishing is an important leisure activity in many countries. It directly and indirectly generates income and jobs for millions of people. In some places, its landing outstrips production from professional fishing but this fact is not always taken into account in the establishment of management actions. In the area of Cachoeira (Waterfall) de Emas there are reports of intense fishing since ...

Various disaster mitigation efforts due to volcanic earthquakes and eruptions are carried out reduce the risk of casualties damage infrastructure. One such effort is conduct deformation studies. The results this study include estimating position hypocenter, pressure source, magma supply volume, so that volume material released during eruption can be estimated. With Mogi Model approach analysis ...

Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) has provided a new imaging geodesy technique to measure the deformation of volcanoes at tens-of-meter horizontal resolution with centimeter to subcentimeter vertical precision. The two-dimensional surface deformation data enables the construction of detailed numerical models allowing the study of magmatic and tectonic processes beneath volcanoes....

ABSTRACT Riparian forests suffered from forest fragmentation, which in turn promote the change pattern of seed dispersion and modification soil bank. The aim this study is to indicate main species that make up bank a stretch riparian Mogi Guaçu River continued fragment semidecidual forest, located Air Force Base Pirassununga. It was delimited ten plots 10 x m. Four samples collected by plot wit...

Strength of rocks in the confined tension region, where minimum principal stress is tensile, has only infrequently been measured and not well understood. Quasi-static Brazilian tests under a range confining stresses (2.76 to 27.58 MPa) used determine strength sandstone region. The test results indicate that region was strong function intermediate stress: increasing significantly increased sands...
