1. Evaluation of sediment contamination by urban sewage in a stretch of Capibaribe River, Pernambuco, Brazil
Anthropic activities are responsible for the increase in environmental contamination, especially in aquatic systems, demanding studies to assess and monitor contamination levels in different water bodies. We have done a chemical characterization of eleven sediments in order to evaluate the level of contamination by domestic sewage from the Capibaribe River,

2. CHARACTERIZATION OF GEOSPATIAL, MORPHOMETRIC, AND ENVIRONMENTAL DYNAMICS OF THE MARIANA MICROBASIN IN ALTA FLORESTA-MT, BRAZIL
ABSTRACT River basin environmental diagnosis and monitoring are fundamental for water resource use and conservation plans, as these systems integrate different landscape elements and may undergo impacts and changes of different levels and scales. In this context, this work aimed to characterize the geospatial, morphometric, and environmental dynamics in the

3. o-DGT Devices for the Determination of Emerging Contaminants in Aqueous Matrices
Samplers based on the diffusive gradients in thin films for organics (o-DGT) were developed and applied in Brazilian aqueous matrices for the determination of four emerging contaminants (EC): 4-octylphenol, 4-nonylphenol, triclosan, and bisphenol A. The OASIS HLB resin used as the binding phase presented a high sorption capacity and the extraction associated

4. Metals and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) of surface waters in two adjacent watersheds in the eastern Amazon
Resumo A intensificação do uso da terra na região da “Zona Bragantina”, uma área da Amazônia Oriental brasileira, acelerou as mudanças de paisagem da floresta primária para uma mistura de diferentes usos da terra: floresta (vegetação ripária), floresta secundária, pastagem, terra agrícola anual, terra cultivada perene, solo descoberto e veget

5. Biomonitoring of Heavy Metals (Fe, Zn, Cu, Mn, Cd and Cr) in Oysters: Crassostrea rhizophorae of Mangrove Areas of Alagoas (Brazil)
Abstract Mangroves are tropical and subtropical flooded forests that generally develop in estuarine areas over unstable sediments protected from the action of waves in the intertidal zone with an environment characterized by a great diversity of fauna and flora. Thus, the present study aimed to evaluate the levels of heavy metals that are absorbed by mangrov

6. Methodology for minimum nitrogen compounds removal efficiencies estimation and wastewater treatment systems pre-selection: a watershed approach
RESUMO O nitrogênio constitui importante parâmetro para o controle da poluição hídrica, uma vez que a nitrificação produz consumo de oxigênio do ambiente aquático, além da toxicidade associada à algumas formas de nitrogênio. Este estudo estabeleceu e empregou modelo de otimização visando a determinação simultânea de eficiências mínimas de

7. FOUR DECADES OF HYDROLOGICAL PROCESS SIMULATION OF THE ITACAIÚNAS RIVER WATERSHED, SOUTHEAST AMAZON
Abstract The impacts of anthropogenic degradation are becoming increasingly more evident in the Amazon and are jeopardizing its environmental systems and water resources, particularly in low monitored watersheds. Thus, the use of hydrological models is necessary to gain an understanding of these impacts on Amazonian river systems. The aim of this study was t

8. Distribution and habitat preference of Ephemeroptera and Trichoptera in subtropical mountain streams: implications for monitoring and conservation
Abstract: The assessment of biotic-habitat relationships provides key information to predict biotic responses to perturbations and important tools for river management and monitoring. This study aimed to assess the spatial distribution of Ephemeroptera and Trichoptera in mountain streams of central Argentina. We evaluated the effect of seasonality and identi

9. Distribution of major and trace elements in bottom sediments of the Taquari River Basin, Caldas municipality (Brazil)
Resumo A Bacia do Rio Taquari, localizada no Complexo Alcalino de Poços de Caldas, na porção sul de Minas Gerais, está situada em uma antiga caldeira vulcânica. Devido às suas características químicas e radiológicas, é uma área de interesse econômico e mineral, além de abrigar diversos sistemas de flora e fauna. Nos seus arredores existem áreas

10. Factors driving seed dispersal in a Neotropical river-floodplain system
ABSTRACT Dispersal is a key process affecting the diversity of natural communities. We addressed hydrochory of wetland plant seeds in the Middle Paraná River floodplain. We first studied seed dispersal by drifting macrophytes in the Paraná River main channel (MC), in a high discharge secondary channel (HD) and in two low discharge channels (LD) during an e

11. A new species of whiptail armored catfish, genus Pseudohemiodon (Siluriformes: Loricariidae) from the Orinoco River basin, Llanos region of Colombia and Venezuela
ABSTRACT A new species of whiptail armored catfish belonging to the genus Pseudohemiodon is described. The new species inhabits aquatic systems of the Orinoco River basin, mostly in the Llanos region of Colombia and Venezuela. Previously, it had identified as P. laticeps erroneously. The genus Pseudohemiodon includes seven known species inhabit Amazon and Pa

12. Os “Hidronegócios” nos rios da Amazônia
RESUMO O artigo discute a história dos rios amazônicos como lugares de “hidronegócios”, analisando as fontes e a produção historiográfica sobre os registros de usos e representações das águas, bem como os processos de apropriação dos rios no contexto do planejamento do desenvolvimento regional entre 1950 e 1985, norteado pelas ideias de progre
