1. Characterization, Source Apportionment and Health Risk Assessment of PM2.5 for a Rural Classroom in the Amazon: A Case Study
Classrooms are microenvironments in which children and teenagers may be exposed to fine particulate matter (PM2.5). Iranduba is a rural city in the Amazon region close to many brick kilns and road with high traffic levels. In this study, indoor and outdoor PM2.5 levels were measured in a classroom in Iranduba, and the PM2.5 exposure effects on student’s he

2. Stabilization of sandy soil with high content of asphalt emulsion
Abstract The purpose of this article is to evaluate the shear strength parameters of mixtures of sandy soil with high asphalt emulsion contents for their use in geotechnical structures, such as zoned earth dams, embankments, etc. The methodology adopted consisted of: collecting and characterizing samples of sandy soil to be laboratory tested; compacting the

3. Antimicrobial activity of actinomycetes and characterization of actinomycin-producing strain KRG-1 isolated from Karoo, South Africa
In the present study we reported the antimicrobial activity of actinomycetes isolated from aridic soil sample collected in Karoo, South Africa. Eighty-six actinomycete strains were isolated and purified, out of them thirty-four morphologically different strains were tested for antimicrobial activity. Among 35 isolates, 10 (28.57%) showed both antibacterial a

4. Influence of Carnauba Wax on Films of Poly (Butylene Adipate Co-Terephthalate) and Sugarcane Residue for Application in Soil Cover (Mulching)
The population increase, urbanization and climatic change adversely affect the agricultural production have prompted actions to improve the means of production without affecting the environment. One of the actions to make the production of food more efficient and sustainable is the use of plastics in protection of crops, soils and packaging, for example. The

5. O uso de sistemas agroflorestais diversificados na restauração florestal na Mata Atlântica
Resumo Com a nova legislação ambiental brasileira vislumbra-se a possibilidade do uso de sistemas agroflorestais diversificados para recompor áreas de preservação permanente e reserva legal, principalmente em pequenas propriedades rurais. Uma pergunta que surge, diz respeito à capacidade desses sistemas em reduzir custos na restauração florestal e, a

6. REDUCTION OF SAMPLE SIZE IN THE ANALYSIS OF SPATIAL VARIABILITY OF NONSTATIONARY SOIL CHEMICAL ATTRIBUTES
ABSTRACT In the study of spatial variability of soil attributes, it is essential to define a sampling plan with adequate sample size. This study aimed to evaluate, through simulated data, the influence of parameters of the geostatistical model and sampling configuration on the optimization process, and resize and reduce the sample size of a sampling configur

7. Validation of a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for Forensic Soils Investigation in Brazil
ABSTRACT Soil traces are useful as forensic evidence due to their potential to transfer and adhere to different types of surfaces on a range of objects or persons. Several works have been developed in forensic soils, under different analytical approaches. However, in Brazil, only the researches from the Group of the Federal University of Paraná have develop

8. Analytical determination of the vibration frequencies and buckling loads of slender reinforced concrete towers
Abstract This study focused on improving the design of slender structures with reinforced concrete (RC) telecommunication towers as the main application. Analytical procedure based on Rayleigh’s method to compute the first natural vibration frequency and the critical buckling load was development. All the nonlinearities present in the system were considere

9. Water retention curve to analyze soil structure changes due to liming
Abstract: Liming can influence crop growth by altering pore geometry, pore size distribution and water retention characteristics in acid soils. The aim of this work is to determine liming effects on the soil structure based on analysis of water retention data using a cubic spline adjustment function. For that, the authors investigated the effect of three lim

10. Potential Slow Release Fertilizers and Acid Soil Conditioners Obtained by One-Pot Mechanochemical Activation of Chrysotile:Cement Roofing Sheets with K2HPO4
Chrysotile:cement roofing sheets were milled with and without K2HPO4. As indicated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), the samples crystallinities were reduced with the increasing milling time. The same tendency was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), with disaggregation of the chrysotile fiber bundles and forma

11. Evaluation of common bean genotypes for drought tolerance
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to evaluate twelve genotypes of common bean for intermittent drought stress and for root growth angle. The water deficit experiments were conducted in 2015 and 2016in a randomized block experimental design with split plots and three replications. Two treatments were applied: an irrigated treatment and a water deficit treatm

12. Digital Soil Mapping Using Machine Learning Algorithms in a Tropical Mountainous Area
ABSTRACT: Increasingly, applications of machine learning techniques for digital soil mapping (DSM) are being used for different soil mapping purposes. Considering the variety of models available, it is important to know their performance in relation to soil data and environmental variables involved in soil mapping. This paper investigated the performance of
