Estações pluviométricas da bacia hidrográfica do rio Araguaia: qualificação e modelagem de dados hidrológicos
(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2026-04-29) Schetine, Igor Boson; Bayer, Maximiliano; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4552593148328465; Bayer, Maximiliano; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4552593148328465; Zancopé, Márcio Henrique de Campos; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4592570099084884; Luiz, Gislaine Cristina; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4310433384519387
The Araguaia River basin, situated in a strategic transition zone between the Cerrado and the Amazon, plays a vital regulatory role in the environmental and economic stability of Central Brazil. However, the system faces unprecedented pressures due to the rapid expansion of the agricultural frontier, which has massively converted native vegetation into intensive land-use areas. This research aimed to qualify the historical data network and model the basin’s rainfall dynamics between 1975 and 2023, identifying long-term trends integrated with relief and land-use characteristics. The methodology was based on computational processing using the R language to execute automated algorithmic data cleaning routines, which allowed for the reduction of the initial inventory of 209 rain gauges to only 91 statistically suitable units, revealing a “data economy” that imposes critical monitoring gaps. Temporal analysis applied the Rainfall Anomaly Index and non-parametric tests, such as Mann-Kendall and Sen’s Slope Estimator, cross-referencing the results with digital elevation models and MapBiomas historical series. The results demonstrate a structural drying process in the basin with a rainfall reduction rate of -25.49 mm/year, with the year 2007 marking the definitive inflection point for an uninterrupted block of years classified as “Very Drey”. Spatially, a severe polarization was observed: headwaters and recharge zones in the Southern sector suffer from pronounced “top-drying” with the sharpest declines occurring on plateaus above 500 meters in altitude. The replacement of the Cerrado with pastures deactivated the “biotic pump” and removed the natural “hydraulic brake”, favoring violent surface runoff at the expense of deep infiltration. It is concluded that the recharge failure of the southern headwaters directly threatens the flood pulse of Bananal Island, evidencing the “death of stationarity” in regional water management. The current planning model creates an imminent risk of issuing “paper water entitlements”, necessitating an urgent transition to adaptive governance models and the rigorous protection of recharge areas on the plateaus.
Modelagem de curvas IDF em condições de escassez de dados sub-horários em Goiás: impactos da escolha do procedimento de estimação e da distribuição
(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2026-05-18) Silva, Matheus de Paiva; Formiga, Klebber Teodomiro Martins; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0787413754235970; Formiga, Klebber Teodomiro Martins; Basso, Raviel Eurico; Almeida, Cristiano das Neves
This study conducts a comparative evaluation between two procedures for constructing Intensity–Duration–Frequency (IDF) curves from sub-daily rainfall series with high temporal resolution, obtained from the CEMADEN network in the state of Goiás. The Single-Step Procedure (SSP), based on joint global calibration, and the Standard Procedure (SP), calibrated individually by duration, are analyzed for statistical performance and suitability for engineering applications. The series used are relatively short (approximately 9 years). The evaluation considers classical statistical goodness-of-fit and error metrics, as well as comparisons with existing curves commonly used in local practice, in order to reduce the bias associated with the short length of the samples. The results indicate that the SSP tends to exhibit greater internal consistency with calibration data and greater functional consistency across time periods, while the SP may produce estimates more consistent with regional patterns in certain situations. On average, both procedures show similar performance when compared to existing curves, demonstrating that local statistical superiority does not necessarily imply greater suitability for design purposes. It is concluded that the use of modern high-resolution time series is promising for urban hydrological applications; however, it must be accompanied by an assessment of regional consistency, a critical analysis of extrapolations, and, whenever possible, a combination of methodological approaches, in order to ensure greater physical robustness and reliability of extreme precipitation estimates.

Karst landscapes are traditionally associated with dissolution processes in carbonate rocks. However, similar processes may also occur in siliciclastic lithologies, such as sandstones and quartzites, constituting what is referred to as non-traditional karst. This study analyzes the geopatrimony developed under sandstone lithology in the municipality of Paraúna, Goiás, Brazil, focusing on the Serra das Galés, located within the Paraúna State Park (PEPa), and the Ponte de Pedra Private Natural Heritage Reserve. The methodology includes a literature review; morphostructural analyses using geoprocessing techniques; fieldwork with drone-based photogrammetric surveys; collection of samples for mineralogical and geochemical analyses; application of scientific value assessment forms for geosites; and the proposal of a methodology for the direct evaluation of scientific value in geopatrimonies. The results indicate that the analyzed geopatrimonies exhibit distinct morphogenetic processes. Serra das Galés represents a typical case of non-traditional karst, in which karst towers developed through arenization processes, whereas Ponte de Pedra displays a complex genesis associated with the combined action of carbonate and non-carbonate lithologies. This complexity challenges the binary distinction between traditional and non-traditional karst. The application of scientific value assessment forms revealed methodological limitations in the adequate interpretation of exceptionally rare karst systems, leading to the proposal of a more compatible methodological approach. It is concluded that the Ponte de Pedra geopatrimony constitutes a unique example of high scientific relevance, whose understanding requires integrated approaches that articulate morphogenesis, conceptual revision, and critical evaluation of valuation methodologies, thereby contributing to the improvement of geoconservation practices in the national context. Keywords: Non-traditional karst; Morphogenesis; Geosite; Assessment forms.

Monitoring Conservation Units in the Cerrado Brazilian biome involves challenges related to effective monitoring and verification of the conservation status of each area in situ. This work becomes more efficient with a comprehensive approach that combines remote sensing techniques, serving as a complement to machine learning and online processing resources. Therefore, the objective of this study was to build an automated high-spatial-resolution classification, and textual and visual description methodology for restoration areas in the Cerrado. Georeferenced data from restoration areas were used for land use classifications based on three auxiliary products with a 4 m resolution, and then the sampling points were delimited using the geohash method. Decision-making at the time of classification was carried out by the Random Forest machine learning algorithm. A total of 8,161 polygons of restoration areas were identified in 11 federative units, with the states that stood out most in terms of the amount of restored area being São Paulo (7,705 ha) and Piauí (3,714 ha). The classification of the areas, with 80% accuracy, covered 19 land use classes, ranging from forest cover, agriculture and pasture. With the program developed for generating automated reports, it was possible to synthesize the descriptive information of the restoration areas in text and image format, in addition to a final land use classification map
Monitoramento ambiental da radioatividade em águas de abastecimento público de Goiás
(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2024-01-31) Nogueira, Regina Apolinária; Scalize, Paulo Sérgio; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0957896448117207; Scalize, Paulo Sérgio; Silva, Daniela de Melo e; Silva, Cláudio Carlos da
The presence of natural radionuclides in water intended for human consumption is a common phenomenon that requires monitoring and prevention. Prolonged and continuous ingestion of water containing low doses of radiation can constitute a danger to public health. One of the long-term effects of exposure, even to low doses of radiation, is the occurrence of oncological diseases in the population. The current Brazilian legislative context, through Ministry of Health Ordinance GM/MS No. 888/2021, establishes water potability requirements for the protection of public health, with regard to radioactive substances present in water for human consumption, establishing parametric values and applicable methods for their control. Three articles derived from specific research on the subject were developed in this work. The first article is a systematic review of the literature on radioactivity in water intended for human consumption and its monitoring. The second article characterizes the natural radioactivity of public water supplies in municipalities in the state of Goiás, between 2011 and 2017, where it was found that the water used for human consumption showed results that met the screening levels for radiological potability set by current standards, in most locations. These safety limits were exceeded in the water from the catchments of three municipalities in terms of gross alpha activity and in four municipalities for gross beta activity, for which it is requested that the radiometric monitoring actions be extended until they are adequate. The third article presents the monitoring of natural radioactivity in water intended for public supply from underground abstractions in the municipality of Goiás-GO. Some wells showed a total alpha content above the recommended level, confirmed by the presence of uranium (U-238). For the regions whose springs showed values above those recommended by Brazilian regulations, it was not necessary to interrupt the water supply, but strategies were suggested for environmental monitoring of the radionuclides present in natural resources.
Narrativas de vida de impactados pela construção da usina hidrelétrica de serra da mesa

The present research aims to present, based on the life stories of those impacted by the construction of the Serra da Mesa dam in Minaçu, how it directly and indirectly affected their lives, the nature and material relations at the site. The construction of hydroelectric dams has the consequence of several socio-environmental impacts, such as, for example, the deterritorialization of social subjects residing in the area, deforestation for the construction of transmission lines and the dam itself, water contamination due to the accumulation of sediments, among other impacts of a quantitative and qualitative nature. The Serra da Mesa hydroelectric plant is located in the Alto Tocantins Basin, in Goiás, covering parts of eight municipalities, Minaçu being one of them. As a methodology in this study, we adopted Bertaux's Life Narratives, which seeks in the procedures of ethnology to study lived experiences based on the fabric of socio-structural relationships of a given object of study. Based on this procedure, thirteen semi-structured interviews were carried out. Ten, of the thirteen interviewees, pointed out in their reports the loss of their homes, land ownership and work (mining and/or rural production), did not have the material conditions to recover from such an impact and claimed that they did not receive fair compensation. from the company responsible for building the dam (Furnas), that there was no resettlement policy and that the promised aid - such as mobility - was not fulfilled. The intensity with which the impacts of the dam construction were felt by these subjects depended on their social class. Of these ten interviewees, there are those who belong to the dispossessed class – those who only have their labor force – and those who had subsistence farms (squatters and small producers) that they lost when the lake flooded. Furthermore, they report the direct impact on nature due to the area not being properly cleaned before the construction of the dam, which led to contamination of water and livestock by gases from the decomposition of organic matter. In addition, it was noted that underground caves were flooding, which led to a flock of bats leaving their habitat and attacking the production of local farmers. The majority of respondents point to insufficient compensation, when it occurred, as the only mitigation measure taken. Even though there are other mitigating measures, which are highlighted in reports by Furnas, such as medical monitoring, cattle mobilization, climate and seismological monitoring, they are not perceived equally by those affected, they do not even exist for the majority of those interviewed in this research, as they do not is associated with your direct life experience. We conclude that the construction of the Serra da Mesa plant profoundly affected the lives of those social subjects who lived close to the dam, especially those who did not have material conditions. Based on our theoretical framework, the construction of the Serra da Mesa dam broke with the possibilities of human production for certain social subjects.
Doença de Chagas em comunidades rurais e/ou tradicionais do estado de Goiás, Brasil
(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2023-12-15) Leite, Liziana de Sousa; Hora, Karla Emmanuela Ribeiro; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6451685640638572; Scalize, Paulo Sérgio; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0957896448117207; Scalize , Paulo Sérgio; Dias, Alexandre Pessoa; Teixeira, Denilson
Chagas disease (CD) is recognized by the World Health Organization as a Neglected Tropical Disease, related to poverty and socio-environmental vulnerability. Even though Brazil is part of the American continent where 18 countries managed to interrupt household vector transmission in part or all of its territory, it has been recording an increase in the number of cases, mainly in the Amazon region, related to oral transmission and extra-household vector transmission, resulting from work habits and activities characteristic of the rural environment. Furthermore, autochthonous species of triatomines have been discovered with high colonization potential, the existence of residual foci of T. infestans, the influence of deforestation and the proximity of habitations to the barbers' natural environments, as well as the presence of T. cruzi reservoir animals, as impactful causes in the domestic transmissibility cycle. The purpose of this research arose with the identification of chagasic individuals in rural and/or traditional communities in the state of Goiás, visited during the execution of the Rural Health and Sanitation Project (SanRural Project), in which the authors participated, developed by the Federal University of Goiás (UFG) in conjunction with the National Health Foundation (FUNASA), instigating the assessment of the housing conditions of these communities, which may promote the occurrence of CD. Thus, this research aimed to evaluate whether housing conditions in rural and/or traditional communities in the state of Goiás can influence the occurrence of Chagas disease. Through a systematic literature review (RSL), using as a basis the Periodical Portal of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES), a discussion was held about the uses and concepts of the terms housing and habitability, proposing the definition of concepts of rural housing and rural habitability to guide understanding and define the study area of this research. Then, also through RSL, using the Scopus platform, a survey of predictive variables was carried out, which may influence the occurrence and spread of Chagas disease in a rural environment. Using the predictor variables raised and the data collected in the SanRural Project, a relationship was made between the occurrence of Chagas disease in rural and/or traditional communities in the state of Goiás with predictor variables characteristic of housing and the rural population residing in these communities. During visits to 48 quilombola, riverside communities and settlements, blood collections and semi-structured interviews were carried out, as well as observations of the environment. Serological investigation was carried out using the immunoenzymatic method and statistical analyzes using the logistic GAM model. A prevalence of 9.4% of people infected with T. cruzi was identified in 32 communities, with 7.0% of the population being settlers, 11.3% quilombolas and 1.5% riverside residents, finding a significant relationship between cases and: the typology of the community, number of residents up to one year of age, number of residents with a previous diagnosis of CD, structural material of the intra-domestic wall, storage of water for washing food in a fiber cement water tank, age of the person responsible for housing and resident-room ratio. The relationships found showed DC's resignation to conditions of vulnerable housing, education and sanitation services, presenting the importance of knowledge and health education, since the smaller number of resident rooms and the habit of using mosquito nets reduced the chance of, respectively, 50.0% and 70.0% of finding at least 1 (one) seropositive individual for T. cruzi randomly selected in the household. Since entomological surveillance must rely on the active participation of the population in notifying kissing bugs, as well as teams of research and health technicians, to seek control of CD, this research aims to contribute to the National Chagas Disease Control Program from the Ministry of Health, presenting the rural reality and drawing attention to the inherent existence of housing conditions, behaviors/habits and lack of knowledge of the rural population about Chagas disease, and the risk of its spread. Furthermore, it aims to assist and encourage new research in the areas of health, sanitation and multidisciplinary areas, focused on rural reality and the various realities concerning Chagas disease.
Hortas escolares urbanas: da produção de alimentos ao ensino da sustentabilidade ambiental
(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2022-10-26) Melo, Tálita Nogueira Gonzaga; Hora, Karla Emmanuela Ribeiro; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6451685640638572; Hora, Karla Emmanuela Ribeiro; Echeverria, Agustina Rosa; Leandro, Wilson Mozena
The urban and peri-urban practice has been strengthened in multiples spaces of the cities, through multiple entry points, which range from self-consumption and food supplementation, alternative employment and income for vulnerable groups, solutions for environmentally resilient cities, to an opportunity to practice social and environmental education activities. Considering this last aspect, the theme of this research is the study of the use of urban school gardens as a pedagogical tool for environmental sustainability, integrated with the provision of healthy food in school environments and the challenges of the practice itself. Starting from the question of how urban school gardens are effective, we sought to discuss how they are appropriate in the teaching-learning activities about the environmental issues, analyzing the obstacles to their incorporation as a teaching tool. Likewise, we sought to understand how the food produced in the gardens is used in school meals and how maintenance activities are carried out. Methodologically, the research has a qualitative nature and is based on technical procedures of bibliographic, documental and participant observation research, semi-structured interviews and photographic records. As an analytical object, the research relies on the study of multiple cases of four school gardens implemented in the year 2021, in the cities of Anápolis, Catalão, Rio Verde and Ouvidor, in the State of Goiás. The results indicate that, although school gardens are difficult to maintain, they benefit school meals by offering quality food, in great variety and quantity. At the same time, they have potential uses as an educational tool in the development of education activities for the teaching of environmental sustainability.
Disputa pela terra em Moçambique - caso do distrito de Marracuene
(Universidade Federal de Goiás, 2024-01-29) Yung, Telma Leo; Salomão, Alda Isabel Anibal; Miziara, Fausto; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3275079358565458; Miziara, Fausto; Hora, Karla Emmanuela Ribeiro; Campos, Ricardo Luiz Sapia de
The research was carried out within the scope of the Graduate Program in Environmental Sciences, with the aim of investigating land access and tenure in the Marracuene District, Mozambique. The main focus is to identify the main factors that cause land disputes in the study area, with an emphasis on the point of view of traditional producers. The increase in the demand for land in the district is driven by several factors, such as the geographical proximity to Maputo city, the "Maputo Ring Road", the Bridge over the Incomati River that connects Macaneta and the holding of the "Maputo International Fair - FACIM". In addition, the purpose of housing and investments in sectors such as trade, agriculture and tourism also contribute to the pressure on land. The combination of these factors contributes to an increase in demand for land in the district, generating pressure on land, boosting the economic, social and environmental development of the region. To investigate this, the study adopted mixed research procedure techniques, relying on field observations, questionnaires and interviews. Based on data collected in the field and information provided by the Serviço Distrital de Planeamento e Infra - Estruturas (SDPI), we identified four communities facing disputes over land, involving different actors, being: (1) Marracuene Vista Company, Traditional Leaders and the neighborhood Mapulango; (2) Community of Eduardo Mondlane I and Regulus Magaia; (3) Guava Peasant Association and the Korean Mission; (4) Community of the neighborhood of Zintava and Sr. Milton Torre de Vale and Fundo para o Fomento e Habitação (F.F.H). To resolve these disputes, the parties involved are invited to participate in conciliation processes, mediated by the Land Chiefs, with the assistance of the Regulus. In some cases, the block chief and Neighborhood Secretary may also be involved, depending on the nature of the conflict or dispute. In situations considered difficult to resolve, cases related to land disputes in Marracuene can be referred to higher instances, such as the 2nd and 1st levels, including at the locality level, the Administrative Post and, finally, the District Administration. The Dispute Resolution Committee, present at the SDPI (Serviço Distrital de Planeamento e Infra- Estruturas), also plays an important role in the mediation and arbitration process. These higher authorities are called upon to seek more comprehensive and complex solutions, in order to achieve a fair and adequate resolution to land disputes or conflicts. The district of Marracuene is going through a period of expansion marked by the transition from an agrarian base to latent urban growth, dissociated from the industrialization process. This transition highlights urbanization associated with commercialization, reflected in the increase in land prices and the boost in the tourism sector. However, this process has been accompanied by the destruction of agrarian and peasant life, resulting in a totalizing social dynamic of urban society and the perception among interviewees reveals concerns about the loss of agricultural land, resettlement without adequate compensation and corruption in the bodies of dispute resolution. With all this, these interests often trigger territorial disputes and environmental degradation. The necessary approach must reconcile socioeconomic development with environmental preservation and social justice, requiring the effective implementation of public policies and the protection of the rights of local communities to ensure fair and sustainable land management.
