Infracţiunea de luare de ostatici a devenit o problemă internaţională stringentă în virtutea faptului că aceasta, prin pericolul pe care îl prezintă, prin formele de manifestare şi prin efectele pe care le produce, depăşeşte cadrul dreptului intern al unei ţări şi prezintă o ameninţare pentru întreaga comunitate internaţională. Gradul prejudiciabil al infracţiunii de luare de ostatici este extrem de mare. Acesta este determinat de faptul că infracţiunea dată atentează atât la securitatea publică, cât şi la libertatea, inviolabilitatea, viaţa, sănătatea persoanei.

Inúmeras foram as mudanças das punições de indivíduos que não cumpriam as regras e normas do convívio em Sociedade. No princípio, a punição era no corpo, através de torturas e mortes. Com o decorrer do tempo, foram modificadas, onde eram para “alma”, virando mais humanas, não utilizando de força física para o cumprimento das mesmas. Os Estabelecimentos Prisionais começam a ser construídos de forma em que se consiga controlar o apenado e dar toda assistência necessária. Porém, com o crescimento enorme do número de apenados, perdeu-se todo objetivo principal da cadeia, que seria ressocializar o preso. A falta de investimento e de preocupação do Estado tornou o sistema penitenciário um caos, onde os indivíduos são jogados nos referidos Estabelecimentos e esquecidos, com pouca assistência e cuidado, aumentando cada vez mais o número de reingresso de apenados.
O Alfa e o Ômega: a vida das grandes cidades, suas fases e porque deveriam nos importar
Authors: Paz Daniel Juracy Mellado
Published: April 2021

O artigo apresenta a compreensão que Jane Jacobs possui da vitalidade urbana, a partir das teorias sobre a complexidade organizada. As cidades são expressão do fenômeno universal do desenvolvimento, da ordem crescente que expulsa a entropia, onde o próprio termo vitalidade não é uma metáfora, e sim a própria raiz do fenômeno, regido por poucos e inexoráveis princípios. O Nascimento é a emergência de um novo tipo de ordem, diferente da soma das partes, com a formação de conexões cada vez mais intrincadas. Para Jacobs o Crescimento é quantitativo (a expansão) e qualitativo (a diferenciação) em um contínuo co-desenvolvimento, alimentado pelas várias formas de realimentação positiva e negativa em um universo instável, e seus efeitos ao longo do tempo. A Morte é a perda da complexidade do sistema, neste caso as cidades, e Jacobs expõe as causas e meios da incapacidade em responder às circunstâncias mutáveis, revendo o conceito de eficiência. Ela ainda tenta demonstrar as condições para sua Sobrevivência, por meio das inovações nas bifurcações, apesar dos resultados incertos e inesperados. E precisamente por essa incerteza, constitutiva da realidade, Jane Jacobs oscilará entre o desespero e a esperança.
Development of the drop Freezing Ice Nuclei Counter (FINC), intercomparison of droplet freezing techniques, and use of soluble lignin as an atmospheric ice nucleation standard
Authors: Miller Anna J. , Brennan Killian P. , Mignani Claudia , Wieder Jörg , David Robert O. , Borduas-Dedekind Nadine
Published: April 2021

Abstract. Aerosol–cloud interactions, including the ice nucleation of supercooled liquid water droplets caused by ice-nucleating particles (INPs) and macromolecules (INMs), are a source of uncertainty in predicting future climate. Because INPs and INMs have spatial and temporal heterogeneity in source, number, and composition, predicting their concentration and distribution is a challenge requiring apt analytical instrumentation. Here, we present the development of our drop Freezing Ice Nuclei Counter (FINC) for the estimation of INP and INM concentrations in the immersion freezing mode. FINC's design builds upon previous droplet freezing techniques (DFTs) and uses an ethanol bath to cool sample aliquots while detecting freezing using a camera. Specifically, FINC uses 288 sample wells of 5–60 µL volume, has a limit of detection of −25.4 ± 0.2 ∘C with 5 µL, and has an instrument temperature uncertainty of ± 0.5 ∘C. We further conducted freezing control experiments to quantify the nonhomogeneous behavior of our developed DFT, including the consideration of eight different sources of contamination. As part of the validation of FINC, an intercomparison campaign was conducted using an NX-illite suspension and an ambient aerosol sample from two other drop freezing instruments: ETH's DRoplet Ice Nuclei Counter Zurich (DRINCZ) and the University of Basel's LED-based Ice Nucleation Detection Apparatus (LINDA). We also tabulated an exhaustive list of peer-reviewed DFTs, to which we added our characterized and validated FINC. In addition, we propose herein the use of a water-soluble biopolymer, lignin, as a suitable ice-nucleating standard. An ideal INM standard should be inexpensive, accessible, reproducible, unaffected by sample preparation, and consistent across techniques. First, we compared lignin's freezing temperature across different drop freezing instruments, including on DRINCZ and LINDA, and then determined an empirical fit parameter for future drop freezing validations. Subsequently, we showed that commercial lignin has consistent ice-nucleating activity across product batches and demonstrated that the ice-nucleating ability of aqueous lignin solutions is stable over time. With these findings, we present lignin as a good immersion freezing standard for future DFT intercomparisons in the research field of atmospheric ice nucleation.
Tree-ring-based spring precipitation reconstruction in the Sikhote-Alin' Mountain range

Published: April 2021

Abstract. Climate reconstructions provide important insight into
past climate variability and help us to understand the large-scale climate
drivers and impact of climate change. However, our knowledge about long-term
year-to-year climate variability is still limited due to the lack of
high-resolution reconstructions. Here, we present the first precipitation
reconstructions based on tree rings from Pinus koraiensis (Korean pine) from three sites
placed along a latitudinal (330 km) gradient in the Sikhote-Alin' mountains in the Russian Far East. The tree-ring width chronologies were built using standard
tree-ring procedures. We reconstructed the April–June precipitation for the
southern Sikhote-Alin' (SSA), March–June precipitation for the central
Sikhote-Alin' (CSA) and March–July precipitation for the northwestern
Sikhote-Alin' (NSA) over the years 1602 to 2013, 1804 to 2009 and 1858 to 2013, respectively. We found that an important limiting factor for Korean pine
growth was precipitation within the period when the air current coming from
the continent during the cold period is replaced with the impact of the wet
ocean air current. We identified that common wet years for SSA, CSA and NSA
occurred in 1805, 1853, 1877, 1903, 1906, 1927, 1983 and 2009 and common dry
years occurred in 1821, 1869, 1919, 1949 and 2003. Our reconstructions have
3-, 15- and 60-year periods, which suggests the influence of the El
Niño–Southern Oscillation and Pacific Decadal Oscillation on the
region's climate and relevant processes. Despite the impact of various
global processes, the main contribution to precipitation formation in the study
area is still made by the Pacific Ocean, which determines their amount and
periodicity.
On the mechanistic foundation and limit of Liebig’s law of the minimum
Authors: Tang Jinyun , Riley William
Published: April 2021

In ecosystem biogeochemistry, Liebig’s law of the minimum (LLM) is one of the most widely used rules to model and interpret biological growth. Although it is intuitively accepted as being true, its mechanistic foundation has never been clearly presented. We here first show that LLM can be derived from the law of mass action, the state of art theory for modeling biogeochemical reactions. We further show that there are (at least) another two approximations (the synthesizing unit (SU) model and additive model) that are more accurate than LLM in approximating the law of mass action. We then evaluated the LLM, SU, and additive models against growth data of algae and plants. For algae growth, we found all three models are equally accurate, albeit with different parameter values. For plants, LLM failed to accurately model one dataset, and achieved equally good results for other datasets with very different parameters. We also find that LLM does not allow flexible elemental stoichiometry, which is an oft-observed characteristic of plants, when an organism’s growth is modeled as a function of substrate uptake flux. In summary, we caution the use of LLM for modeling biological growth if one is interested in representing the organisms’ capability in adapting to different nutrient conditions.   
A two point machine learning method for spatial prediction for soil : overcoming the spatially heterogeneous distribution and relationship  of soil heavy metal concentration  
Authors: Bingbo Gao , Stein Alfred , Jinfeng Wang
Published: April 2021

The soil heavy metal contamination has becoming a serious problem worldwide. An accurate prediction of soil heavy metal concentration at un-sampled locations using a small sample remains a challenge, because of many natural and human factors and resulted complex heterogeneous pattern, and the relationship between influencing factors are also not homogeneous. To overcome those heterogeneities and improve the prediction accuracy, a two point machine learning method is proposed in this paper by fully leveraging the spatial relationship and similarity relationship of high dimensional ancillary variables. It firstly models the difference between paired points using machine learning model, then predict the concentration differences between sampling points and the un-sampled points, and finally utilize the predicted differences to choose near neighbors to obtain the final concentration prediction. In this method, an innovative way to search near neighbors for local model from the difference of response variable was put forward to overcome the Curse of Dimensionality. Its performance was illustrated in two diverse case studies and it is demonstrated that proposed method can dramatically improve the prediction accuracy for soil heavy metal. Besides spatial prediction of soil pollution, it can also be applied to spatial prediction of other other elements of the earth system. And in further the machine learning method in this paper can be replaced to any other supervised learning model according to specific situations.

 

 

 

 
Spatially uniform surface runoff as a result of erosion-induced high hydrolocial conncenctiviey over an extremelydegraded catchment 
Authors: Zheng Mingguo
Published: April 2021

Previous studies have suggested that runoff reduces with slope length, and the scaling trend diminishes with the degree of land degradation. This study further hypothesized that runoff is scale-independent and spatially uniform in extremely degraded landscapes. We tested the hypothesis on the Chinese Loess Plateau. Runoff data were collected from a densely rilled and gullied loess headwater with soil erosion intensity close to 20,000 t km-2 yr-1.  The data included observations from seven arable experimental plots of various lengths (20 to 164 m) and gradients (9 to 32°), as well as the headwater outlet. The results showed that the erosion-induced network of rills and gullies lowered runoff reinfiltration and resulted in exceptional high flow connectivity, thus obscuring the effects of other environmental conditions (mainly topography) and contributing to uniform runoff from the upper hillslope to the headwater outlet. The observations held at the event, annual, and mean annual time scales, implying that the investigated watershed is simply the sum of individual slopes. This study highlights the effect of erosion processes on the ensuing runoff yield. The effect should be fully addressed in studies of runoff yield in semi-arid areas, which are among the most erodible landscapes due to sparse land cover.
Machine learning to automate rapid soil health assessment using infrared spectroscopy
Authors: Deiss Leonardo , Oottikkal Shameema , Tomko Karen , Huang Wanyu , Culman Steve , Demyan Scott
Published: April 2021

Soil infrared spectroscopy has great potential for estimating soil properties, but reference soil measurements are typically required in combination with multivariate statistical models to estimate soil properties. User-friendly predictive tools based on open-source statistical environment remain one of the main limitations to enable technology diffusion to non-specialist users. Our aim is to build capacity for an automated machine learning routine for rapid and robust prediction of soil health indicators using lab acquired soil infrared spectra. This intelligent system runs on R statistical environment and includes (1) a diverse soil spectral library comprising main physiographic regions from the USA Midwest region under diverse land uses and various sampling depths, (2) a classification process to detect potential outliers in newly acquired spectra using supervised machine learning techniques, and (3) a multi-model optimized prediction process based on linear and non-linear statistical procedures (partial least squares, support vector machines, and neural network). This prediction system works at the intersection of soil and data science and high-performance computing to enable efficient parallel processing of spectral data on multi-core coprocessors. Using artificial intelligence to automate soil infrared spectroscopy is a fundamental demand that will make this technique an effective routine in soil laboratories to estimate soil health.
A retrospective cohort study comparing clinical outcomes and healthcare resource utilisation in patients undergoing surgery for osteomyelitis in England: a case for reorganising orthopaedic infection services

Published: April 2021

Abstract. Aims: An investigation of the impact of a multidisciplinary bone infection unit (BIU) undertaking osteomyelitis surgery with a single-stage protocol on clinical
outcomes and healthcare utilisation compared to national outcomes in
England. Patients and Methods: A tertiary referral multidisciplinary BIU was compared to the rest of
England (ROE) and a subset of the 10 next busiest centres based on osteomyelitis treatment episode volume (Top Ten), using the Hospital
Episodes Statistics database (HES). A total of 25 006 patients undergoing
osteomyelitis surgery between April 2013 and March 2017 were included. Data
on secondary healthcare resource utilisation and clinical indicators were
extracted for 24 months before and after surgery. Results:
Patients treated at the BIU had higher orthopaedic healthcare utilisation in
the 2 years prior to their index procedure, with more admissions (p< 0.001) and a mean length of stay (LOS) over 4 times longer than other groups (10.99 d, compared to 2.79 d for Top Ten and 2.46 d
for the ROE, p< 0.001). During the index inpatient period, the BIU had fewer mean theatre visits (1.25) compared to the TT (1.98, p< 0.001) and the ROE (1.64, p= 0.001). The index inpatient period was shorter in the BIU (11.84 d), 33.6 %
less than the Top Ten (17.83 d, p< 0.001) and 29.9 % shorter
than the ROE (16.88 d, p< 0.001). During follow-up, BIU patients underwent fewer osteomyelitis-related reoperations than Top Ten centres (p= 0.0139) and the ROE (p= 0.0137). Mortality was lower (4.71 %) compared to the Top Ten (20.06 %, p< 0.001) and the ROE (22.63 %, p< 0.001). The cumulative BIU total amputation rate was lower (6.47 %) compared to the Top Ten (15.96 %, p< 0.001) and the ROE (12.71 %, p< 0.001). Overall healthcare
utilisation was lower in the BIU for all inpatient admissions, LOS, and
Accident and Emergency (A&E) attendances. Conclusion: The benefits of managing osteomyelitis in a multi-disciplinary team (MDT) specialist setting included reduced hospital stays, lower reoperation rates
for infection recurrence, improved survival, lower amputation rates, and
lower overall healthcare utilisation. These results support the
establishment of centrally funded multidisciplinary bone infection units that will improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare utilisation.
Dynamic inflow model for a Floating Horizontal Axis Wind Turbine in surge motion
Authors: Ferreira Carlos , Yu Wei , Sala Arianna , Vire Axelle
Published: April 2021

Abstract. Floating Offshore Wind Turbines may experience large surge motions which, when faster than the local wind speed, cause rotor-wake interaction. Previous research hypothesised that this phenomena can result in a turbulent wake state or even a vortex ring state, invalidating the Actuator Disc Momentum Theory and the use of the Blade Element Momentum Theory. We challenge this hypothesis and demonstrate that the Actuator Disc Momentum Theory is valid and accurate in predicting the induction at the actuator in surge, even for large and fast motions. To achieve this, we derive a dynamic inflow model which mimics the vorticity-velocity system and the effect of the motion. The predictions of the model are compared against results from other authors and from a semi-free wake vortex-ring model. The results show that the surge motion and rotor-wake interaction do not cause a turbulent wake state or vortex ring state, and that the application of Actuator Disc Momentum Theory and Blade Element Momentum Theory is valid and accurate, when correctly applied in an inertial reference frame. The results show excellent agreement in all cases. The proposed dynamic inflow model includes an adaptation for highly loaded flow and it is accurate and simple enough to be easily implemented in most Blade Element Momentum models.

The One Belt One Road Initiative: An Enabler of Entrepreneurship or Big Business in Developing Countries
Authors: Velayutham Sivakumar
Published: April 2021

In March 2015, China proposed the Belt and Road Initiative (OBOR) as its signature initiative to advance economic prosperity of the countries along the Belt and Road. The initiative promises economic development including entrepreneurial development and prosperity to mainly developing countries in Asia, Central Europe, and Africa. Entrepreneurship drives economic change and innovation while at the same time expanding opportunity and unleashing the initiative of people. Entrepreneurs are crucial to building prosperous societies that deliver opportunity to all. Recent evidence however suggests that the entrepreneurial economy is faltering and a small group of giant companies dominate the global economy. This paper seeks to critically appraise the possible effects of OBOR on entrepreneurship in developing countries along its route. Will OBOR revitalise entrepreneurship in developing countries or further intensify the dominance of the economy by a small group of giant companies. Empirical study indicates a high emphasis on large firms in the economic structure of OBOR countries (Novosak and Jurčík, 2018). This paper seeks to illustrate why OBOR is proving to be more of a Bane rather than a Boon to entrepreneurship in developing countries further promoting the dominance of the economy by big corporations.

Published: April 2021

This work’s objective is to present and analyze indicators that guide strategic decision making at the levels of the organizational, network, corporate, business and functional environment proposed by Witt and Meyer (2010). In this sense, in addition to the mathematical expression that defines each indicator, it has also been scrutinized what each of them can portray from the analyzed scenario. Methodologically, a descriptive meta-analysis was carried out for the classification of the indicators, categorized by PESTMC-FP, through documentary research and consultation of the database referring to the values of indexes in acceptable domains that represent organizational position for evaluation of the decision maker. The paper proposes a reflection about the evaluation of the indicators as support in the processes of formulation, analysis and control of organizational strategies.

Published: April 2021

Penelitian ini mengangkat judul “Tafsir al-Qur’ān Corak Sastrawi dan Teologis (Study kritis Tafsir al-Kasysyāf Karya al-Zamakhsyari pada ayat-ayat muḥkam-mutasyābih). Al-Kasysyāf sebagai salah satu kitab tafsir yang lahir ketika masa keemasan Islam, kitab tafsir yang terdiri dari empat jilid ini dipandang sementara para peneliti terdahulu sebagai kitab yang bernuansa sastrawi yang Mu’tazili. Atas penelitian terdahulu itu, sehingga al-Kasysyāf mendapat dua kedudukan, pertama sebagai tafsir yang dipandang positif karena pembahasannya yang banyak meneliti keagungan al-Qur’ān dari segi bahasanya, kedua tafsir ini juga dipandang banyak peneliti dengan nada negatif karena adanya unsur teologi Mu’tazili yang mewarnai penafsirannya. Unsur Mu’tazili dalam tafsir ini terlihat ketika al-Zamakhsyari menafsirkan ayat-ayat muḥkam-mutasyābih. Penelitian ini termasuk penelitian pustaka (library research) yang menggunakan data-data kepustakaan dan menggunakan metode deskriptif-analitis yaitu dengan memberikan gambaran yang komprehensif mengenai penafsiran al-Zamakhsyari terhadap ayat-ayat muḥkam-mutasyābih dalam tafsir al-Kasysyāf dengan pendekatan content analysis. Pemaparan data berkisar pada penafsiran al-Zamakhsyari dalam tafsir al-Kasysyāf terhadap ayat-ayat muḥkam-mutasyābih dengan corak tafsirnya yang sastrawi dan teologis, kemudian dianalisis dan disimpulkan. Dari hasil analisis pada penelitian ini, al-Zamakhsyari memahami bahwa muḥkam adalah ungkapannya pasti, terjaga dari kemungkinan dan kerancuan arti, sedangkan mutasyābih adalah ayat-ayat yang mengandung arti yang relatif (kemungkinan). Ketika ada dua ayat yang makna zahirnya terlihat bertentangan, maka salah satu ayat dipandangnya sebagai ayat mutasyābih, karena ayat-ayat muḥkam itu merupakan ummu al-kitab (pokok al-Qur’ān), maka menurutnya ayat-ayat mutasyābih harus mengacu dan dikembalikan kepada ayat-ayat muḥkam. Dalam menjelaskan ayat-ayat yang dipandangnya sebagai ayat mutasyābih, al-Zamakhsyari menggunakan segenap kemampuannya dengan menggunakan ilmu Bayan khususnya teori majāz, isti‘ārah, dan tamṡīl sebagai langkah ta’wīl untuk melahirkan makna baru.

Published: April 2021

O clima é o resumo dos elementos meteorológicos observados e registrados durante um longo período de tempo tendo estreita afinidade com a vegetação da área estudada. Tem-se como objetivo estudar e realizar a classificação climática pelo método de Köppen e Thornthwaite para o município de Bom Jesus- Piauí, gerando informações importantes para o planejamento e racionalização das suas diversas atividades produtivas e de políticas agropecuárias e de agronegócios, para as cooperativas e os agricultores em geral. Os dados meteorológicos foram obtidos do Instituto Nacional de Meteorologia, referentes à temperatura média mensal compensada do ar e pluviais precipitação pluviométrica mensal de período de 1960 a 2018. No modelo de Köppen o clima é do tipo Aw (clima tropical com estação seca de Inverno). Nas classificações climáticas de Thornthwaite, utilizando-se o Balanço Hídrico e os índices: hídrico, aridez e umidade têm-se os seguintes tipos climáticos em conformidades com o cenário pluviométrico, no cenário seco o clima é árido; no cenário regular o clima é semiárido; nos cenários chuvoso e médio os tipos de climas encontrados foram subúmido seco. Entre os meses de dezembro a julho a temperatura média tem representação de 64% da média anual e nos meses de agosto a novembro é de 36% da flutuabilidade térmica anual. Entre os meses de novembro a abril tem 89% de representação do índice pluvial anual e entre os meses de maio a outubro sua representação é de 10%. Salienta-se que nos meses de julho e agosto não se observa ou registram índices pluviais.

As plantas medicinais podem ser utilizadas como uma alternativa ou de forma complementar para os tratamentos medicinais convencionais, sendo este conhecimento transmitido ao longo das gerações de pais para filhos, valorizando-se assim os conhecimentos tradicionais dos antepassados. Este trabalho foi desenvolvido no mês de abril de 2018 no município de Serraria, e, o objetivo do estudo foi fazer um levantamento sobre o conhecimento e uso de plantas medicinais por agricultores familiares do município de Serraria-PB. A atividade foi dividida em 3 etapas: ¹levantamento participativo das principais plantas medicinais utilizadas pelos agricultores da Comunidade Matinha, Zona Rural de Serraria-PB; ²confecção de folhetim informativo com informações das plantas identificadas na etapa anterior; ³Atividade de formação continuada (oficina) sobre produção e uso de plantas medicinais com agricultores, agricultoras e jovens agricultores participantes da Feira da Agricultura Familiar de Serraria-PB (FAFS) e representantes de equipe de produção e comercialização de flores, além de dois estudantes do programa de Pós Graduação em Ciências Agrárias (Agroecologia) da UFPB, Campus III que atuaram como facilitadores. Foram produzidas 200 mudas de plantas medicinais a partir da técnica da estaquia, além da socialização de diversos saberes locais. As plantas medicinais se constituem em uma importante estratégia para as famílias rurais no que diz respeito a economia na aquisição de remédios, podendo ser uma fonte de renda extra quando comercializadas em feiras ou demais pontos de comercialização, tendo como um de seus maiores benefícios a acessibilidade em seus quintais e hortas, a toda hora, sem gastos adicionais.
AVALIAÇÃO DOS ÍNDICES DE EXTREMOS CLIMÁTICOS NO AGRESTE CENTRAL DE PERNAMBUCO

Vários fatores ocasionam modificações no clima, causando o surgimento de eventos que alteram o regime de chuvas e comprometendo o desenvolvimento da vida no planeta. Portanto, o objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar as tendências climáticas dependentes da precipitação pluviométrica no Agreste Central de Pernambuco por meio dos índices climáticos. Foram selecionados dados de precipitação pluviométrica de 9 dos 71 municípios que formam o Agreste de Pernambuco, sendo estes Alagoinha, Barra de Guarabira, Belo Jardim, Bezerros, Brejo da Madre de Deus, Cachoeirinha, Caruaru, Gravatá e São Bento do Una, no período de 1963 a 2017, obtidos no site da Agência Pernambucana de Águas e Clima (APAC). Os dados foram processados através do software RClimdex, e gerados os índices climáticos precipitação total anual, dias consecutivos secos, quantidade máxima de precipitação em um dia e número de dias com precipitação acima de 25 mm. Os resultados parciais mostram uma tendência de diminuição da precipitação total anual para todas as localidades exceto Barra de Guabiraba e Cachoeirinha. Para os dias consecutivos secos observou-se um equilíbrio entre as localidades. Barra de Guabiraba, Cachoeirinha, Gravatá e Caruaru, apresentaram diminuição desse parâmetro. Quanto à quantidade máxima de precipitação em um dia, somente as cidades de Brejo da Madre de Deus e Cachoeirinha indicaram leves tendências negativas não significativas, as demais apontaram diminuição. Números de dias com precipitação acima de 25mm apresentaram tendências negativas para todas as cidades, porém, valores não significativos. Mesmo que uma parte dos parâmetros avaliados não indicarem tendências significativas, pode-se afirmar que há uma diminuição na quantidade de chuva para região prejudicando assim toda forma de desenvolvimento da região, sobretudo agricultura e pecuária, que predomina na região, e que a falta de água impossibilita sua realização.

Tendo a crise hídrica mundial como causa de inúmeros conflitos, o ser humano tende cada vez mais a adotar medidas para proteção e conservação dos recursos hídricos, bem como desenvolver tecnologias voltadas para a convivência com a seca nas regiões afetadas por tal fenômeno. Neste trabalho realizamos a caracterização da área de estudo, para que a partir desta análise, tornar possível o desenvolvimento de atividades de orientação, formação e capacitação desses produtores para entender como a região onde os mesmos estão localizados afeta direta e indiretamente sua realidade, através da utilização de dados observacionais do satélite Landsat-8 juntamente com dados de precipitação pluviométrica disponibilizados pela Agência Pernambucana de Águas e Clima. Para obtenção de informações das áreas de cultivo foi realizada uma pesquisa direcionada aos moradores da comunidade. Levantamos informações a respeito da disponibilidade de água da região e suas formas de captação e armazenamento. Ao observar os dados de NDVI gerados e o índice pluviométrico da região, nota-se que a queda do índice pluviométrico, associada a pouca vegetação, influencia diretamente na quantidade de água no solo, demonstrando a influência positiva das cisternas na comunidade.
Poesia Popular, a Agroecologia e a Construção da Identidade Rural no Território do Pajeú
Authors: Cabral Caio de Meneses
Published: April 2021

Este trabalho apresenta dados preliminares de pesquisa de doutorado que está sendo desenvolvida por estes autores. Para tal, focamos especificamente em um dos objetivos da pesquisa, que é analisar o papel da poesia popular na construção da identidade rural no Território do Pajeú. A partir desses dados, analisamos como a convergência entre a Agroecologia e a Poesia Popular Rural pode contribuir no fazer agroecológico no Pajeú. A metodologia desenhada para a coleta das informações foi adaptada para o período de isolamento social decorrente do advento da pandemia provocada pelo Novo Coronavírus (Cov-Sars-19) e faz parte do arcabouço metodológico da pesquisa. Um dos entrevistados, ao ser questionado sobre a importância da poesia popular do Pajeú para agricultura e para a sua identidade como pajeuzeiro, dentre tantas outras afirmativas, poeticamente respondeu: Sem mata, morre a cultura/De cura e de mantimento/Vindo a geração futura/Se perde o conhecimento/A terra fica doente/A população carente/Dos seus alimentos nobres/O capital tem seus picos/Os ricos ficam mais ricos/Os pobres muito mais pobres (estrofe desenvolvida por Marquinhos da Serrinha, poeta rural do Pajeú). O diálogo entre a poesia popular e a Agroecologia parece ser um caminho estratégico para a expansão do fazer agroecológico. No Pajeú, pode-se dizer, em caráter preliminar, que sem Poesia Popular Rural não há Agroecologia!Palavras-chave: Agricultura, fazer agroecológico, poeticamente.
