title: Understanding Portuguese idiomatic expressions as L2: evidence of verbal protocols

description: A report is presented on a study that aimed at investigating to what extent the cognitive processes used by five Portuguese L2 speakers to understand ten idiomatic phrases (EIs) in a decontextualized way would be similar to those used for the understanding of the same phrases in a context. The analysis of the data, collected by means of retrospective verbal protocols and protocols of pause, revealed that the use of analogy and associations based on previous knowledge was the preferential strategy for the decontextualized idiomatic phrases, while the use of microtextual signs was the most used one in those EIs on a context. In addition, the data pointed to an approximation only partial of the cognitive processes used by the participants in both contexts of attribution of meaning to new EIs. The results are assessed based on Liontas (2001, 2002), Polónia (2009) and Sadeghi, Dastjerd and Ketabi (2010).

title: Peasant family farming and short agri-food chains: the Municipal Fair of Yuty - Caazapá (Paraguay)

description: Abstract: The short chains have consolidated themselves as one of the main markets for family peasant agriculture, with emphasis on the holidays of producers. The objective of this study is to describe and to analyze the general characteristics of the Municipal Fair of Yuty and understand the importance of this space for farmers and consumers. This research began with a literature review, secondary data analysis, and an exploratory investigation of four people who, at the time, were part of the fair. Subsequently, a survey was applied to nine producers (all of the people of fair that were on the day) and eleven consumers present at the fair. The results found indicate that the Municipal Fair of Yuty has a great importance among the producers that commercialize in this space, especially because they sell at a satisfactory price all the products they carry. In addition, the fair is very important for the income of producer families and for the promotion of the local market. In this sense, the Yuty fair is a form of market access that benefits farmers and consumers, generating more inclusive processes of development and contributing to food and nutritional security.

title: Analysis of vegetation dynamics using the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) at the archipelago of Fernando de Noronha, Pernambuco, Brazil

description: Abstract: Island environments have specific biotic and abiotic characteristics, as fragility, limitation of natural resources, geographic isolation, and fragmentation are determining factors that directly affect these areas. Thus, it is relevant to understand the natural evolution of the landscape in the islands, considering the anthropic actions and climate changes in the transformation of vegetation cover, as a means of time series and study of satellite images. This paper aims to analyze the dynamics of the landscape (changes in vegetation cover) of the Fernando de Noronha Archipelago concerning urban development, and other anthropic activities that occurred between 1999 and 2018, through remote sensing images, to establish comparisons with the Island Management Plans that were elaborated in the years of 2005 and 2017. Also, this study intends to raise elements to assist in the spatial management of the Archipelago and to establish Public Conservation Policies for Fernando de Noronha and other island areas. Images from Landsat 7 and Landsat 8 were obtained for scenes from 1999 and 2017, respectively. These images were preprocessed and analyzed in Quantum GIS 2.18 software. And applied the NDVI calculation. It was also used the database found in the sustainable management plan of the archipelago provided by the state government of Pernambuco. With these data, it was possible to diagnose a vegetative growth on the island of about 45.36% in 17 years corroborating with the changes found in the data coming from the island’s management plan. However, there are no changes in the phytosociological diversity of the island, this cause is pointed out to the invading and ruderals species of the island that are established and propagate.

title: Social capital in Brazil: an analysis of its determinants

description: Abstract: The article analyzes the determinants of social capital in Brazil. To meet this objective, we initially calculated a social capital index based on the principal component technique. For the construction of this index, we considered twenty indicators taken from the World Values Survey (WVS), eleven of them related to the interviewed participation in organizations/associations, and nine referring to interpersonal trust. The analysis is based on the marginal effects of the logit model. Among the results obtained, we found that the variable that most tends to contribute to the formation of social capital is education. Having a college degree tends to increase the chances of an individual having, for example, a “very high” endowment of social capital by 14%. We also observed that those who live in the Midwest and South regions of Brazil are more likely to have a higher level of this capital. The dummies variables related to gender and race were not statistically significant. Thus, the discrimination factor, based on these variables, does not seem to interfere in the process of forming the social capital of Brazilians. As a policy proposition, we recommended to intensify public policies aimed primarily at the expansion and quality of education in Brazil, since this is the main contributing factor for the formation of a high level of social capital in the country.

title: Socio-economic profile and environmental perception of fishers of Lagoa do Apodi, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil

description: Abstract: Fishing is one of the main activities developed to ensure food, contributing to its development. However, currently has faced difficulties − especially the small-scale fishing, which uses low-technology −, in addition to the greed of large fishing corporations. The present work aims to describe the small-scale fishing in the Lagoa do Apodi, RN, through the description of the socio-economic profile and environmental perception of fishers. As a methodological procedure, we performed a literature review; preparation of semi-structured questionnaire, covering aspects of socio-economic profile and environmental perception, applied to 52 fishers, following the random sampling process; and processing of data with Microsoft Excel Software 2013. We observed that the fishers present low income and education; however, these factors did not influence on environmental perception of individuals. The positive impacts of fishing activity in the lagoon are related to income generation, job creation, and food production. We evidenced that the fishers are aware of the negative impacts arising from the activity, such as over-fishing, which leads to scarcity of fish and even to changing water quality. The main conflicts to fishers are relating to predatory fishing, land dispute between fishers and farmers, and with urbanization process with sewage dumping. With the results obtained, we detected an absence of public policies that may contribute to the promotion of small-scale fishing geared to local development.

title: IODP Expedition 366 Interstitial water composite report

description: This composite report includes data from numerous interstitial water (IW) analyses (e.g., ICP-LIQUIDS and IONCHROM) in a variable set of columns. Each row combines the data from several tests (groups of measurements made on the same sample at the same time) for a particular IW sample. If data do not exist for a particular expedition, the column does not appear. To identify individual samples and tests, see each separate analysis (ALKALINITY, ICP-LIQUIDS, IONCHROM, SALINITY, SPECTRO, TITRATOR, and potentially others). Major and minor elements were determined by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrocsopy (ICP-LIQUIDS). Cations and anions were measured by ion chromatography (IONCHROM). Complex ions were measured by colorimetric measurements using a UV-VIS spectrometer (SPECTRO). Alkalinity and chloride was measured by titration (ALKALINITY and TITRATOR). Dissolved carbon (DC), dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) were measured by combustion in a total organic carbon (TOC) analyzer. Salinity was measured by refractometer (SALINITY). pH was measured by ion-selective electrode as part of the alkalinity procedure and is reported in the ALKALINITY analysis.

title: Ethnopharmacological and botanical evaluation of medicinal plants used by Brazilian Amazon Indian community

description: Abstract: Plants have been widely used to treat many diseases, especially by traditional communities as Indians, that can be considered as an important source of empirical knowledge about the medicinal potential of the Brazilian biodiversity. This study aimed to investigate the use of medicinal plants by a particular Amazon-Indian community named Ikólóéhj (Gavião). The data was obtained based on a semi-structured interview and long-term visits along the indigenous area to harvest the botanical material to subsequent identification and storage in herbarium. In the present work, we identify 23 plant species and three morphospecies, distributed into Ferns / Lycophytes and Angiosperms. In addition, we show that leaves (78%), bark (13%) and roots (9%) were used via maceration (49%), topical use (26%), infusion and bath (13%), and decoction (9%). These plants were used to treat pain, diarrhea, malnutrition, parasites infection, wounds, and snakebites. We also observe that the knowledge about medicinal plants is shared to the older members of the community and this information is transmitted orally to the next generations. Thus, the present study contributes to the regrowth and preservation of knowledge about the use of medicinal plants providing important subsidies for understanding of therapeutic properties of Amazonian plants.

title: Cluster’s theoretical dimensions and its application to medical tourism

description: Abstract: Porter has two versions of the cluster concept. In 1990, the first version says that, in terms of the economy of a country, “industry” is the basic element. The key relationships are between industries, whether horizontal or vertical. In the second version, from 2000, he argues that the level of a local area or region firms and interrelations between them are the key element. In this second version, geographic location and socio-cultural factors are exogenous to his generation and development. Consequently, territorial specificities and within the socio-cultural territory not determine clusters of companies or the generation of competitive advantages. The application of this methodology to tourism is a recent task, even investigating this approach applied to the service sector, especially in the medical tourism, is a new area and, therefore, underdeveloped. Somehow, this type of groups has been applied the same principles to industrial clusters. A fundamental difference between any industrial cluster and tourism cluster lies in the fact that the former is the product that moves beyond the place of production to the place of consumption; as in any tourist cluster, the opposite happens, the demand side (tourists) is what should move to the place of production of the tourism product. This essential difference directly affects the way to plan and manage a cluster of medical tourism.

title: Food patterns and food and nutritional (in)security in the Bolsa Família Program

description: Abstract: The Bolsa Família Program (PBF) has several effects on the population with social risks and vulnerabilities, mainly in relation to food, education, and health. The objective of this study was to identify dietary patterns of beneficiary families or not of PBF in São Paulo municipality, analyzing their association with levels of food insecurity (FI). The study included 150 families. Socioeconomic, demographic, anthropometric, and food consumption aspects were evaluated through validated questionnaires. The FI was evaluated by the Brazilian Food Insecurity Scale (BFIS). Food patterns were calculated using Cluster analysis. The association between FI and PBF with dietary patterns was tested using the Poisson regression model. Three dietary patterns were identified: restricted, healthy and traditional. The restricted pattern was associated with lower educational level, anemia history, moderate FI (MFI) or severe FI (SFI), and higher mean age. In the unadjusted and adjusted for age analysis, the families with MFI or SFI were respectively 55% and 57% more likely to adhere to a restricted pattern and 41% less likely to follow a healthy pattern. Having a healthy or traditional pattern was related to the origin of this population, revealing an important element within the SAN concept: food sovereignty.
