title: Forest Management in the State of Amapá, Brazil

description: ABSTRACT This study aims to show the organizational capacity and structure of the forest management system of the State of Amapá, Brazil. The research was based on the principles applied in Public Administration functions. We found that forest management in Amapá is performed by four State agencies consisting of two management systems that act on the production side, with one being in direct administration as the formulator of forestry policy, and one being an autonomous agency linked to the previous one as executor of forestry policy, and the other two systems being more directly linked to protection, with one being a formulator of environmental policy and the other its executor. There was a statistically significant correlation between the perceptions of public officers and the users of institutions regarding the organizational system. Some conflicts were observed between the four institutions in terms of forest administration responsibilities. We concluded that the maintenance of the existing forest coverage is not directly due to institutional capacities.

title: Powdered coconut water as preservant of semi-heavy cocks semen

description: SUMMARY This study aimed to evaluate the effect of powered coconut water as preservant of cocks semen in different times. The experimental method was completely randomized, with treatments constituted by different times (1, 5, 10 and 15 minutes) of powered coconut water as preservant of cocks semen (Rhode Island Red lineage with 30-weeks). After collect and use of powered coconut water as preservant, the semen samples were used for inseminated of breeders of same lineage and age (16 per treatment). 280 eggs were collected for evaluation of effects on chicks (70 eggs per treatment). Were evaluated the incubation yields, chick/egg relation and gastrointestinal tract development of chicks. The data collected were submitted for variance analysis and evaluated by Tukey test at 5% of significance. Differences (p&lt;0.05) were observed in incubation yields, chick/egg relation and gastrointestinal tract development, with the exception (p&gt;0.05) of oropharynx + oesophagus length and yolk sac weight. From these results, it was concluded that the powered coconut water can be used as preservation of cocks semen up to 15 minutes. Cells exposed more time to nutrients provided by the powdered coconut water showed eggs and chicks most heavier, and better results in the incubation yields and embryo development.

title: Inceptisol Physicochemical Attributes in the Caatinga Biome Agroforestry Systems

description: ABSTRACT We evaluated two areas of sustainable management within the Caatinga and one area of conventional agricultural cultivation to compare their physicochemical attributes with those of native forest. The management strategies were as follows: (1) thinning of savanna; (2) thinning of strips; (3) conventional tillage with plowing and harrowing; and (4) native forest. The main indicators of physicochemical quality of the environments were bulk density, porosity, clay amount, phosphorus content, cation exchange capacity, and organic matter. The use of soil for agricultural purposes resulted in a reduction of soil organic matter, regardless of the tillage system. Even though the management strategy, which involved thinning of savanna, further increased the soil phosphorus content and compaction, it did not reach critical values that limit crop development.

title: Simultaneous Equations to Estimate Aboveground Biomass of Pinus caribaea var . hondurensis

description: ABSTRACT This study aimed to develop equations to predict the biomass of trunks, branches, needles and total individual biomass for Pinus caribaea var. hondurensis . A simultaneous equation system was also adjusted. Twenty (20) trees from the experimental area of the State University of Southwest Bahia (UESB), Vitória da Conquista, Bahia, Brazil, were measured and weighed, while 15 traditional models were tested for dry biomass modeling. Of the models tested for total aboveground biomass, trunk biomass and pine needle/leaf biomass, models 9, 9 and 6, respectively obtained the most accurate adjustments. The models with the best performance for branch biomass were model 2 and logistics. The use of the adjustment method for simultaneous equations assured properties of additivity between biomass compartments and total biomass, preventing distortions between the sum of the individual equations for each compartment and the total equation.

title: MACRO AND MICROMORPHOLOGIC INDICATORS OF PHYSICAL CLAYEY RED LATOSOL CULTIVATED WITH SUGARCANE

description: Abstract The southwest of Goiás stands out in the process of the recent expansion of sugarcane plantation, especially in micro-region of Quirinópolis, where previously areas of annual crops were replaced, especially soybeans, and then pasture areas on clayey dystroferric Red Latosol (LVdf) which has a high potential for compaction. The aim of this work was to evaluate the process of compaction such soils cultivated with sugarcane, considering the selected profiles were decompressed, corrected and fertilized before planting sugarcane. Such profiles have along with the current use of sugarcane varying in relation to previous use (soybean/sugarcane, pasture/sugarcane and pasture succession/soybean/sugarcane), and the management with and without fertigation with vinasse, and an area of remaining natural vegetation as control. Macro and micromorphological indicators, followed by tests evaluated in laboratory as penetration resistance and physic-hydric analysis. The results indicated surface and subsurface compaction of the soil profile studied, regardless of previous uses, being the main indicators the presence of structure tending to laminar few porous in compaction levels, and increased of soil density and of penetration resistance.

title: Applicability of predictive equations for resting energy expenditure in obese patients with obstructive sleep apnea

description: ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the applicability of predictive equations for resting energy expenditure (REE) in obese individuals with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and the effects of OSA severity on REE. Materials and methods Twenty-nine obese men, 41.5 ± 7 years old, with moderate and severe OSA were recruited. All subjects were submitted to a clinical polysomnography, body composition, and indirect calorimetry measurements. REE was also predicted by three different equations: Harris and Benedict (1919), Cunningham (1990), and DRI (2002). Results No effects of OSA severity on REE were found. The measured REE (2416.0 ± 447.1 kcal/day) and the REE predicted by equations were different from each other (F = 2713.88; p &lt; 0.05): Harris and Benedict (2128.0 ± 245.8 kcal/day), Cunningham (1789.1 ± 167.8 kcal/day) and DRI (2011.1 ± 181.4 kcal/day). Pearson correlations showed a moderate positive correlation between the REE measured and predicted by all equations. Conclusion Our findings suggest that predictive equations for REE underestimate the energy expenditure in obese patients with sleep apnea. Also, no effects of OSA severity on REE were found.

title: Measurement of Tannic Substances in Forest Species

description: ABSTRACT This study aimed to quantify the tannic content of the barks and fruit of angico-vermelho, jurema-preta and acacia-negra using skin powder as detanizador agent. Materials from these species were ground and classified, with 12.5g of air dried particles subjected to extraction using a steam jacket type extractor to obtain 1000 ml of solution, using a completely randomized analytic design. The solution was evaluated using four treatments: angico bark; jurema bark; acacia bark and angico fruit. Three replicates per treatment were realized and subrepetitions were analyzed in triplicate. The results were interpreted by comparison of means with Tukey test at 5% significance. Best results in terms of total solids content, were observed in acacia bark (67.2%), differing statistically for angico bark (63.5%). The soluble solids content, in turn, was superior to angico bark (60.3%), differing statistically from acacia bark (49.8%). No statistically significant differences for tannin content were observed between acacia and angico barks, which presented values of 28.4 and 26.8%, respectively.

title: Feeding value of grass fertilized marandu or intercropped with peanut and carcass characteristics of beef cattle under rotational grazing

description: AbstractThe objective of this study was to evaluate the chemical composition of the pasture Brachiaria Brizantha intercropped with peanut or fertilized with N and carcass characteristics of beef cattle. The pasture was managed under rotational grazing with stocking continues, with variable stocking, using 16 Nellore bulls. In the evaluation of dry matter production total green significance was observed between treatments and periods evaluated, and treatment consortium presented a higher average. The variable crude protein showed significance between treatments and periods. The NDT and FDN had no significant effect on the evaluation of the grass. Periods had lower ADG were the 4th and 6th periods. For the PB, FDN and NDT legume 3rd period showed the lowest averages. For variables GMD, NAD, GPC showed statistical significance for the interaction, and the 1st treatment period consortium submitted the highest averages. In the treatment of the largest fertilizer stocking rates were achieved in stations where chemical fertilization occurred. Statistical significance was observed for the variable conformation carcass classification. The consortium forage peanut cv. Belmonte may be using to replace fertilization with 120kg / N / ha, as it ensures even weight gain per animal, without changing the commercial carcass traits.

title: Diameter Increment Modeling in an Araucaria Forest Fragment Using Cluster Analysis

description: ABSTRACT The aims of the present study were to test the hypothesis that data stratification by cluster analysis and the use of other variables, in addition to DBH, can improve the precision of the estimates in diametric increment modeling for Mixed Ombrophilous Forest species. The study was carried out in the Irati National Forest. Data from 25 permanent sample plots of 1 ha each were used with all individuals presenting DBH equal to or greater than 10 cm being identified and measured. The increment modeling was performed for the whole forest (non-stratified data), ecological groups and species subgroups (stratified data) defined by cluster analysis. DBH presented a low correlation with the diametric increment and the use of other independent variables had a positive effect on the fitting, reducing the standard error of estimate and increasing the coefficient of determination. The data stratification did not make the models suitable to estimate the diametric increment; however, it provided improvements by reducing the standard error of estimate, suggesting that this technique can be better applied in the search for improvements to diametric modeling in natural forests.
