title: Commuting in the macrometropolis of São Paulo: differentiation and socio-spatial complementariness

description: The main objective of this article is to make a diagnosis of the trends and characteristics of commuting in the so-called Macrometrópole Paulista (Macrometropolis of São Paulo), using the information available in the 2000 and 2010 Censuses. The knowledge of the current situation and of the evolution of this phenomenon may greatly contribute to the evaluation of the process of socio-spatial interaction and complementariness that develops among urban centers, where the new forms of location both of economic activity and of the population in general are already clear. The study of this phenomenon, therefore, contributes to diagnose the process of structuring of these spaces and, above all, to mitigate deficiencies in housing, transport, health and education policies, among others.

title: The interrelationship between scenography and ethos: Carmen - les racines d'un mythe, by Maingueneau

description: Abstract: This paper aims at discussing the concept of ethos from a singular perspective, considering it as a device built in solidarity with scenography. Based on global semantics, understood as a theoretical horizon outlined by Dominique Maingueneau (1984; 2008), we focus this debate on Carmen – les racines d'un mythe, a work not yet translated into Portuguese, written at the same time of Genèses du discours. What we intend, by bringing both works together, is to explain the theoretical framework created in Genèses, especially scenography and ethos, as articulating elements for the author's reading of Carmen.

title: Forest Cover in Landscapes of the Middle Valley of Paraiba River

description: ABSTRACT The continuous replacement of forest covers for crops and urban areas changed most of the Atlantic Forest biome in Brazil. Hence, understanding the interaction between the forest cover, physical and anthropic factors in a landscape is essential in order to provide subsidies for sustainable land use. The present study aimed at investigating the influence of the altitude, declivity, and slope orientation on the forest cover of three landscapes in the municipality of Vassouras. In general, Vassouras showed fragmented forest covers, but we observed a landscape covered more by forests than pastures. Among the variables analyzed, altitude and declivity showed a positive relationship with forest cover. The analyzed landscapes were inserted in different socio-economical contexts, which can also affect the current forest cover distribution. The socio-environmental attributes of those landscapes are specific and their understanding can be strategic for environmental planning.

title: Characteristics of health management courses in Brazil

description: ABSTRACT This article's objective was to discuss the characteristics of health management training offered in Brazil, from its historical origin and the supply of courses. The study involved mapping the country's health management courses at different levels of training, identified on institutional sites. The courses display a wide diversity in their nomenclature and other aspects. Facing the challenge of managing the Unified Health System (SUS) relates to the initiatives for training its administrators. The focus on the hospital area in undergraduate training and in specialization courses, predominantly in the private sector, may be a limitation for the intended model of care in the SUS.

title: Assessment of the potentiometric drawdown in the Guarani Aquifer System in Bauru/SP by a model of analytical elements

description: ABSTRACT The recent drought events and the population growth in São Paulo State (Brazil) have caused many municipalities to increase the groundwater exploitation of the Guarani Aquifer System (GAS) for the public water supply. In Bauru City/SP, the extraction of water from this Aquifer is expected to increase from 3699 m3/h (2014) to 4465 m3/h (2034). However, its long-term overexploitation may compromise the amount of available groundwater. The Analytic Element Method was used for groundwater flow modeling at steady-state, which includes the regional flow, the water withdrawal from wells and the main local geological conditions. The hydraulic gradient 0.82 m/km was estimated in the GAS in Bauru City. The potentiometric drawdown in the GAS in Bauru was estimated as 50 m since the beginning of the groundwater exploitation. The drawdown for the groundwater pumping scenario in 2014 is higher than 15 m in Piratininga and Agudos and lower than 10 m in further cities. The expected drawdown for the scenario of 2034 can reach 15 m in comparison with the scenario of 2014, in the North of Bauru City, where the future wells will be located.

title: Integrating climate models into hydrological modelling: What’s going on in Brazil?

description: ABSTRACT Studies integrating climate modelling output into hydrological modelling have grown substantially in the last two decades worldwide; however, there has not been a systematic review about those applications in the Brazilian territory. The aim of this study is to identify how the scientific community has been dealing with the topic in Brazil. The study is based on a systematic review of available peer-reviewed literature. We identify regions and socioeconomic sectors of interest and propose a method to evaluate the methodological consistency of the studies with the current state-of-the-art. The review shows that the topic has grown substantially in this decade, reaching 63 documents until 2018. The sectors under highest concern are the hydropower and the drinking water supply. The Paraná and Atlântico Nordeste Oriental hydrographic regions received great attention; whereas the Atlântico Sudeste did not. In terms of methodology, the use of multi-model ensemble leaves room for improvement. The results suggest a lack of human resources and access to computational infrastructure to handle climate data. Given the current challenges that Brazilian science is facing, we suggest the synchronization of efforts among research institutions. This systematic review provides information to help guiding decision makers to improve the topic in Brazil.

title: Interference of blood storage containing K2EDTA and K3EDTA anticoagulants in the automated analysis of the hemogram

description: ABSTRACT Introduction: The present work evaluated the possible alterations in different hemogram parameters as: total erythrocyte count, hematocrit, leukocyte, and platelet count, against different times of sample storage at refrigerated and room temperature towards the effects of anticoagulants that can affect the variation of laboratory results. Objective: Compare variations in automated hemogram analysis, with blood collected in tubes containing dipotassium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (K2EDTA) and tripotassium ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (K3EDTA). Material and methods: A comparative study was carried out on differential leukocyte count and absolute leukocyte count, hemoglobin determination and red blood cell count and platelet count. Therefore, it researches the anticoagulant that brings less interferences in hemogram analysis according to storage, at temperatures from 2°C to 8°C and 25°C (room temperature), and the time window between collection and analysis (4, 6, and 8 hours). These determinations were carried out after homogenization from five to eight inversions using the automated device Sysmex XN-1000TM. Eighteen biological samples of venous blood were collected, used as control, from patients aged 18 and over that did not have any hematologic disease. Results: The results were evaluated through descriptive statistical analysis, and comparison of mean values through the analysis of variance (Anova). In accordance with the results presented, there were not changes in the parameters by refrigerating the sample in the period of 8 hours, except for the platelet count, presenting oscillations when stored under refrigeration from 2°C to 8°C. Conclusion: At room temperature, the parameters mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), and hematocrit presented significant statistical differences.

title: DISCOVERY LEARNING IN THE LANGUAGE-FOR-TRANSLATION CLASSROOM: CORPORA AS LEARNING AIDS

description: Abstract This contribution reviews the idea of discovery learning with corpora, proposed in the 1990s, evaluating its potential and its implications with reference to the education of translators today. The rationale behind this approach to data-driven learning, combining project-based and form-focused instruction within a socio-constructivistically inspired environment, is discussed. Examples are also provided of authentic, openended learning experiences, thanks to which students of translation share responsibility over the development of corpora and their consultation, and teachers can abandon the challenging role of omniscient knowledge providers and wear the more honest hat of “learning experts”. Adding to the more straightforward uses of corpora in courses that aim to develop thematic, technological and information mining competences – i.e., in which training is offered in the use of corpora as professional aids –, attention is focused on foreign language teaching for translators and on corpora as learning aids, highlighting their potential for the development of the three other European Master’s in Translation (EMT) competences (translation service provision, language and intercultural ones).

title: FIRE EFFECTS ON SOIL AND VEGETATION IN A DEGRADED BRAZILIAN SAVANNA

description: ABSTRACT This research consists of a comparative study through the controlled application of fire under different conditions of natural and exotic phytophysiognomy of the Cerrado vegetation area. The area of study is located in Cerrado recovery vegetation and degraded pasture areas. On this area, five experimental plots were established from the specific characteristic of its vegetation cover, slope and soil type (treatments) and connected to a Gerlach trough that accumulates the runoff and were weekly measured. Two artificial fires were applied to plots in an interval of 8 months in attempt to understand the effects of fire on runoff, sediment yield and regrowth of vegetation. The results show that runoff do not present differences between treatments through the period of study. Medium values of sediment yield for all plots vary from 6.70 g L-1 to 57.24 g L-1 showing that the plots which present high protection by vegetation create conditions to diminish the impact of precipitation on the surface.

title: Hybrid gravitational microfiltration system for drinking water purification

description: Abstract This study evaluates the application of a polymeric microfiltration membrane in a gravitational filtration module and its combination with granular activated carbon (GAC) impregnated with copper, resulting in a hybrid process. The proposed system would be used to improve the quality of water for human consumption in developing countries. Permeate flux, pH, Escherichia coli removal, color, turbidity and free chlorine removals were evaluated in the applied process. Instrumental techniques, such as N2 adsorption at 77 K, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) analyses were used to characterize the proposed membrane and adsorbent. The GAC ensured higher chlorine removals, as well as higher permeate flux. Furthermore, the GAC impregnated with copper oxide nanoparticles exhibited higher Escherichia coli removal. Therefore, the hybrid gravitational membrane system applying GAC impregnated with copper oxide could be considered as a potential alternative point-of-use treatment to improve the quality of water for human consumption.
