Water footprint analysis of temporary crops produced in São Carlos (SP), Brazil
Reis,Alan; Santos,Alessandra Campos dos; Anache,Jamil Alexandre Ayach; Mendiondo,Eduardo Mario; Wendland,Edson CezarABSTRACT This paper aims to evaluate the water footprint (WF) of temporary crops produced in the municipality of São Carlos, Brazil, between 2004 and 2017. The WF calculation was developed following the Water Footprint Network approach (WFN) and using CROPWAT model. The results were compared with the world averages and other studies that analyzed the same crops. We applied statistical tests to verify data behav...
Phosphorus and thermotolerant coliforms’ loads in Brazilian watersheds with lim...
Marques,Luis Otávio do Amaral; Taffarello,Denise; Calijuri,Maria do Carmo; Mendiondo,Eduardo Mario; Ferreira,Murilo de SouzaABSTRACT Integrated analyses of the qualitative and quantitative aspects of aquatic ecosystems play an important role in decision making, which is linked to water resources management and promotion of ecosystem services. However, the possible advantages of such integration are still hampered by basic aspects, such as high uncertainties due to the partial and non-synchronized monitoring of discharges and observe...
Performance of bioretention experimental devices: contrasting laboratory and fi...
Macedo,Marina Batalini de; Lago,César Ambrogi Ferreira do; Mendiondo,Eduardo Mario; Souza,Vladimir Caramori Borges deABSTRACT Studying the performance of LID devices on a laboratory scale has the advantage of flexible layouts, so that more factors can be tested. However, they do not always correspond to what happens on a real scale of application. This paper focuses on a comparative analysis between two bioretention experimental devices considering field and laboratory scales. Based on this comparison, our understanding can b...
Impact of soil moisture over Palmer Drought Severity Index and its future proje...
Rossato,Luciana; Marengo,José Antônio; Angelis,Carlos Frederico de; Pires,Luciana Bassi Marinho; Mendiondo,Eduardo MarioABSTRACT Soil moisture is a main factor for the study of drought impacts on vegetation. Drought is a regional phenomenon and affects the food security more than any other natural disaster. Currently, the monitoring of different types of drought is based on indexes that standardize in temporal and regional level allowing, thus, comparison of water conditions in different areas. Therefore, in order to assess the ...
Urbanização e Impactos no Ciclo Hidrológico na Bacia do Mineirinho
Benini,Rubens de Miranda; Mendiondo,Eduardo MarioEste trabalho teve como objetivo comparar cenários de ocupação urbana e seus efeitos no ciclo hidrológico da Bacia do Mineirinho. Buscou-se avaliar os riscos de enchentes causados pelo aumento das áreas de impermeabilização que tem ocorrido com a implantação do novo Campus da USP, São Carlos, SP. Foram estabelecidos quatro cenários de ocupação urbana: cenário pré-urbanização (1972); cenário 2000, cenário 2025 c...
Integração entre curvas de permanência de quantidade e qualidade da água como u...
Cunha,Davi Gasparini Fernandes; Calijuri,Maria do Carmo; Mendiondo,Eduardo MarioA garantia dos usos múltiplos da água, dos serviços ambientais e do equilíbrio ecológico depende de uma combinação adequada entre aspectos quantitativos e qualitativos dos rios. A presente pesquisa descreve aplicações de uma nova abordagem das curvas de permanência de vazões, que foram associadas a curvas de frequência acumulada de qualidade da água. Foram compilados dados de fósforo total (2005 a 2009) e vazão...
Calibration of QUAL2K model in Brazilian micro watershed: effects of the land u...
Bottino,Flávia; Ferraz,Ive Ciola; Mendiondo,Eduardo Mario; Calijuri,Maria do CarmoAIM: This study aimed to evaluate the water quality of Canha River micro watershed (Ribeira de Iguape Valley, São Paulo State, Brazil) and to calibrate the QUAL2K model with field data; METHODS: Five variables of water quality were analyzed (water temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, electric conductivity and turbidity), as well as flow and velocity, in eight sampling stations from September, 2006 to July, 2007. ...
Hydrologic pulses and remaining natural vegetation in Jaú and Jacaré-Pepira wat...
Rezende,Jozrael Henriques; Pires,José Salatiel Rodrigues; Mendiondo,Eduardo MarioThe aim of this work was to study the influence of natural vegetation in two subwatersheds of the Tietê-Jacaré Water Resources Management Unit in São Paulo State on the pulse of their rivers. In Jacaré-Pepira Subwatershed, having higher remaining cover index, pulses were more predictable and had lower amplitude in the study period, indicating less perturbation of the water body and higher resilience of the aqua...
