Information on how atrazine can affect the spatial distribution of organisms is non-existent. As this effect has been observed for some other contaminants, we hypothesized that atrazine-containing leachates/discharges could trigger avoidance by fish Poecilia reticulata and form a chemical barrier isolating upstream downstream populations. Firstly, guppies were exposed to an gradient in non-forced exposure system, which moved freely among concentrations, assess their ability avoid atrazine....
Triclosan (TCS) is an emerging contaminant of concern in environmental studies due to its potential adverse effects on fish behavior. Since avoidance has been shown be a relevant behavioral endpoint, our aims were: (i) determine if TCS able trigger response Poecilia reticulata; (ii) predict the population immediate decline (PID) caused by exposure, integrating lethality and responses; (iii) verify overestimation risk when mortality assessed under forced exposure. Fish were exposed exposure...
Os sedimentos têm grande importância na avaliação da contaminação epoluição dos ecossistemas aquáticos. Para avaliar a qualidade sedimentosda represa Guarapiranga aplicaram-se diferentes linhas de evidência:1) Valores-Guia Qualidade do Sedimento (VGQS) baseados teoriado Equilíbrio e Partição; 2) VGQS empíricos (TEL-Threshold Effect Level;PEL-Probable Level); 3) Valores Referência Regionais (VRR) e4) testes ecotoxicológicos (agudo/crônico) em água sedimento. A relaçãoΣ([MES]–[SVA])/fCOT (MES:...
RESUMO O objetivo deste estudo consiste na avaliação da eficácia do uso de um índice estado trófico (IET) como ferramenta análise qualidade das águas três reservatórios. IET foi calculado baseado transparência reservatório e nas concentrações clorofila-a fósforo total (P total). Para identificar a correlação solo com poluição aquática represas, o para cada represa comparado ao mapeamento temático cobertura base em imagens satélite Landsat TM 5 ano 2010.

Rivers in the Amazon have among greatest biodiversity world. The Xingu River, one of tributaries has a length 1640 km, draining 510,000 km2 most protected regions on planet. Middle region Brazil been highly impacted by mining and livestock farming, leading to habitat fragmentation due altered water quality. Therefore, comparing two rivers (the preserved River Fresco River) their confluence, aims present study were (1) assess land uses hydrographic basin; (2) determine quality measurements...
Purification of cellulose is one the most important steps in production nitrocellulose for explosives.However, it generates highly polluting wastewater.In this study, industry wastewater (leachate) was characterized and treated chemically biologically.Untreated leachate had a pH 12.4 ± 0.5, color 27,065 879 units, chemical oxygen demand (COD) 7,615 252 mg/L, biological (BOD) 4,413 194 total organic carbon (TOC) content 2,455 158 solids 8,613 232 fixed 3,845 103 volatile 4,768 129 mg/L toxic...
