(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2011-11-24) RIBEIRO, Jocilete de Almeida; ROCHA, Gilberto de Miranda; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2436176783315749
This dissertation consists in a case study of the creation, implementation and management of the Environmental Protection Area of the Island of Combu (Combu EPA) located in the city of Belem in Para state, temporally bounded from the act of its creation in 1997 to the current period, 2010. As main objectives it was intended to analyze and reflect on the key challenges and possibilities for environmental management of the Environmental Protection Area of the Island of Combu, identifying the main changes in the Island of Combu after the process of creation of the EPA, and to identify existing problems the EPA Island Combu. The problems we intend to answer are: What are the major challenges and possibilities for environmental management in the EPA Island Combu in the current context? How was the process of creation of the EPA Island Combu in the point of view of managing agency and the local leaders? What have the creation of the EPA meant for the population of the Island of Combu from the perspective of local leaders? The research is qualitative and interdisciplinary since it approaches the problem from the point of view of several disciplines seeking a holistic view. For its implementation was conducted a literature review, consultation and analysis of documentary sources, field trips, trails on the island, simple observation in meetings and workshops and interviews with local leaders of the EPA, managers and technicians of the environmental agency. We make use of cartography as a methodological resource to understand the dynamics of that territory and to make a georeference of the current configuration of the EPA by GPS. The main conclusions point to the weakness of management in protected areas. The challenges refer to aspects related to the demands, the cultural aspect, the managing agency and counsel and an attentive vision. The possibilities are found in the maintenance of a well preserved forest, the existence of a significant institutional arrangement and leaders committed to the place. The creation of the EPA was not started by the local population and there was not an understanding by all about its creation. The creation of the EPA did not have much meaning to people’s daily activities, because no change was perceived since its creation. However, it points out that from two years now it is already noticed some slight tentative by the agency in charge, even with great expectation in the building of EPA head office on the island.

Educação ambiental e gestão de unidades de conservação: um estudo de caso na Área de Proteção Ambiental Algodoal-Maiandeua
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2013-12-13) VILHENA, Klycia de Souza; SILVA, Marilena Loureiro da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7261982145077537
It examines how the practices of environmental education has contributed to the strengthening and consolidation of the management of protected areas, from the speech of the local community. It was adopted Algodoal-Maiandeua Environmental Protection Area (APA) as the locus of research. Hundred households were interviewed in the four communities of APA Algodoal-Maiandeua: Algodoal Village, Fortalezinha Village, Camboinha Village and Mocoóca Village. It was found that environmental education has contributed little to the consolidation of the environmental management of the protected area for the following reasons: low frequency of actions, lack of continuity of actions, not involving the local community in planning and implementation of actions, resulting in action that does not include issues considered important by the local community, lack of management in conservation area, environmental education focused on visitors, restricted to periods called “high season” actions – July, New Year and holidays – where an increase occurs in flow of visitation on the island of Algodoal-Maiandeua. It was noted that the low degree of effectiveness of actions implemented environmental education contributes to the UC not fully play its role as a conservation unit, being necessary to the broad restructuring of management, so that it can be implemented as provided in the National System of Units Conservation.

Gestão de reservas florestais: reflexões a partir da floresta estadual do Antimary (AC)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2012-08-20) PINTO, Michele de Azevedo; VASCONCELLOS SOBRINHO, Mário; http://lattes.cnpq.br/7843288526039148
The research aim was to analyse the main difficulties and advances within the process of a forest reserve direct management from the case study of Antimary Forest Reserve in Acre. The research examined the factors that contributed to forest management, natural resources conservation and local community development within the conservation unit. The Acre State was a pioneer in establishing a forest policy in Amazonia focussed to promote sustainable development based on the standing forest value. As a form to support this policy the State carried out the State Public Forest Program in order to manage the state forests. This Program has the premise of ensuring natural resources conservation together with the regional and community development. The research theoretical framework was based on the literature of conservation unit, forest management and the influence of the social movement on the sustainable development program in Acre. This framework was used to rebuild the geopolitical context and to understand the processes and results of the unit management.Methodologically, the research was based on qualitative analysis and historical-descriptive method for data assessment. For data collection it was used semi-structured interviews, documentary analysis and geoprocessing tools. The research shows that the direct management of the Antimary State Forest that has been carrying out with external support has failed in ensuring an efficient management of the unit. This fail has happen in spite of the state forest policy advances, the guidelines established in the State Public Forest Program, management tools, management unit plan, advisor council and the positive results emerged to the local communities.

Risco de desastres por incêndios florestais: um mapeamento do município de Moju (PA)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2018-02-27) ALMEIDA, Tarsis Esaú Gomes; BASTOS, Rodolpho Zahluth; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0697476638482653; FLORES, Maria do Socorro Almeida; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8875436559577793
The objective of the research was to identify areas where there is a greater risk of forest fire disaster in Moju municipality of Pará. The evidence that the use of fire in its territory, the consequences of which may have a significant negative impact on the municipality's cattle ranching, are the support for the choice of location. In this sense, through bibliographic research, documentary, interviews and analyzes, three main maps were constructed. The first was the Forest Fire Hazard Map, in which it was verified which areas would be most likely to suffer from forest fires. The second was the Socioeconomic Assessment Map, whose purpose was to measure the possible demographic, social, cultural, and economic impacts resulting from forest fires in the municipality. The last one was the Forest Fire Disaster Risk Map, which is the product of an algebra of the first two maps. Thus, in the actions of environmental risk management for the municipality, the mapping done will help in the decision making by the managers. Also, the way the mapping was done provides the basis for the formation of a manual that can be used by the Pará Military Fire Brigade in other municipalities.

Vulnerabilidade de agricultores familiares da cadeia de produção de biodiesel de dendê à extremos de precipitação na comunidade Águas Pretas, Moju (PA)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2012-09-14) BARRETO, Adriana Gisely Tavares; SZLAFSZTEIN, Claudio Fabian; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1348005678649555
The climate extremes have a negative impact in the Brazilian agribusiness and threaten the development of the rural communities that are mainly of the natural resources. That’s why it’s necessary to study the productive chain of oil palm (Elais guineensis Jacq.) based on future climatic risks, because the state of Pará is the largest domestical producer of oil plam and the structured chain with the integration of the family agriculture to the agricultural chain. The objective of this research was to analyze the vulnerabilities of family farmers of the “Aguas Pretas” community in the city of Moju, state of Pará, inserted in the production chain of biodiesel of oil palm, facing the precipitation extremes. The research was made in two steps: the first analyzed the climatic extremes of the precipitation series from 1981 to 2009 applying the descriptive method and the quantis, and the second step analyzed the vulnerability of the farmers through the variable/indicators of socioeconomic disadvantage, technological and of perception, that represented a vulnerable situation. To identify farmers’ vulnerability, the factorial analyses for main components was used, the index elaboration of climatic vulnerability and the group analyses, where 22 farmers were placed in five categories of predefined classification. The results have shown that the occurrence of very dry extremes and very rainy in the data series in the years of 1981 to 2009 in the city of Moju (PA). The identified climatic risk in the city represents a great threat to oil palm production, because the extreme impacts of precipitation over the plant are not only development stages but also the partial and total reduction of oil palm bunches. Those impacts in long term, directly affects the family farmers that are dependants of the exclusive selling of palm oil bunches to the industry, as well as it compromises the inclusion objectives of social inclusion and renewable energy production of the biodiesel Program. The family farmers from “Águas Pretas” community in the production chain of palm oil biodiesel reacted in different ways, considering the socioeconomic factors, technological and of perception factors, being distributed in five different categories of vulnerability (high, middle high, middle low and low). The groups of vulnerability of higher interest in the research were of high and low vulnerability, corresponding to 14% (3 farmers) and 18% (farmers), respectively, of the total interviewed farmers. The group of high vulnerability was characterized by farmers that used with low efficiency the highest part of the variables of disadvantages, indicating difficulties to compete and adapt, in case of climate extremes. The group of low vulnerability was characterized by farmers that uses with efficiency all the macro variables studied, showing socioeconomics advantages, technological and of perception. This group appeared to be more adapted in case of climate extremes, in the biodiesel chain, with the possibility to be a parameter to strategies elaboration of local adaptation. The risk perception and the raised factors have appeared to be a strong resource to analyze the vulnerability situation of local farmers. The farmer perception is oriented based on his convictions and daily experiences, being of great importance to the adaptable strategies elaboration to face climate extremes.
