Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Aplicação de sísmica de alta resolução em ambiente estuarino amazônico, na investigação de estruturas neotectônicas(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2015-02-27) CORRÊA, Alberto Jacques Ribeiro; PINHEIRO, Roberto Vizeu Lima; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3251836412904734; ROLLNIC, Marcelo; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6585442266149471Seismic methods of high resolutions have been intensely used on the mapping of the Quaternary, investigation of sedimentary processes, and others. The study area is located in the north region of the state of Pará, between the parallels 1° S and 2° S and the meridians 50.5° and 48.25°, the research being carried out in the submerged areas bordering the Marajó Island in its east and the southeast part, comprising the Bay of Marajó, the mouth of the Tocantins River and Pará River. The high resolution seismic employed in this region aims to tectonic investigation by using the data collected by the acoustic profiler SB-512I from Edgetech, and from these data to identify structural shapes, fractures, subsidence or elevations ruled by tectonism. From the analysis of the seismic data obtained in the study area, nine features were identified interpreted as tectonic occurrences. Due the specificities of equipment and geological characteristics of the region, possible areas of tectonic faults were not detected at great depths by the equipment used, however, they were found in areas where tectonic forces occurred with sufficient intensity to cause visible faults in the mapped pseudo-sections.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Características hidrodinâmicas da plataforma interna do nordeste paraense(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2014-08-28) ALVES, Alex Costa; BÉRGAMO, Alessandro Luvizon; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9711842025835463This study aims to characterize the hydrodynamics of the continental shelf near the northeast coast of Pará state of in adjacent points to the municipalities of Salinópolis and Marapanim. The choice of the period of data acquisition took into account the contribution of the Tocantins River, which has a higher discharge during the month of April and lower discharge during September. Data were collected at two anchored stations on September 11, 2013 and April 25, 2014, both of 25 hours duration. Each as obtained data were not only hydrodynamic (longitudinal component of current) and hydrographic data (temperature, salinity and density), it was possible to calculate the transport of mass and volume. The observations were performed using a couple of acoustic Doppler current profilers and salinity, temperature and pressure data recorders. The data processing included filtering by moving averages and interpolation to analyze the results in dimensionless depth. The hydrographic results revealed a possible influence of continental drainage during the acquisition period. The comparison between water currents and wind during the experiments showed that the influence of the wind was not relevant in the circulation. The transport calculations indicate a circulation predominantly influenced by tide and freshwater contributions.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Modelagem hidrodinâmica aplicada ao estuário amazônico: uma abordagem em malha flexível(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2014-08-19) BORBA, Thaís Angélica da Costa; ROLLNIC, Marcelo; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6585442266149471Amazonian Estuary is a very complex system due to its large number of water bodies; it also encompasses four of the 20 largest rivers of world. Several hydrodynamic models have been applied on this system, but its complexity on shape makes difficult the grid definition when curvilinear grid is used. This research aimed the implementation of hydrodynamic model on this, based in flexible mesh grid that is easier to define on this kind of systems than curvilinear grids, and analyze the hydrodynamic patterns within this estuary. The methodology is based on the use of D-Flow in which a flexible mesh can be defined. The model domain encompasses the low course of Amazon River, Tapajós River, Xingu River, Tocantins River, Guajará Bay, Marajó Bay, Breves Strait and Pará River as well as the flood plain area and the adjacent continental shelf. The model presents a quite good calibration values for tidal signal as well as discharge since the Pearson's correlation coefficient presented values bigger than 0.95 for both and rmse presented values smaller than 5% for the former and 15% for the latter. The model also performed well on representation of several scenarios that represented extreme conditions regarding tide and discharge sources of Amazonian Estuary and it showed expected patterns by comparison with in situ data.
