(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2023-09-29) FERREIRA, Lorrana Dias; SILVA, Adriano Frutuoso da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3321059172343690; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-1710-8862
Due to tragic accidents related to the failure of tailings dams in Minas Gerais, the disposal of tailings in dams has become an increasingly urgent topic of discussion, especially in relation to the risks associated with this approach. Consequently, mining companies have sought to implement alternative methods for managing tailings resulting from their operations. However, in this direction, the work analyzes the level of the environmental impact in the area of influence of tailings dams in the municipality of Poconé – MT, identifying the major damages that can be caused by a tailings dam rupture. To this end, maps of environmental impacts on the selected dams were created, using the software QGIS, also known as Quantum GIS. The Kernel method was also used, which is an analytical approach that is frequently applied in the assessment of risks and environmental sensitivity in relation to mining tailings dams. The results of the research revealed that throughout the work it was possible to observe that the mining tailings dams existing in the municipal limit of Poconé/MT are defined as structures that promote a “very high” environmental impact, mainly in the urban area than if it occurs the rupture could affect legal preservation areas and the city's drainage system, thus impacting the life of the community in general. With the data obtained, it was possible to analyze the environmental impact of tailings dams on local communities, including the possible relocation of families, access to drinking water and the health of people living nearby. Therefore, the analysis of the environmental impact in the area of influence of tailings dams in Poconé, Mato Grosso, is a crucial part of the responsible management process of mining activities, as it can help develop strategies to mitigate these impacts and ensure the protection of the environment.

Cidade, desenho e natureza: uma reflexão sobre os espaços livres de Marabá
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2015-05-13) PONTES, Louise Barbalho; CARDOSO, Ana Cláudia Duarte; http://lattes.cnpq.br/3138101153535395
The present work seeks to investigate the relationship between urbanization and the physical support through the features of Maraba's open spaces system (city located at Para's southeast, in the amazon context, presents itself in economic border situation, is object of urban experimentation and disconnected urban fabric filled with open spaces). To accomplish that, it’s needed to unravel the dichotomist view of city and nature through three analysis scale (global, national and local) unveiling conceptual placement socially created in rich countries that would suit as a background for the urban space production all over the world. The timelines developed from this conceptual deconstruction show that while in rich countries the ecological reconstruction and the quality of urban life is already pursed, in the economic border city, the economic rationality megalomania overlaps everyone and everything, leaving as a result great environmental end social tensions. However, the study invites to the reflection towards to new potentials for urban solutions in these spaces, precisely because of the non-occurrence of the complete territorial en social conversion, on the premise that the processes of urbanization of these cities happen in a single space-time, that has as privilege, the possibility of learn from the secular outline of world urban experiences and also from the traditional local knowledge that knew how to combine along time city and nature. From the science point of view the attention regarding the contemporary city form and the lenses capable of reveling the city materiality and its potential: the urban design and the landscape approach, as the starting point to elaborate a guide for empirical analysis formed by city apprehension instruments (scale, layers, borders and processes), tools for elaborate it (cartography, field investigation, people counting and interviews) and spatial quality parameters (diversity, attractiveness, comfort, access, security and identity). This way, Maraba's open spaces system is presented in a intermedium scale perspective (territorial, urban and district scale) and in objective and subjective layers (biophysical, urban and world's point of view) that reveals, besides its complexity, three degradation and fading processes (of the yard, of the public spaces and of preservation areas) and a great potential to reverse the loss – for there is a potential of an open space system structure - that unites possibilities to gather urban, environmental and cultural demands, and if thought as a coherent design could contribute to reestablish connections between urban cores that form the city with the biome and contribute to the fortification of local identity.

A colonialidade nas políticas ambientais do governo Bolsonaro e a inversão dos órgãos de defesa do meio ambiente
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2021-06) MISSIATTO, Leandro Aparecido Fonseca; SILVA, Leila Gracieli da; CARVALHO, Fábio Rodrigues; DENES, Daylan Maykiele; MISSIATTO, Héverton Magno
Brazil has been highlighted in the ranking of deforestation, fires, extraction of natural resources, animal trafficking and conflicts against native peoples. The governmental actions in force in the country show that the dismantling of environmental policies is based on coloniality with the old guise of progress at any cost, including a socio-environmental collapse. Thus, institutions that, in theory, should act to protect the environment, act without any kind of modesty in institutional production in an offensive to the environment. The present essay discusses what has been happening in the Brazilian institutional scenario, and what are the possible paths through the decolonialist and Bem Viver perspective.

(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2024-03-27) PEREIRA, Milton Nazareno Monteiro; SILVA, Cléber Silva e
The changing eating patterns of societies have increased the consumption of fried foods, which is directly associated with the onset of various diseases. Vegetable oils resulting from these preparations are a potential environmental pollutant when discarded inappropriately. The purpose of this study is to research the consumption and disposal of edible vegetable oils by third-year high school students in Chemistry classes, by proposing the development and application of a Didactic Sequence (DS) using active methodologies, in order to promote teaching of Environmental Sciences and provide the target audience with the opportunity to change their behavior regarding consumption and disposal of these compounds. The applied methodology was a quantitative-qualitative approach, using action research to obtain data using observation techniques, questionnaires, conversation circles, semi-structured interviews and bibliographic/document analysis. This research was carried out at the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Pará - IFPA/Campus Belém with 2 classes from Chemistry and Systems Development courses, totaling 46 students. After applying the DS, which obtained the highest content validation index, it was found that 54.2% of Chemistry students and 18.2% of Systems Development students researched had reduced their consumption of fried food and 66.7% and 45.5%, respectively, of these students began to dispose of waste oil properly. The education product was made available in the form of a Didactic Sequence Guidance Manual to aid the teaching-learning process in Environmental Sciences.

This work was developed with students of 4th year of basic education school Monsignor Azevedo , where these are from the island of Combu. It is specifically didactic interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary character practices, whose claim was to rescue the local culture through tales of oral tradition as well as mobilizing reflexive attitudes about environmental context relating one of the most prominent problems in the medium environment that is lack of water in certain locations. The proposal led us to find several theoretical studies as it relates to the primitive people lived before the Portuguese colonization, amid their beliefs, myths and stories told as well, in studies related to the environment and water resources. It should be noted immersion in field with conversations wheels with the parents of the students to understand the oral narratives that children bring about their local culture in the activities. So the proposal has enabled us to understand that traditional knowledge empower the process of scientific literacy in the various areas of knowledge.

This dissertation on teacher training aims to understand the terms in which learning to teach occurs through the exchange of experiences when the triad Teacher-Trainee is established in a chemistry teacher training environment, with a view to general and specific training aspects for teaching chemistry in Basic Education. Using Discourse Textual Analysis (DTA) and Narrative Research, we sought to answer the following research question: in what terms does learning to teach occur through the exchange of experiences between Teacher TrainerTeacher-Trainee established in a chemistry teacher training environment? The DTA resulted in the analysis category new paths - me, you, him in us, which indicates the learning that emerges in the training context analyzed and which contributes to the development of the training proposal that makes up the Educational Product. The research subjects were chosen intentionally according to the following criteria: i) to agree to take part in the research; ii) to have participated in the same training context and environment; iii) and to be working as chemistry teachers. There are two (2) undergraduates, two (2) high school chemistry teachers (one of them the author herself) and two (2) teacher trainers who work on a degree course. As for the investigative instruments, we chose the embroidery diaries and CAPES reports written by the undergraduates, the researcher's training memorial and semi-structured interviews with the research subjects. The results show that the training environment established is capable of providing chemistry teachers, in any training context, with permanent teaching learning. In addition, this environment promotes the exchange of teaching experiences and knowledge, as well as favoring closer space and time between school and university. It is possible to infer that the participants developed pedagogical knowledge of the specific chemistry content and reflective attitudes about themselves and chemistry teaching, individually and collectively. This research generated the Educational Product entitled “Teaching Workshop: proposal for ambience in the training of chemistry teachers”. The purpose of this product is to propose a model for training chemistry teachers through the exchange of experience between Teacher Trainer-Teacher-Licensed Student in an environment that encourages reflective, permanent and collaborative training.

(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2006) SOUZA, Ana Paula Santos; VEIGA JUNIOR, Iran Pereira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/9513562131313692
The Transamazônica is a region of agricultural frontier planned by the military governments, with a finality to connect The Amazônia to the rest of the country. With the abandon of the colonization project, the migrants reacted and with the help of Catholic Church created on important social movement. The discourse of a sustainable development, diffused by ECO92 to Transamazônica in 1989, with the meeting of Xingu Indian people, in protest against the construction of Belo Monte Hydroelectric power station. The focus of this study is the discourse. It treats an historic-social analyze of oral and writing discourse of agricultors and the Catholic Church, on the development and the environment, identifying limits and the possibilities, as the provoked changes by its in the politic social and environmental scenery of the region. It used the method of the analyze of discourse since the category of interdiscoursevity, denominated bay Fairclough (2001) as the combination of several elements of order of discourse in a same discourse. The objective of this category is to specify the types of discourse that they are present in analyzed discourse sample. The areas of the study is situated in the west of Pará, more exactly in the localized municipalities a long of BR – 230, of Uruará until Pacaja, in the BR-163, of Placas until Itaituba and in the middle Xingu including the municipalities of Vitória do Xingu, Senador José Porfirio e Porto de Moz. This region is also the priority area of actuation of Prelazia of Xingu and the leaded social movement by agricultors. Four subjects were selected to the analyze: the demarcation of the Cachoeira Seca Indian Land, Especial FNO, the Belo Monte construction and the Proambiente program. The results chose that the international social environmental influenced the agricultors social movement of Transamazônica and Xingu. Though, the creation of the resex, parks, well as debates about the environmental impacts of Belo Monte, a expansion of the soybean and other initiatives also showed that the diversified familiar agriculture, with access to the public politics, getting their production benefited and commercialized, it’s the model of aspired development by these actors. The Proambiente is an example of this.

(Centro Universitário Augusto Motta, 2019-06) AIRES, Alana Paula de Araújo; CARVALHO, André Cutrim; NUNES, Silvia Ferreira; RAVENA, Nírvea
The research aims to carry out a preliminary analysis on the socio-environmental and economic transformations that occurred in the municipality of Óbidos, in the State of Pará. Since natural resources are of great importance and their use requires planning and use of local public policies at the moment of managing these resources and use them in the best way, both to generate income for the population that resides in the region, and to preserve them. However, in recent years inadequate planning for extraction of these resources has not been carried out successfully and with due parsimony with the environment. This ends up generating a very high commitment of the natural resources with drastic consequences for the environment and for the development of the State. On the other hand, the economic and disorderly growth in border regions as the study municipality, continues being the main causes of deforestation. The objective of this article is to identify the deforestation process, as well as the link with deforestation and the importance of the institutions in the region of Pará and the municipality of Óbidos. The research will discuss the local public policies used to combat deforestation in the region, considering the needs and the preposition of alternatives capable of offering improvements in the current population of that region.

Efficient solid waste management is crucial for keeping the city clean and sustainable. This work presents a methodology that uses well-established algorithms for volume estimation in urban solid waste management from single-view images. The proposed system is based on state-of-the-art computer vision concepts and models, including instance segmentation, depth estimation, and volume calculation based on point clouds. The methodology demonstrated the ability to accurately estimate the volume of both individual and multiple solid waste objects in images. We evaluated our approach using real-world data. Despite challenges such as manual rescaling of distances and limited datasets, our system shows considerable potential for refinement and improvement, targeting complex scenarios like real urban environments. Numerical results indicated that the proposed system is promising even in complex scenarios, with mean absolute percentage errors (MAPE) of 8.60% for single waste and 9.23% for multiple wastes, resulting in an overall average of 8.91%. The coefficient of determination was 95.11% for single instances and 87.64% for multiple instances. The proposed methodology significantly contributes to the advancement of management technologies in smart cities.

With the development of industrial society, the demand for raw material has been increasing steadily over the last decades. Linked to this development occurs the generation of residues, which in the case of copper approximately 1% of the soil is exploited and transformed into commercial copper, the other 99% become waste of the process, being deposited in containment basins, where it is estimated 90 million tons the quantity contained in the Canaa dos Carajas plant, from where the residue of this work was obtained. This leads to high construction and maintenance costs, as well as generating a hazardous environmental liability. The objective of this work was to evaluate the addition of copper mining residue in replacement of the small aggregate in CA. In the dosage design it was verified that the content of 10% of residue in substitution to the small aggregate, more precisely 7.73% (obtained by regression), as the proportion that best suited the Marshall properties, even with lower CAP content In relation to the others, fact this provided by the type of fines of the residue. In general, the measured mechanical properties were not altered by the presence of the residue, except for the fatigue data, where the 20% and 25% mixtures showed superior performance, mainly because the resilience modulus values were statistically the same. The rheological data, compared to Superpav classification, were also unchanged, as well as the coating thickness given in the simulation in the SisPav, being in the order of 5 cm. In analyzing the potential for the use of waste, a positive conclusion was reached regarding the technological, environmental and economic aspects, with the possibility of consumption of more than 1.500.000 tons in roads close to the project, besides the economy with CAP consumption and Portland cement for trace correction.

Inter-relações entre variáveis ambientais e doenças de veiculação hídrica no Município de Belém-Pa
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2022-11-09) VARELA, Andrew Wallace Palheta; PESSOA, Francisco Carlos Lira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8031687016215046
The theme related to health and the environment is gaining more and more prominence in the scientific environment, since man is sensitive to the constant changes in the environment that surrounds him. The spatial and temporal variations of climatic elements, as well as the worsening of socio-environmental problems, provide specific environmental conditions and, consequently, can favor the emergence of diseases related to water transmission, such as leptospirosis and dengue, especially in regions with peculiar climatic characteristics and serious problems of environmental and social nature, for example, the city of Belém-PA. Thus, the objective of this work is to correlate environmental variables with the occurrence of waterborne diseases, in the 21st century (2001 to 2019), in the municipality of Belém, state of Pará, as well as to identify possible associations of health problems arising from the basic sanitation conditions of the locality. For this, a survey was carried out of the number of monthly cases of leptospirosis and dengue, through the Information System of Notifiable Diseases (SINAN) and Municipal Health Department (SESMA), as well as the variables precipitation, temperature and relative humidity, through the National Institute of Meteorology (INMET) and, subsequently, the following methodologies are applied: descriptive statistics, Spearman's correlation coefficient (ρ), Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Multiple Regression Analysis, spatialization by IDW interpolation and the assessment of basic sanitation conditions. The results show a similar monthly behavior of the variables: precipitation, relative humidity and minimum temperature; and dengue and leptospirosis; with a greater number of cases in the rainy season in the region. Furthermore, with the exception of the minimum temperature, there was a correlation between the environmental variables and the diseases studied in this work. It was also observed the precariousness of sanitation conditions experienced by residents of some neighborhoods in Belém, which facilitates the proliferation of transmitting vectors. In this sense, it is inferred that seasonality may indicate a possible contribution to the rates of the mentioned diseases, especially in the rainy season, leading to an increase in the number of cases, however, for the municipality of Belém, this factor is not limited to the variable variable, but to a series of environmental and climatic conditions relating to the period in question. Furthermore, it is estimated that this study will serve as a reference for other research, as well as contribute to the development of solutions that minimize the problem.

This research is the result of a feeling that emerged from the professional experience of teachers, that is, from the need to transform the practice. It presents as main objective to investigate the contributions of the development of an Interdisciplinary Island of Rationality in the CTSA approach, from the Environment and Electronic Junk topic, for the promotion of scientific, technological and citizen literacy of elementary school students. For that, the methodological strategy of the Interdisciplinary Island of Rationality (IIR) proposed by Gérard Fourez (1997) was elaborated and applied, in a ninth grade class, in a state primary and secondary school in the municipality of Abaetetuba / PA, in the year of 2017. This research is qualitative, of the participant type. The research environment consisted of a mini-course, in which 26 students participated as subjects of the research, in addition to the teacherresearcher. The data were collected through the application of a semistructured questionnaire, with the objective of identifying the students' previous knowledge about the subject, electronic waste; records in the field diary of the subjects investigated and the teacher-researcher; audiovisual records; and elaboration of posters, banner and drawings by the students, which constituted the empirical material of this research. For the treatment of this material, I used Creswell's interpretive analysis (2010), from which emerged two categories: students' "looks" about electronic junk: from prior knowledge to the construction of scientific knowledge and the re-signification of teaching practice author of this study) in Science Teaching. The results show that the students' previous knowledge is in line with the elaboration and opening of the black boxes that composed the project, in a way that met their wishes and curiosities, and gave them the opportunity to construct a "look" that carries important understandings for the decision-making and for the acquisition of positions that are related to the collective, in which tangible rights and duties. The reflections present in the second category show that the action-reflection about the practice when developing the Interdisciplinary Island of Rationality, allowed me to make significant weights, punctuating obstacles and possibilities of my know-how, such as: student autonomy, compromised negotiation, research, available time, among others. Thus, in view of the diversity and complexity of the school space and of the methodological strategy of IIR, I conclude that the Interdisciplinary Island of Rationality, based on the CTSA approach, for dissociating itself from disciplinary teaching and aiming to promote the domain of knowledge, autonomy and communication / expression of the students, reveals with significant potential in the construction of the citizenship education of elementary school students. Finally, from the knowledge that emerged in this research was constructed a book directed to the teachers of the elementary school, in order to offer a material that can subsidize the realization of IIR in the educational spaces.

“No meu sangue corre as águas desse mar”: o movimento do bloco Pretinhos do Mangue, Curuçá-PA, Amazônia

This research seeks to discuss about the idea of nature produced by the playful people from the “Pretinhos do Mangue” block, in Curuçá County-Region of the Salgado Paraense. To carry out this discussion, I start with the theoretical guidelines of Environmental History (ARNOLD, 2000; PÁDUA, 2010; WORSTER, 2015) and Anthropology (CSORDAS, 2008; INGOLD, 2015). And, in this perspective, ethnography was used as a way to experience the ways of dwell in the environment, which are present in the block parade, at Carnival (FABIAN, 2013; SALDI; WAGNER, 2013; PEIRANO, 2014; INGOLD, 2015). During this period, the interlocutors aim to present the main non-humans who inhabit the city environment, and, as well, to enunciate the day by day of the artisanal fisherman. And these perceptual experiences of the “salgado” from Pará are materialized through their allegories: the “Caranguejo”, the “Guará”, the “Ostra” and the “Barraca do Avoado”. However, it is the use of “mud” (“tijuco” and “tabatinga”) that has attracted the most attention from the “playful”, because for them the mud-in-body manifests the “ecological” experience and the idea of “nature preservation". In this context, the media began to publicize this experience with the mangrove swamp, which started to promote more and more tourists to participate in the block. With that, it is noticed that the playful-curuçaenses seek to take the life of the "salgado" paraense to their parade, in order to "show" this experience to "all" who visit the Curuçá Carnival. Thus, the mud of the mangrove swamp and the allegories are not simply accessories used by the playful-curuçaenses, since they present their ideas of nature, at the “Pretinhos do Mangue” parade.

Panorama de atuação do Ministério Público Federal em recursos hídricos no Estado do Pará - ocorrências com atividades periciais no período de 2005 a 2018
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2019-10-31) SILVA, Benedito Evilázio Lima da; FERNANDES, Lindemberg Lima; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4641468846318922
This research presents an overview of the environmental performance of Ministério Público Federal (MPF), emphasizing the hydric resources in the state of Pará within 14 years (2005 to 2018). It refers to records (extrajudicial procedures and/or judicial procedures) in which the institutional experts corps developed expert activities. Through quantification, spatialization and grouping of occurrences in pre-established categories distributed in the hydrographic regions of the state of Pará, data collection and organization were performed by surveying the cases in which water resources appeared as the main or related theme, according to data provided by MPF-PA. The data processing was performed with the aid of Excel spreadsheet, QGis software and shp files, where products such as maps and tables related to environmental occurrences with emphasis on water resources were elaborated. The results indicated a total of 104 environmental occurrences that required expert MPF activities. The hydrographic region that presented the highest demand was the Costa Atlântica-Nordeste, followed by Xingu, Portel-Marajó, Tocantins-Araguaia, Baixo Amazonas, Calha Norte and Tapajós. The highest concentrations of occurrences with expert activities were associated with the presence of the capital of the state of Pará (Belém), population density, concentration of municipalities, the Barcarena Industrial District and the Belo Monte hydroelectric project. The category with the highest number of records was saneamento, followed by Empreendimentos e Obras em Área de Preservação Permanente - APP/Terras públicas, Flora/Desmatamento/Degradação and Poluição. The MPF unit that met the most demands was Belém, followed by Altamira, Marabá, Santarém, Itaituba, Paragominas, Tucuruí and Redenção. The study showed how MPF acts on environmental issues in water resources, and how this occurred, specifically, from 2005 to 2018 in the state of Pará.

This study analyzes the effectiveness of the National Tobacco Control Program (NTCP)'s effectiveness in Castanhal-PA, a Brazilian Amazon city. The program was implemented in 2006 and underwent decentralization in 2018. However, in the context of the Unified Health System (SUS) in the Amazon study, the effective implementation of the tobacco control program is filled with difficulties. So, we analyze the program's offering and retention rates, smoking cessation, population of smoking clients, treatment initiation and completion percentage, and association between sociodemographic variables and treatment outcomes. The study analyzed smoking users through FORMSUS forms from 32 Health Units that had anti-smoking treatment from January 2021 to December 2022. We used linear regression and retrospective descriptive statistical analysis. We also apply the chi-square test to check for differences. We visualized and analyzed the data using Microsoft Office® Excel. A sample of 227 individuals was studied in 2021 and 2022. Most participants were female (60.9%) and 60 or older (40.0%). About 47.9% reported having 02 to 03 minimum wages. Smoking was prevalent, with 40% smoking more than 04 cigarettes per day and 116 individuals smoking for more than 20 years. There was a high dropout rate from the NTCP in both years (71.87% and 70.99%). The variables "family income" and "race/color" were statistically associated (p-value = 0.0001). Implementing the NTCP varies by location, and units with the highest success rates can be used as best practice examples to improve access and achieve smoking cessation goals across the municipality. Regional peculiarities and logistical obstacles impact the success of the PNAB and PNCT in the Amazon context.

This article refers to the use of didactic and inclusive resources for the teaching of Environment, experience carried out in a class of PARFOR students who work in Primary Education with the discipline Biology. It aims to analyze the difficulties faced by these teachers who work with visually impaired students (blind/low vision). The methodology, based on qualitative research, took place in three different stages and culminated in the workshop entitled "Didactic and Inclusive Resources for Teaching the Environment", where the use of an "Inclusive Domino over the Environment" was built and experimented. The results show that the academics present experiences in the education of visually impaired students. However, there are still difficulties in promoting inclusive education in regular education.

(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2020-09-28) CRUZ, Erivan Sousa; ROCHA , Edson José Paulino da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/2313369423727020; PEREIRA, Simone de Fátima Pinheiro; http://lattes.cnpq.br/6059412003152989
Science teaching has required methodological strategies capable of dealing with a huge range of content. In order to train critical citizens in the classroom, it is necessary to support different models of knowledge presentation. The present research had as main objective, to improve the teaching-learning process in the teaching of Chemistry using as transversal educational themes of Environmental Chemistry and the Comic Magazine. The theme chosen was “Acids and Bases” and their relationship with environmental phenomena, such as acid rain. The software chosen was Hagáquê, a free comic book creator and Paint Shop Pro, an image editor. Polling questionnaires were used during traditional expository classes, the students' answers were treated with the Excel program. The application of the methodology that included, as the main core, the comic books, was carried out in two stages: the first using a traditional class and the second using the transversal theme Acid Rain and the comic book. The research made it possible to ascertain the improvement in the teaching and learning process assessed through questionnaires that demonstrated an increase in the number of correct answers to objective questions before and after the use of the alternative methodology in two classes of degree in chemistry (2016 and 2019) with an average of around 30%. Most students answered that they have “great interest” in the general chemical discipline and all students concluded that the use of environmental themes and comic books can help in the teaching-learning process.
