1. Evaluation of sediment contamination by urban sewage in a stretch of Capibaribe River, Pernambuco, Brazil
Anthropic activities are responsible for the increase in environmental contamination, especially in aquatic systems, demanding studies to assess and monitor contamination levels in different water bodies. We have done a chemical characterization of eleven sediments in order to evaluate the level of contamination by domestic sewage from the Capibaribe River,

2. Antibiotic resistance in surface waters from a coastal lagoon of Southern Brazil under the impact of anthropogenic activities
Resumo Resíduos oriundos de atividades humanas podem atingir corpos d'água e contribuir significativamente para a presença de populações bacterianas resistentes a antibióticos. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar populações de bactérias cultiváveis resistentes a antibióticos em uma lagoa costeira impactada por atividades como agricultura e urbaniz

3. The role of sediments in the carbon and pollutant cycles in aquatic ecosystems
Resumo Objetivo Modificações antrópicas na paisagem estão acelerando os ciclos biogeoquímicos e promovendo desbalanços entre ecossistemas terrestres e aquáticos de maneira sem precedentes, com impactos ainda desconhecidos nos processos bióticos e abióticos. Desta forma, é crescente o interesse científico nas relações entre atividades humanas e

4. Impactos da mudança de vegetação local no aporte de matéria orgânica para um estuário tropical preservado (Estuário do Rio Itapicuru – BA)
Estuaries are major areas of organic matter (OM) deposition, playing an important role in the global carbon cycle. The Itapicuru's river estuary (IRE) is in the North Coast of Bahia (Brazil), in na Environmental Protected Area. Although it presents preserved conditions, some environmental changes caused by human activities can be observed. This study evaluat

5. Relationship of Neotropical otter vestiges with environmental and anthropogenic factors
RESUMO A lontra neotropical, Lontra longicaudis é um mustelídeo semiaquático que usa seu habitat de diferentes formas. Para entender a influência relativa de fatores antrópicos e ambientais sobre a distribuição de lontras neotropicais, nós conduzimos monitoramentos sistemáticos de vestígios de lontras na região do médio Rio Guamá, Pará, Amazôn

6. Fe3O4@C core-shell nanoparticles as adsorbent of ionic zinc: evaluating of the adsorptive capacity
Zinc is an important chemical element in many metabolic mechanisms at low concentrations, but can be toxic when administrated in doses higher than 500 µg·g-1 or 3 mg·L-1. This metal has been detected in many aquatic environments due to several industry activities and swine manure effluents. Thus, the contaminant removal of water and wastewater has been a

7. Evaluation of the embryotoxicity in zebrafish (Danio rerio) of the flocculant and coagulant compounds used for water remediation
Resumo Objetivo: O carreamento decorrente das atividades de mineração atinge corpos d'água, causando contaminação da água e acidificação por metais tóxicos. Como conseqüência, a depleção de oxigênio ocorre, com o desaparecimento de certos organismos bênticos, perdas na biomassa do fitoplâncton e do zooplâncton, e mortalidade de peixes. Rem

8. Ten Years-Snapshot of the Occurrence of Emerging Contaminants in Drinking, Surface and Ground Waters and Wastewaters from São Paulo State, Brazil
Emerging contaminants have been considered one of the main concerns for ensuring the quality of water around the world. This work presents the results of 10 years of analyses carried out in the state of São Paulo (Brazil) that has the high population density and intense agricultural and industrial activities. In this work 58 compounds (9 hormones, 14 pharma

9. Food web and ecological models used to assess aquatic ecosystems submitted to aquaculture activities
RESUMO: Ecossistemas aquáticos continentais desempenham papel fundamental no desenvolvimento econômico e social, entretanto, são vulneráveis à degradação ambiental devido às diversas pressões a que estão submetidos. Entre as principais atividades antrópicas a interferir nestes ambientes, podemos destacar a aquicultura. A modelagem matemática de

10. Rapid Assessment of Habitat Diversity Along the Araras Stream, Brazil
ABSTRACT Agriculture, urbanization, and industrialization are some of the anthropogenic activities that constantly generate negative impacts on natural environments. Part of this degradation directly affects aquatic systems. This study aimed to evaluate the visual characteristics of the Araras Stream, located in the municipality of Araras, São Paulo state,

11. Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) as a Biondicator of Copper and Cadmium Toxicity. A Bioavailability Approach
The acute toxicity of copper and cadmium in Oreochromis niloticus was evaluated through a 96 h static assay. Precipitation of Cu and co-precipitation of Cd in the presence of Cu were noted, being indicative of differences in nominal and actual concentrations of metals. Under these conditions, LC50-96h was determined as 3.53 mg L-1Cu, 20.1 mg L-1 Cd and 1.36

12. Algicidal effects of aqueous leaf extracts of neem (Azadirachta indica) on Scenedesmus quadricauda (Turp.) de Brébission
The application of synthetic algaecides for the control of algae produces by-products that are sometimes toxic to the environment. There is a need for natural and cheap alternatives to synthetic algaecides. In the present study, we investigated the potential of aqueous crude extract of Azadirachta indica to inhibit the growth of Scenedesmus quadricauda. Phyt
