The following day (28 February 2012) from Arzabe et al., 2010; Frost, 2020). Four species are known remnant pond of a small lake at a location near to that from Brazil—P. arrabali Izecksohn, 1976; P. carvalhoi previous (12.1550ºS, 45.0205ºW; elevation 563 m) (Miranda-Ribeiro, 1937); P. pipa (Linnaeus, 1758); P. we collected another juvenile P. carvalhoi (HUFMA snethlageae Müller, 1914—but only one, P. carvalhoi, 2077, SVL 17.20) and one tadpole at Gosner stage is endemic. The distribution of P. carvalhoi stretches 42 (Gosner, 1960) (HUFMA 2078, snout-tail length from the northeastern State of Ceará, southward to the 45.65 mm, Fig. 2B). The surrounding habitat of both State of Espírito Santo, with observations originating collection sites was characterised by grasses and trees from the last ten years (e.g., Arzabe et al., 2010; Santana close to roads and pastures, and was part of a wider et al., 2014; Jorge et al., 2015; Frost, 2020), including mosaic of savannah, with pastures, forest fragments, one outside the reported distribution (Silva et al., 2010) and seasonal semi-deciduous forest, similar to what (Fig. 1). A factor common to wild observations of P. is found in Agreste vegetation (Pereira et al., 2011). carvalhoi is that the species is found in the Caatinga Specimens were collected under permit SISBIO: (semi-arid areas of thorny scrub), and Agreste vegetation 38635–1, euthanised using 5% Xylocaine, fixed using (transitional zones between the Caatinga and the Atlantic Forest) (Carvalho, 1937; Arzabe et al., 2010). Herein, we report novel observations of P. carvalhoi in the Brazilian Cerrado (savannah) biome. On 27 February 2012 (during the rainy season) we collected two juvenile P. carvalhoi (HUFMA 2075, 1 Departamento de Genética, Universidade Federal do Paraná, Centro Politécnico, Avenida Coronel Francisco Heráclito dos Santos 100, Curitiba, Paraná 81531-990, Brazil. 2 Departamento de Agronomia, Universidade Estadual do Maranhão, Cidade Universitária Paulo VI, Avenida Lourenço Vieira da Silva 1000, São Luís, Maranhão 65055-310, Brazil. 3 Departamento de Biologia, Universidade Federal do Maranhão, Avenida dos Portugueses 1966, São Luís, Maranhão 65080-805, Brazil. 4 Universidade Federal do Sul da Bahia, Instituto Sosígenes Figure 1.

    SUMÁRIO EXECUTIVO 1. Apresentação O Ramal do Agreste Pernambucano é um empreendimento de infra-estrutura hídrica, estratégico pela sua inserção na Região do Agreste Pernambucano, composto por um sistema de obras hidráulicas – canais, estações de bombeamento de água, pequenos reservatórios intermediários, uma linha de transmissão e uma subestação para suprimento elétrico do projeto, que capta água no Eixo Leste do Projeto de Integração do rio São Francisco com Bacias do Nordeste Setentrional (PISF), originária da barragem de Itaparica, no Estado de Pernambuco. O produto final do empreendimento – água bruta – a ser distribuído através do um sistema de adutoras a ser construído, após tratamento, extrapola os municípios de intervenção direta da obra, atingindo municípios das bacias hidrográficas por ele beneficiadas indiretamente – Ipojuca, Moxotó, Ipanema, Goiana; Capibaribe; Sirinhaém; Mundaú; Una; Paraíba; e Traipu. Os estudos que embasaram a definição do empreendimento compreenderam três etapas de análise: os Estudos de Inserção Regional, que avaliaram a disponibilidade e a demanda hídrica do Agreste Pernambucano, os Estudos de Viabilidade Técnico- Econômica, que avaliaram as alternativas para o anteprojeto de engenharia e definiram a melhor opção de traçado, concepção das obras e seus custos, além da análise da viabilidade econômica e ambiental; e o Projeto Básico do Empreendimento, com o detalhamento do projeto de engenharia, com aprimoramento da alternativa selecionada nos Estudos de Viabilidade.

Neste trabalho foi investigado a dinâmica não linear das séries temporais de chuvas mensais registradas de 1962 a 2012, em três estações no estado de Pernambuco, Brasil, localizadas em regiões com diferentes regimes de chuvas (Zona da Mata, Agreste e Sertão), fornecidos pelo Laboratório de Meteorologia do Instituto de Tecnologia de Pernambuco (LAMEP/ITEP). O objetivo deste trabalho é contribuir para uma melhor compreensão da distribuição espaço-temporal da precipitação no estado de Pernambuco.

  • Variability in Number of Rainy Days in State of Sergipe
    (DOI): 10.5777/PAeT.V4.N1.03 This article is presented in Portuguese and English with “resumen“ in Spanish. Brazilian Journal of Applied Technology for Agricultural Science, v. 4, n.1, p. 45-64, 2011. Scientific paper Variability in number of rainy days Abstract in state of Sergipe – SE Among the many factors that affect human activities, mainly Emerson Ricardo Rodrigues Pereira1 agriculture, the climate is distinguished by its decisive Joherlan Campos de Freitas2 influence on the variations presented by the irregularities in the dry and wet periods in the given region. Among the Antonio Ricardo Santo de Andrade3 variables that make up the climate, especially for annual Veneziano Guedes de Sousa4 crops, rain is the variable that most affects the result of crop production. In this sense, the objective was to evaluate the variability of rainfall data for the State of Sergipe, SE, through the preparation of maps of the average number of rainy days, and the coefficients of variation (CV) of rainfall and the number of rainy days for annual periods, dry and rainy. In this work it was used the series of monthly total rainfall of 40 rainfall stations with at least 30 years of data, continuous and seamless. We found that the highest values of the coefficient of variation are associated with lower levels of rainfall and number of rainy days. The variability of rainfall is lower in regions with rainy periods, when compared to dry periods. Key word: variation coefficient, rainy day, dry and wet periods. Introduction Kendall test, SILVA (2004) observed significantly decreasing tendencies in several places of this Rainfall is one of the most important variables region.

BOGATAY 1969 THE DEVELOPMENT SETTING: NORTHEAST BRAZIL and , INDUSTRIALIZATION IN THE NORTHEAST Two Chapters from the Research Report Market Processes in the Recife Area of Northeast Brazil Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science Department of Agricultural Economics Michigan State University February 1969 Alan F. Bogatay Foreword In October 1966 I joined the field research team of Michigan State University in Recife, Brazil. This team was then initiating a large-scale study of market processes in Northeast Brazil. The two primary objectives of the study were: 1) to analyze the role of marketing systems in economic development, and 2) to determine what reforms in market processes could accelerate economic growth. The study was financed by the U.S. Agency for International Development and executed as a combined effort of the Latin American Market Planning and Latin American Food Study Centers of Michigan State University. The Superintendency for the Development of the Northeast (SUDENE) provided Brazilian counterpart technicians and local support for the research project. The research team attached considerable importance to the particular characteristics of the developing society in which it was operating. The economic and cultural setting peculiar to Northeast Brazil heavily influenced the design of the research as well as the nature of the recommendations which resulted from the research. Moreover, in order to effectively communicate the results of the study to the Brazilian technicians and decision-makers with an interest in it, the research had to be placed in the context of development policies and programs operative in Northeast Brazil.

  • God, the Devil, and Development in Northeast Brazil
    God, the Devil, and Development in Northeast Brazil * ANTHONY W. PEREIRA Glauber Rocha's 1964 film “God and the Devil in the Land of the Sun” (Deus e Diabo na Terra do Sol) memorably portrays the harshness and brutality of the lives of a poor family in Brazil's Northeast, the country's most afflicted region. Cheated and beaten by his landowning employer, a cattle herder persuades his wife to join him in becoming a member of a fanatical religious sect led by a messianic leader. Mesmerized by the leader's words, the humble couple consents to the bloody sacrifice of their infant son.
