ABSTRACT The use of foraminifera as indicators is due to the sensitivity in response to environmental variations and in this paper, we present this correlation in two Brazilian coastal areas: Guanabara Bay and Baixada Santista. In Guanabara Bay, the species found show four sub-environments. A: marine influence, B: environmentally threatened, C: pollution by industrial waste and D: contamination by domestic sewage. In the Baixada Santista two sub-environments are highlighted: Sub-environment 1 presents typical associations of marine environment indicating greater water renewal, and in sub-environment 2 predominant species with continental input where water renewal is less efficient. *Corresponding author Patrícia Pinheiro Beck Eichler, Graduate Program in Geodynamics and Geophysics Laboratory of Marine Geology and Geophysics and Environmental Monitoring, Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (PPGG, GGEMMA, UFRN), University Campos, Lagoa Nova, 59072-970 Natal, RN, Brazil.

  • Guanabara Bay
    Guanabara Bay - 2B m³ of water. 384km². 55 rivers contribute an average annual flow of 350m³/s (Portuguese: Baía de Guanabara, IPA: [ɡwanaˈbaɾɐ]) is an oceanic bay located in Southeast Brazil in the state of Rio de Janeiro. On its western shore lies the city of Rio de Janeiro and Duque de Caxias, and on its eastern shore the cities of Niterói and São Gonçalo. Four other municipalities surround the bay's shores. Guanabara Bay is the second largest bay in area in Brazil (after the All Saints' Bay), at 412 square kilometres (159 sq mi), with a perimeter of 143 kilometres (89 mi). Guanabara Bay is 31 kilometres (19 mi) long and 28 kilometres (17 mi) wide at its maximum. Its 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) wide mouth is flanked at the eastern tip by the Pico do Papagaio (Parrot's Peak) and the western tip by Pão de Açúcar (Sugar Loaf). There have been three major oil spills in Guanabara Bay. The most recent was in 2000 when a leaking underwater pipeline released 1,300,000 litres (340,000 US gal) of oil into the bay, destroying large swaths of the mangrove ecosystem. Recovery measures are currently being attempted, but more than a decade after the incident, the mangrove areas have not returned to life. Max. length 31 km (19 mi) Max. width 28 km (17 mi) Surface area 412 km2 (159 sq mi) The bay has a mean 1.0 tidal range and exhibits a mixed , mainly semidiurnal period. The area weighted depth is 5.7m and the maximum depth is 58 m.

In Brazil Aedes aegypti is the only known vector. During the 2007–2008 period, Rio de Janeiro state experienced the most severe dengue epidemics ever reported in terms of morbidity and mortality. During this period, 322,371 cases and 240 deaths were registered, with 100 deaths due to dengue haemorragic fever/ dengue shock syndrome and 140 due to other dengue-related complications. Dengue transmission is influenced by closely related factors, many of which directly associated to the environment.

O aumento da concentração de metais-traço em seus sedimentos está entre as alterações mais relevantes. O objetivo deste trabalho foi verificar a contaminação por metais-traço e avaliar a disponibilidade em sedimentos de áreas de manguezais (Surui, Nova Orleans e Piedade). Concentrações de Cd, Zn, Pb, Ni, Cu e Al foram determinadas em segmentos de testemunhos -1 após tratamento com 1 mol L de HCl e com HNO3. Fe e Mn foram determinados na lixívia de HNO3 concentrado. As concentrações foram baixas em comparação com aquelas reportadas para a Baía de Guanabara e o Cd mostrou a mais alta recuperação em 1 mol L-1 HCl (90%). Apesar de oxidados ou subóxicos os sedimentos mostraram SAV na faixa de 0,07 to 18,79 μmol g-1 sugerindo heterogeneidade e desequilíbrio aparente. Óxidos de Fe, Mn, carbonatos e matéria orgânica são as fases que mais provavelmente controlam a biodisponibilidade dos metais.

The lives of almost 9 million souls are directly or indirectly affected by the Guanabara Bay ecosystem, a fact that immediately justifies our concerns about the current state of its waters. We hope this edition will inspire those who care about the preservation of the environment, looking for ways to guarantee a more egalitarian society and, above all, more concerned with their legacy for future generations.

Abstract: Exclusion Territories are geographical areas under the action of degenerative environmental phenomena of anthropogenic origin, which compromise quality of life in general. One of the greatest examples of such areas is the Guanabara Bay and its surroundings, the scene of some of the worst disastrous incidents and locale of frequent episodes of human misery. This article presents a brief description of the main characteristics of the region, providing some technological suggestions of biogeographic recovery to be adopted by public policies that intend to align themselves with the good practices of ecological economy, sustainability and quality of life.

Avaliações para coliformes fecais na água do mar indicam, em várias regiões, uma situação imprópria para cultivo ou extração de mexilhões. Não obstante, a atividade extrativa envolve entre 50 e 100 coletores e uma produção de 20 a 65 t mensais, in natura . A Associação dos Maricultores de Jurujuba, em Niterói, com 30 a 40 pescadores, responde por cerca de 50 a 70% desse total. A coleta do mexilhão nas áreas mais internas da baía foi descontinuada, mantendo-se porém inalterada, ao longo dos últimos 20 anos, na região entre Boa Viagem, em Niterói, e o Aeroporto Santos Dumont, no Rio de Janeiro, até a entrada da baía. Mais recentemente, a extração foi estendida às ilhas oceânicas adjacentes à baía. As condições de processamento do mexilhão na Associação de Jurujuba são adequadas às normas sanitárias, porém o produto coletado pelos pescadores independentes é processado e comercializado em condições extremamente precárias. PALAVRAS-CHAVE : Mexilhão Perna perna , extração e comercialização, baía de Guanabara, Brasil.
