ALTERAÇÕES TEMPORAIS SOBRE A ESTRUTURA FUNCIONAL DAS ASSEMBLEIAS DE PEIXES DURANTE ONZE ANOS DE FORMAÇÃO DE UM RESERVATÓRIO DO MÉDIO RIO TOCANTINS, BRASIL

The damming of rivers for the construction of hydroelectric dams represents an important generator of environmental impact in the aquatic ecosystem, affecting the composition and the diversity of the fish fauna. This work aims to evaluate the temporal changes in the functional structure of fish assemblages in the Tocantins River before and after the construction of the Lajeado dam. Were used fourteen functional attributes measured from the fauna of fish collected with gillnet during eleven hydrological periods. Functional attributes related to size, body size, habitat use and reproductive strategy were more sensitive to the formation of fifteen functional groups. In general, there was an increase in the abundance of all groups after the reservoir, with more occurrence of small species, fusiform or compressed body and pelagic or benthopelagic habitat. Demersal habitat species, long-distance migrators and body size large were the most affected by the reservoir, with a strong reduction of abundance (less than 1% of the total). The analysis based on the construction of functional groups helps to identify the traits that are more sensitive to the new condition imposed by the reservoirs. So that the upstream area, of lotic nature, are recognized the priority conservation areas and free of new hydroelectric projects, in order to ensure the survival of species that share the most sensitive traits.Keywords: Tocantins River; reservoirs; environmental impact; neotropical fish; functional diversity.O represamento de rios para a construção de hidrelétricas representa um importante gerador de impacto ambiental no ecossistema aquático, afetando a composição e a diversidade da fauna de peixes. Este trabalho tem como objetivo avaliar as mudanças temporais na estrutura funcional das assembleias de peixes no rio Tocantins antes e após a construção da barragem de Lajeado. Foram utilizados quatorze atributos funcionais mensurados da fauna de peixes coletadas com malhadeira durante 11 períodos hidrológicos. Os atributos funcionais relacionados ao tamanho, forma do corpo, uso do habitat e estratégia reprodutiva foram mais sensíveis à formação de 15 grupos funcionais. Em geral, houve um incremento na abundância de todos os grupos após o barramento, com maior ocorrência de espécies de pequeno porte, corpo fusiforme ou comprimido e habitat pelágico ou bentopelágico. Os táxons de habitat demersal, migradores de longa distância e de grande porte foram os mais afetados pelo barramento, com forte redução da abundância (menos de 1% do total). A análise baseada na construção de grupos funcionais auxilia na identificação dos atributos que são mais sensíveis à nova condição imposta pelos reservatórios. De modo que as regiões a montante, de natureza lótica, sejam reconhecidas como áreas prioritárias de conservação e livres de novos projetos hidrelétricos, com intuito de garantir a sobrevivência de espécies que compartilham os atributos mais sensíveis.Palavras-chave: rio Tocantins, reservatórios, impacto ambiental, peixes neotropicais, diversidade funcional

The Brazilian economy during the old regime crisis (c. 1750-1807)

Published online: 28 January 2022While some authors defend the existence of a widespread economic crisis in Brazil during the 18th century, motivated by the fall in the extraction of precious metals, others suggest that the colonial economy maintained a positive performance thanks to the growth of its domestic market. The main goal of this article is to challenge these two explanations, showing that different rhythms of development characterised Brazil's economy in each of its regions. We show that between the 1750s and 1790s, the Amazon region (Maranhão and Pará) experienced uninterrupted growth. Despite some fluctuations, Bahia and Pernambuco showed a tendency towards growth while the centre-south (Rio de Janeiro and Minas Gerais) suffered an economic contraction. We conclude that there was a stagnation in the added value of exports from all regions, whilst simultaneous growth for all territories occurred only after 1790

Resenha de “Cultural Backlash: Trump, Brexit, and Authoritarian Populism”, de Pippa Norris e Ronald Inglehart. Cambridge University Press; 540 páginas.

Esta resenha foi produzida a partir de discussões no âmbito do Curso Populismos e Direito Internacional, na graduação da Faculdade de Direito da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul, no segundo semestre de 2019. Neste Curso buscou-se compreender a emergência dos regimes autoritários de extrema-direita no mundo, a partir do Brasil, e qual o papel que o Direito Internacional exerce nesses regimes, que varia em um espectro que vai desde a imposição de freios a regimes autoritários até a instrumentalização de autoritarismos pela linguagem do direito internacional. A resenha está estruturada em duas partes. Na primeira parte, descreve-se o conteúdo do livro. Já na segunda parte, critica-se o livro, ora embasando-se em reações de outros autores, ora nas reações originais que surgiram no Curso, se pautando pela experiência comparada de autoritarismos com características brasileiras

JAK2 V617F Mutation Prevalence in Myeloproliferative Neoplasms in Pernambuco, Brazil

Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq)Background: The JAK2 V617F mutation is associated with three myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs): polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocythemia (ET), and primary myelofibrosis (PMF). It generates an unregulated clonal hematopoietic progenitor and leads to abnormal increased proliferation of one or more myeloid lineages. Subjects bearing this mutation may present more frequently with complications such as thrombosis and bleeding, and no specific treatment has yet been developed for BCR-ABL-negative JAK2 V617F-negative MPNs. Aims: To determine the prevalence of JAK2 V617F in MPNs in Pernambuco, Brazil, and to compare it with previous studies. Material and Methods: 144 blood samples were collected at the Hospital of Hematology of the HEMOPE Foundation and were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism with BsaXI enzymatic digestion. Results and Discussion: 88% (46/52) of the patients with PV, 47% (39/81) with ET, and 77% (8/11) with PMF were positive for JAK2 V617F, while more than 35% of the individuals were JAK2 V617F-negative, confirming a high prevalence of this abnormality in MPNs, more frequently with a low mutated allele burden, similar to what has been reported in other Western countries, despite differences among methods used to detect this mutation. Screening for JAK2 V617F may allow specific management of these diseases with JAK2 inhibitors in the future and highlights the need for further studies on the pathogenesis of BCR-ABL-negative JAK2 V617F-negative MPNs.167802805Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq)Fundacao de Amparo a Ciencia e Tecnologia do Estado de Pernambuco (FACEPE)Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico (CNPq

Universal Properties of Mythological Networks

As in statistical physics, the concept of universality plays an important, albeit qualitative, role in the field of comparative mythology. Here we apply statistical mechanical tools to analyse the networks underlying three iconic mythological narratives with a view to identifying common and distinguishing quantitative features. Of the three narratives, an Anglo-Saxon and a Greek text are mostly believed by antiquarians to be partly historically based while the third, an Irish epic, is often considered to be fictional. Here we show that network analysis is able to discriminate real from imaginary social networks and place mythological narratives on the spectrum between them. Moreover, the perceived artificiality of the Irish narrative can be traced back to anomalous features associated with six characters. Considering these as amalgams of several entities or proxies, renders the plausibility of the Irish text comparable to the others from a network-theoretic point of view.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures, 2 tables.

Multiple populations in globular clusters. Lessons learned from the Milky Way globular clusters

Recent progress in studies of globular clusters has shown that they are not simple stellar populations, being rather made of multiple generations. Evidence stems both from photometry and spectroscopy. A new paradigm is then arising for the formation of massive star clusters, which includes several episodes of star formation. While this provides an explanation for several features of globular clusters, including the second parameter problem, it also opens new perspectives about the relation between globular clusters and the halo of our Galaxy, and by extension of all populations with a high specific frequency of globular clusters, such as, e.g., giant elliptical galaxies. We review progress in this area, focusing on the most recent studies. Several points remain to be properly understood, in particular those concerning the nature of the polluters producing the abundance pattern in the clusters and the typical timescale, the range of cluster masses where this phenomenon is active, and the relation between globular clusters and other satellites of our Galaxy.Comment: In press (The Astronomy and Astrophysics Review
