MODELAGEM DE DISTORÇÕES ENTRE SAD 69 E SIRGAS 2000 PELO MÉTODO DE SHEPARD E GRADES REGULARES

Brazil follows the tendency of some countries to update and/or review their fundamental geodetic network. The adoption of geocentric referentials like SIRGAS 2000, the new official reference system of the Geodetic Brazilian System has been an advance. Changes in referential implies in coordinates changes on the network stations as well as the network geometry. To make use of analogical and digital products which are already known in the old referentials are necessary approaches to the coordinate conversion, which minimize the distortions between the used reference frames. This paper presents  a distortion modeling approach between reference frames, based on distortion grid generation by using the  Shepard’s method. To analyze the approach some experiments were performed with the generation of a 1º×1º distortion grid to model the distortions between SAD 69 (1996) and SIRGAS (2000) frames. The results in the test stations were promising, with an average reduction of 50% in the RMS coordinates after the distortions modeling.O Brasil acompanha as tendências de alguns países na atualização e/ou revisão da rede geodésica de referência. Um avanço nesse sentido tem sido a adoção de referenciais geocêntricos como o  SIRGAS2000, o novo referencial oficial do Sistema Geodésico Brasileiro (SGB). A mudança de referencial implica na alteração das coordenadas de estações que materializam a rede geodésica, bem como da sua própria geometria. Para o aproveitamento de produtos analógicos e digitais já existentes nos antigos referenciais são necessárias metodologias para conversão de coordenadas que minimizem as distorções  entre as diferentes realizações. Nesse contexto, este trabalho apresenta uma metodologia de modelagem de distorções entre realizações de sistemas geodésicos, baseada na geração de grades de distorção com utilização do método de Shepard. Para analisar a metodologia foram realizados testes com uma grade regular de espaçamento de 1º×1º na modelagem das distorções entre o sistema SAD 69 (realização de 1996) e SIRGAS (realização de 2000). Os resultados obtidos nas estações de teste foram promissores, com uma redução média de 50% no EMQ das coordenadas após a modelagem das distorções

TRANSFORMAÇÃO DE COORDENADAS COM MODELAGEM DE DISTORÇÕES ENTRE SAD69 E SIRGAS2000 COM O USO DE THIN-PLATE SPLINES

Diversos países têm passado por processos de mudança na estrutura geodésicafundamental, convergindo na adoção de referenciais geodésicos geocêntricos. NoBrasil, a adoção do SIRGAS2000 envolve a existência conjunta de duas realizaçõesdo sistema Córrego Alegre, duas realizações do sistema SAD69 e uma realização dosistema SIRGAS2000. Para o aproveitamento de produtos nos referenciais antigossão necessários métodos para transformação de coordenadas entre os referenciaisexistentes. Neste contexto, este artigo apresenta uma solução para a transformaçãode coordenadas entre referenciais, baseado em Thin-Plate Splines (TPS), que reúnecaracterísticas para a modelagem de dados provenientes de uma transformaçãolinear, juntamente com distorções de natureza não linear. O modelo foidesenvolvido para trabalhar com coordenadas cartesianas tridimensionais, sendoapresentados neste artigo resultados com dados simulados bem como com dados doSGB (Sistema Geodésico Brasileiro). Em pontos de verificação em SAD69(realização de 1996 - SAD69/96) foram obtidos valores de RMSE (Root MeanSquare Error) de 78,2 mm em latitude e 67,5 mm em longitude após a transformação para SIRGAS2000. Na comparação entre o modelo TPS e oproporcionado pelo ProGriD os indicadores estatísticos foram reduzidos em 97% aoutilizar o modelo TPS, indicando que o uso deste modelo é promissor,possibilitando uma maior qualidade no processo de transformação de coordenadas emodelagem da distorção entre referenciais geodésicos

Challenges to Promote Sustainability in Urban Agriculture Models: A Review

Urban agriculture (UA) can be used as an action to promote sustainability in cities and inform public health policies for urban populations. Despite this growing recognition, its implementation still presents challenges in countries in the Global North and Global South. Background: In this context, this systematic review aims to identify the development of frameworks for the implementation of UA as a sustainable action and its main opportunities and shortcomings in meeting urban socio-environmental demands. Methods: In this review, using the PRISMA protocol, we evaluated 26 studies on the interplay between UA and sustainability surveyed on the Web of Science to provide an overview of the state of the art. Conclusions: In summary, it was possible to identify many key challenges in UA adoption, which regard air and soil contamination, availability of green areas, layout of urban infrastructure, food distribution, among others. Due to numerous socio-economic and environmental contextual factors in cities, especially when comparing realities of the Global North and Global South, there is a need to develop a model that can be adaptable to these different contexts. Thus, it is recognized that the concept of sustainability does not present a universal understanding and that in its search it could be argued that one of the most important gaps is still to address social issues in relation to environmental ones

Nonsurgical Endodontic Treatment of Type II Dens Invaginatus in A Maxillary Lateral Incisor: A Case Report

Dens invaginatus (DI) is one of the developmental dental anomalies that results in an invagination of the enamel organ into the dental papila during odontogenesis. The purpose of this study is to report a case of nonsurgical endodontic treatment of an Oehlers type II DI in a right maxillary lateral incisor with an extensive periapical damage, along with the two-year clinical and tomographic follow-up. A 30-year-old patient was referred for endodontic treatment of tooth #12. On clinical examination, a change in the shape and color of the crown was observed. The tooth responded negative to pulp sensibility, percussion, palpation and mobility tests. After tomographic evaluation, an Oehlers type II DI was visualized, in addition to an extensive periradicular lesion. The diagnosis was asymptomatic apical periodontitis. The treatment was carried out in two sessions, through intense enhancement of the auxiliary chemical substance with passive ultrasonic irrigation, XP-Endo Finisher and the use of hydroxide-based intracanal medication. Appropriate treatment in cases with anatomic variations requires an accurate and early diagnosis based on clinical examination and radiographic images. A two-year follow-up of the present case showed that the correct diagnosis associated with appropriate instrumentation techniques, supplementary disinfection, and adequate three-dimensional sealing of the canal with filling material, resulted in regression of the periradicular lesion and bone repair

REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM of Mimosa scabrella IN CONSECUTIVE REPRODUCTIVE EVENTS IN THE MOUNTAINOUS REGION OF SANTA CATARINA STATE

The reproductive system determines evolutionary inheritance of populations by establishing patterns of gametes union to originate the next generation. The objective of this study was to investigate the mating system of Mimosa scabrella Benth. (bracatinga), a Brazilian tree species with socioeconomic and ecological importance, in a population of the mountainous region of Santa Catarina state, in two consecutive reproductive events. The analyzes in the 2015 and 2016 reproductive events were lead with isoenzymatic markers and the mating system characterization was performed based on mixed crosses and correlated crosses models, and the means of each parameter were statistically compared. Among the results, the multilocus outcrossing rates (tm(2015): 0.925 and tm(2016): 0.845) showed high magnitude and differed from the unit; the self-fertilization rates were significantly different from zero (s (2015): (0.075 and(2016): 0.155) indicating that the species does not show self-incompatibility. In addition, the positive outcrossing rates among relatives (tm-ts(2015): 0.142 and tm-ts(2016): 0.170) suggest inbreeding crosses in the population. The highest proportions in offspring were half-sibs (2015: 0.736 and 2016: 0.579), suggesting predominance of randomness at crossings. From this it is concluded that M. scabrella has a mixed mating system, with predominance of crossing at population level

Época de semeadura reduz a incidência da brusone do trigo

The objective of this work was to assess the effect of sowing date on the intensity of wheat blast disease, as well as the yield losses caused by this disease in different wheat (Triticum aestivum) genotypes. The experiments were conducted in 2013 at the Sertãozinho experimental station of Empresa de Pesquisa Agropecuária de Minas Gerais (Epamig), in the municipality of Patos de Minas, in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. Fourteen wheat genotypes and two sowing dates were evaluated. The experimental design was a randomized complete block with three replicates. The evaluated variables were: incidence, severity, thousand grain weight (TGW), grain yield, and yield losses. A disease index (DI) was calculated, based both on the incidence and the severity of the disease, to measure blast intensity in wheat. The sowing date significantly affected DI, TGW, and grain yield. Significant linear correlations were observed between DI and yield losses (0.89), between losses and TGW (‑0.85), and between losses and grain yield (‑0.93). For wheat blast, DIs greater than or equal to 0.5 indicate potential yield losses equal to or greater than 70%. The EP063030 line and the MGS Brilhante and BRS 264 cultivars are the most tolerant to blast, when exposed to high disease pressure.O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar o efeito da época de semeadura sobre a intensidade da brusone, bem como as perdas na produtividade causada por essa doença em genótipos de trigo (Triticum aestivum). Os experimentos foram conduzidos, em 2013, na Fazenda Experimental de Sertãozinho da Empresa de Pesquisa Agropecuária de Minas Gerais (Epamig), em Patos de Minas, MG. Catorze genótipos de trigo e duas datas de semeadura foram avaliados. Utilizou-se o delineamento experimental de blocos ao acaso com três repetições. As variáveis avaliadas foram: incidência, severidade, peso de mil grãos (PMG), rendimento de grãos e perdas de produtividade. Calculou-se o índice da doença (ID), com base tanto na incidência quanto na severidade, para medir a intensidade da brusone em trigo. A data de semeadura afetou significativamente ID, PMG e rendimento de grãos. Houve forte correlação linear entre ID e danos (0,89), entre danos e PMG (‑0,85) e entre danos e rendimento (‑0,93). Para a brusone do trigo, IDs iguais ou maiores que 0,5 indicam potencial de danos de rendimento iguais ou superiores a 70%. A linhagem EP063030 e as cultivares MGS Brilhante e BRS 264 são as mais tolerantes à brusone quando expostas à alta intensidade da doença

The northernmost haulout site of South American sea lions and fur seals in the western South Atlantic

We present estimates of the seasonal and spatial occupation by pinnipeds of the Wildlife Refuge of Ilha dos Lobos (WRIL), based on aerial photographic censuses. Twenty aerial photographic censuses were analysed between July 2010 and November 2018. To assess monthly differences in the numbers of pinnipeds in the WRIL we used a Generalized Linear Mixed Model. Spatial analysis was carried out using Kernel density analysis of the pinnipeds on a grid plotted along the WRIL. Subadult male South American sea lions (Otaria flavescens) were the most abundant pinniped in the WRIL. Potential females of this species were also recorded during half of the census. The maximum number of pinnipeds observed in the WRIL was 304 in September 2018, including an unexpected individual southern elephant seal (Mirounga leonina), and a high number of South American fur seal yearlings (Arctocephalus australis). However, there was no statistically significant difference in counts between months. In all months analysed, pinnipeds were most often found concentrated in the northern portion of the island, with the highest abundances reported in September. This study confirms the importance of the WRIL as a haulout site for pinnipeds in Brazil, recommends that land research and recreational activities occur in months when no pinnipeds are present, and encourages a regulated marine mammal-based tourism during winter and spring months.Fil: Procksch, Natália.
