1. Zn, Co, Cr, As, and genotoxic effects in the ichthyofauna species from polluted and non-polluted/protected estuaries of the São Paulo coast, Brazil
Abstract: The human impact on estuarine regions results in an increasing concentration of trace elements in the environment, exposing aquatic organisms. In this study, Zn, Co, Cr, and As were determined in the muscle tissue of some fish species from Santos-São Vicente (SSV), a recognized polluted region, and in the Cananeia estuary (CAN). Genotoxicity was a

2. Influence of seasonality and pollution on the hematological parameters of the estuarine fish Centropomus parallelus
No presente estudo, foram utilizados parâmetros hematológicos do peixe tropical estuarino Centropomus parallelus como biomarcador não destrutivo. Os peixes foram coletados, no verão e no inverno, em dois estuários: Cananéia (CAN) e São Vicente (SVE). Foram analisados: hematócrito (Ht), contagem de eritrócitos (RBC), volume corpuscular médio (VCM),

3. Avaliação de desfechos relacionados à gestação em áreas contaminadas na região do estuário de Santos e São Vicente / Evaluation of pregnancy outcomes in contaminated areas of Santos and São Vicente estuary region
Background: Santos and São Vicente Estuary is contaminated with heavy metals, organochlorines compounds, dioxins and furans. Epidemiological studies show that fetuses are more susceptible to toxic chemicals than adults. This study evaluated occurrence of pregnancy events in contaminated and non-contaminated areas in estuarine region. Methods: This cross-sec

4. Aplicação da metodologia para estimativa do fator de emissão - nutrientes e metais pesados - para avaliar a contribuição dos efluentes de carcinicultura no estuário do rio Potengi, Natal (RN) / Application of the methodology to estimate the emission factor - nutrient and heavy metals - to assess the contribution of shrimp effluents in the estuary of the river Potengi, Natal (RN)
A criação de camarões marinhos em cativeiro tem sido acusada de causar sérios impactos ambientais, sobretudo em função do lançamento de grandes quantidades de nutrientes e metais pesados nas águas estuarinas. Diversos estudos realizados nos principais estados produtores de camarão no Brasil, através do uso de fatores de emissão, estimaram as carga

5. Integrated environmental assesment of Santos estuarine system s disposal site and adjancent zones / Diagnostico ambiental integrado da area de influencia do descarte do material dragado do estuario de Santos
The Atlantic Forest coastal plain which surrounds the city of Santos in the State of São Paulo, Brazil, has a great economic importance, principally due to the port of Santos, the largest in Latin America, and the Cubatão industrial complex. The regions estuary has been polluted by multiple contaminant sources for decades, due to industrial, portuary and

6. Diagnóstico ambiental das águas do estuário Jundiaí-Potengi pela determinação dos índices de qualidade da água e toxidez
This study is an environmental diagnosis of the Jundiaí-Potengi/RN estuarine system waters, using calculations of pollution indicator indices such as the Water Quality Index (WQI) and the Toxicity Index (TI). The samples were collected at twelve points on the estuary, at high and low tide, between August and November 2007, over four campaigns. The study are

7. ImplicaÃÃes de fatores ambientais na deposiÃÃo de plÃsticos no ambiente praial de um ecossistema estuarino
Marine debris are materials from anthropogenic sources, such as plastics, paper, glass, wood and others, that enter the marine and coastal environments from multiple sources, and are considered as one of the most important marine pollutants by the turn of the XXI Century. Sandy beaches are usually more studied because they are relatively easy to be monitored

8. DiagnÃstico geoquÃmico e geocronologia do sistema estuarino-lagunar do roteiro Alagoas
The estuarine lagoon system of the Roteiro is located in the central coast of Alagoas, showing the largest continuous area of preserved mangroves of the State of Alagoas. This ecosystem has been heavily impacted by various anthropogenic activities such as urbanization, the cultivation of oysters, the gas production, the manufacture of cement and the cultivat

9. Análise crítica da utilização de modelagem matemática na avaliação da dispersão de efluentes leves no litoral da Baixada Santista ( Estado de São Paulo). / The analysis of mathematical models in the assessment of effuents dispersion in Baixada Santista coastline (State of São Paulo).
The prediction of the hydrodynamic water circulation and pollutants dispersion, mainly in coastal areas, has been a problem that engineers have been facing. This is due to the increase environmental impacts that involve coastal engineering work and management. The usage of mathematic modeling as assessment tool is necessary for these studies. The main purpos

10. Biodisponibilidade de mercurio e outros metais-traço em sedimentos do Rio Cubatão, Sistema Estuarino de Santos-Cubatão (SP) / Bioavailability of mercury and other trace-metals in sediments of Cubatão River, Santos-Cubatão Estuarine System (SP)
Coastal-estuarine ecosystems from the south of São Paulo State are presently degraded specially in Cubatão municipality, in consequence of population concentration and, industrial and petrochemical complexes. These environmental impacts have begun in the 1950s after the construction of the largest Latin America petrochemical complex in the Cubatão city.

11. Hidrocarbonetos policíclicos aromáticos no meio ambiente: diferenciação de fontes em sedimentos e metabólitos em bile de peixes
Many studies on environmental ecosystems quality related to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) have been carried out routinely due to their ubiquotus presence worldwide and to their potential toxicity after its biotransformation. PAH may be introduced into the environmet by natural and anthropogenic processes from direct runoff and discharges and indirec

12. ESTERÓIS COMO MARCADORES MOLECULARES DA CONTAMINAÇÃO FECAL NO SISTEMA ESTUARINO IGUAÇU-SARAPUÍ, NOROESTE DA BAÍA DE GUANABARA (RJ) / STEROLS AS MOLECULAR MARKERS OF FECAL POLLUTION IN IGUAÇU-SARAPUÍ ESTUARINE SYSTEM, GUANABARA BAY NORTHEAST (RJ)
The contamination by domestic sewage of the Iguaçu River and Sarapuí channel, located in the north-western sector of Guanabara Bay, was investigated by the determination of sterols and elemental composition (C and N) of organic matter in suspended matter and superficial sediments. Physico-chemical and chemical characterization of water and sediments were c
