13. Ecotoxicology assay for the evaluation of environmental water quality in a tropical urban estuary
Abstract Most studies evaluating the impacts of river pollution in the semi-arid region of Brazil have been geared towards physiochemical analyses, and investigations of the adverse effects of water pollution on associated organisms are scarce. This study aimed to evaluate the water quality in the Poxim river estuary in Aracaju, Sergipe throughout the dry an

14. Comportamiento energético de mosaicos urbanos representativos (La Plata-Buenos Aires-Argentina): influencia de las variaciones térmicas intraurbanas
Abstract Simplified HVAC models for buildings estimate energy demand based on a global loss coefficient (G) and the heating and cooling degree days (DD). The DD are calculated, from citie's average temperatures, published by official entities. However different researches have recorded that the city affects the urban climate with thermal variations due to it

15. Predictive determinants of scorpion stings in a tropical zone of south Iran: use of mixed seasonal autoregressive moving average model
Abstract Background: More than 1.2 million scorpion stings occur annually worldwide, particularly in tropical regions. In the absence of proper medical care, mortality due to venomous scorpion stings is an important public health issue. The aim of the present study is to explore the temporal trend of scorpionism with time series models and determine the eff

18. Determination of CO2, CH4 and N2O: a Case Study for the City of Rio de Janeiro Using a New Sampling Method
A new sampling method using polypropylene syringes and chemical analysis by gas chromatography was proposed and applied to determine CO2, CH4 and N2O. The samples' stability was evaluated and compared with the stability of the samples in stainless steel canisters and Tedlar® bags. This methodology was applied to a case study in the urban area of the city of

19. Population dynamics of Megalobulimus paranaguensis (Gastropoda: Pulmonata) in the southeast coast of Brazil
ABSTRACT. The population dynamics of Megalobulimus paranaguensis (Pilsbry & Ihering, 1900), a large and long-lived land gastropod from Brazil's Southeast (Atlantic Forest) was studied between 2006 and 2009, at an urban park in the city of Santos, state of São Paulo. The study included biometry, weighing, and marking and recapture of adult individuals. The v
