13. Experiencias en la aplicación de la educación ambiental como herramienta para la adaptación al cambio climático en espacios comunitarios, en Holguín-Cuba
Climate change affects the living conditions of the population, generating negative impacts on community areas. The rising temperatures, increased intensity and frequency of extreme weather events and other effects, damage the economy, politics, environment and society. These effects can be controlled by an effective adaptation, is environmental education as

14. Short-term stability of estuarine benthic assemblages: are storms pattern-defining events?
Storms, associated with strong winds and heavy rains, are often the most severe physical disturbances in shallow coastal areas causing instability to sedimentary environments. We hypothesized herein that if storms influence short-term assemblage structure of macrofauna, then assemblages should change after storms, while remaining relatively stable over calm

15. Ocorrência de ventos fortes no estado do Paraná : gênese e impactos
The knowledge of climatic conditions is essential to socioeconomic activities, especially for agricultural and urban planning. Thus has the objective of this work to present a study of winds in the state of Paraná, which was established by calculating and analyzing daily, monthly and yearly mean wind speed, relative frequency, distribution of the accumulate

16. Tendência dos elementos climáticos e da evapotranspiração da cultura do milho para a região de Viçosa- MG / Trend of weather elements and evapotranspiration of maize for the region of Viçosa - MG
O persistente crescimento na quantidade de dióxido de carbono na atmosfera terrestre, que pode ser causado pela industrialização, desmatamento e pelas emissões naturais, tem sido registrado desde a revolução industrial. Este aumento na emissão de gases antropogênicos pode levar a mudanças nas características do clima: temperatura do ar, umidade rel

17. Climate change and its effects on terrestrial insects and herbivory patterns
Climate change and extreme weather events affect plants and animals and the direct impact of anthropogenic climate change has been documented extensively over the past years. In this review, I address the main consequences of elevated CO2 and O3 concentrations, elevated temperature and changes in rainfall patterns on the interactions between insects and thei

18. Dynamic load-balancing : a new strategy for weather forecast models
Weather forecasting models are computationally intensive applications and traditionally they are executed in parallel machines. However, some issues prevent these models from fully exploiting the available computing power. One of such issues is load imbalance, i.e., the uneven distribution of load across the processors of the parallel machine. Since weather

19. Avaliação do impacto da variabilidade/mudanças climáticas sobre Euschistus heros, Telenomus podisi e ferrugem asiática na soja, no Região Sul do Brasil / Risk assessment of variability/climate change on the Euschistus heros, Telenomus podisi and asian soybean rust of soybean, in the southern region of Brazil
Brazil is the second largest soybean producer, however, biotic and abiotic factors affect the crop, causing serious damage, with significant economic impact. Among these problems, Euschistus heros and asian soybean rust. For biological control of the insects, the parasitoid Telenomus podisi has been described as one of the potential agents in MIP programs. T

20. Padrões climáticos atuais e futuros de temperatura do ar na Região Sul do Brasil e seus impactos nos cultivos de pêssego e de nectarina em Santa Catarina / Current and future air temperature climatic patterns in the South Region of Brazil: the impacts on peach and nectarine production in Santa Catarina
Over the years, climate changes and their direct impacts were observed in different parts of the globe. The present study considers the main air temperature patterns, including their extreme values, in Southern Brazil and assesses their impacts on peach and nectarine production. The analysis is based on daily air temperatures recorded at weather stations dis

23. SIMULATING POTATO TUBER YIELD IN CLIMATE CHANGE SCENARIOS / SIMULAÇÃO DA PRODUTIVIDADE DE TUBÉRCULOS DE BATATA EM CENÁRIOS DE MUDANÇA CLIMÁTICA
Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.), Solanaceae, is ranked fourth in food amount production, exceeded only by wheat, rice and corn. Brazil has potential in climate and soil for growing potatoes, but with a growing concern of society with possible changes in global and regional climate because of anthropogenic increase in greenhouse gases, this crop may be affected

24. The public health implications of melioidosis
Melioidosis, which is caused by the bacterium Burkholderia pseudomallei, is a potentially fatal tropical infection, little known outside its main endemic zone of Southeast Asia and northern Australia. Though it has received more attention in recent years on account of its claimed suitability as a biological weapon agent, the principal threat from melioidosis
