The man-nature relationship and the concern with the availability of natural resources, especially water, is present in the most important world conferences on the environment, being included in the 2030 Agenda as part of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals that aim at actions that guarantee water quality, protection and restoration of aquatic systems, as well as the areas that house these resources, for the sustainability of water on the planet and protection of biodiversity. In this sense, the sources of the humid forest of Chapada do Araripe-CE have great relevance for the guarantee of the local environmental, social and economic development, therefore, being equally important for the protection of the biodiversity of the aquatic fauna. From this perspective, this research has as main objective to carry out a faunal survey of aquatic macroinvertebrates and to evaluate the environmental quality of the area and waters of the sources, with the hexapods and aquatic mites of the humid forest, thus contributing to the Agenda 2030. The sampling was carried out in nine sources, between the months of January and April 2020. The vegetation, gravels, sediments and debris collected from the sources were passed through a granulometric sieve of 30 cm in diameter and mesh with pores of 0.25 mm, being the sampling effort 10 min at 10 m away from the source and 10 min at the point where the water is born. The material was placed in an 80 mL container with 70% alcohol. Invertebrates were extracted from the sample using the Kero-float extraction method (kerosene flotation). Screening was performed under a stereoscopic microscope. The faunal analysis of the families of aquatic macroinvertebrates collected was carried out using indices of abundance, relative abundance, frequency and richness. The environmental quality of the surroundings of the area was evaluated by the Environmental Impact of Springs Index (IIAN) and the quality of the waters of the sources was evaluated from the Biological Monitoring Working Party (BMWP) index. Statistical analyzes were performed with the R software. With the study we demonstrated that there is a certain diversity of hexapod families in the evaluated springs that favors their use in studies on water quality. The IIAN indicated sources with a degree of protection: "Excellent" (3); "Good" (2); and "Reasonable" (4). The BMWP index indicated "Good" water quality for the Valentim I and Valentim de Cima sources; "Acceptable" for Tremedor; "Doubtful" for Batateiras de Baixo, Coqueiro I, Pending, Saco e Saquinho I; and "Criticism for Batateiras de Cima". The occurrence of Hydracarinas of the morphospecies Hydryphantidae sp.1, Hydryphantidae sp.2, Limnesiidae sp. and Mideopsis sp., which represents the first records of mites for the sources of the phytoecological unit of the humid forest, in Chapada do Araripe, Ceará, Northeast of Brazil and of the species Rhynchohydracarus dividuus, which is the first record of occurrence of this species for the Brazil. Considering that this resource is a topic of interest in all dimensions of Sustainable Development (social, cultural, environmental, territorial, economic and political) and essential for the survival of present and future generations, it is essential to implement mitigating, recovery and , protection and preservation of these resources and their area, thus ensuring the maintenance of biodiversity and local development.

Water, as a natural resource and a vital asset for the continuity of life, must have adequate availability in quantity and quality. Among the uses given to groundwater in the region of Bodocó-PE, domestic supply, irrigation and animal watering stand out. The municipality, located in the Araripe region, has its territory inserted in the semi-arid region, where family-based farmers especially explore agriculture, requiring irrigated crops for the production of forage for animal feed. In view of the above, the objective was to evaluate whether the groundwater exploited in the municipality of Bodocó is suitable for the irrigation of forage plants without causing environmental problems. For this, the wells in the region were surveyed, in a total of 85 samples, analyzed for the electrical conductivity of the water and classified according to CONAMA 357/05 and RICHARDS (1954), as well as the geology and type of soil, as well as the main crops. used as forage in the region for animal feed. According to the results obtained, most groundwater exploited in the municipality of Bodocó can be used for irrigation of forage crops; the region with crystalline basement called the Parnamirim Complex group did not present adequate water for use in the irrigation of forage plants; the use of cultures with low tradition, but high forage potential and adapted to saline conditions, such as gliricidia, moringa, pigeon pea and cunhã, can be used for the production of feed for ruminants. The municipal groundwater proved to be suitable for use in watering animals, both ruminants and non-ruminants.

TThe semi-arid region of Brazil is heavily punished by recurrent droughts, with a large part of its soils with crystalline basement, which confers inferior quality to its subsoil waters. The use of irrigation in this region is not always feasible, due to limited water quantity or poor water quality and shallow soil conditions. Hydroponics, however, has no soil restriction and crops grown under hydroponic cultivation are more salinity tolerant, which allows for the use of more saline or brackish waters. Therefore, the objective of this research was to evaluate the performance of Crespa lettuce under different salinity levels of the solution (1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 and 3.5 dS m-1) in a hydroponic system NFT (Nutrient Film Technique) automated and alternative, and thus, verify to what level of salinity it is possible to economically explore this culture with saline or brackish waters. Three benches B1, B2 and B3 were built, divided into blocks BL1, BL2, BL3, BL4, BL5 with 5 treatments (A, B, C, D and E) and 4 repetitions, in a factorial scheme of 5 x 5 x 4 For the research, an automated system for irrigation was developed using Arduino and temperature and humidity sensors. Climatic data (Air Temperature and Humidity), physicochemical data of the nutrient solution water (EC, pH and Temperature), morphological data of the plant (Number of leaves, Stem diameter, Total fresh mass, Fresh mass of leaves and Fresh mass of roots). The germination of lettuce cv. Moana was 89.53%. The control of pH and EC is essential for the production of seedlings and plant growth in hydroponic cultivation, since they indicate the availability and amount of nutrients. The energy consumption proves to be lower than the system of fixed intervals. As for salinity, there was a significant difference at the level of 5% of probability for fresh leaf mass and total fresh mass between treatments, where the levels of 1.5 and 2.0 ds m-1 presented higher averages. It was concluded that the proposed automation system is a viable alternative, the alternative structure used was adequate, and that the lettuce for the conditions of the experiment does not present development at levels higher than 2.0 dS m-1.

This research, whose title is Feminine Protagonism and Popular Education: An Analysis of the Principles of Good Living in Quilombo de Arrudas In Araripe - Ceará, has the general objective of analyzing the protagonism of women from the Quilombola Community of Sítio Arruda in Araripe - Ceará, and the constitution of their community practices as principles of Good Living. In this sense, it is important to analyze the specificity of the quilombola social dynamics of Sítio Arruda and the female participation within the practices constituted locally, whether in the preservation of elements concerning cultural heritage in its historical connections with ancestry, or in the female engagement and protagonism in around the process of political awareness and self-recognition as a quilombola community and, consequently, in the forms of structuring the political organization of the community. In this perspective, we apprehend the practical dimension of the concept of Good Living in the quilombola sociability of Arruda in order to verify the humanizing and emancipating potential of a path of local sustainable development rooted in community, solidarity and cooperative parameters, antagonistic to the hegemonic notion of development centered on accumulation of capital and reduction of life to the aspect of the commodity. Due to this potential, we shift the analysis to the field of education, as it is understood here that the specific social dynamics of the quilombo, with its own history, demand a pedagogy that respects the entire production of culture, forms of knowledge and world perspectives of ancestral ballast. It is here that quilombo pedagogy is situated as the pedagogical-training component in convergence with the most significant elements, material, symbolic and linguistically, of a particular quilombola community. In this displacement and based on these guidelines, we point to possible articulations between quilombo pedagogy and an effective possibility of experience in popular education. In the case of a dissertation structured in the form of articles, it is necessary to emphasize that the culmination of the research did not take place from a sum of the parts, but under a systematic veneer in the treatment of the object, that is, the theoretical paths -methodological provided conciseness and objectivity to the conclusion of the proposal. Thus, in the first article, we tried to give intelligibility to the concept of Good Living by inserting it in the social context of quilombola women in the community of Arrudas. The discussion gains a logical unfolding in the second article, when the quilombola status is systematically analyzed in order to understand in depth the specificity of quilombola sociability. In the third article, the practical accentuation of the principles of Good Living becomes latent from the female narratives whose social dynamics of the Quilombola Community of Arruda as a way of life carries territoriality and ancestry and demands a specific pedagogy, in addition to being a fertile ground for a pedagogy that emerges from the cultural repertoire of the community, which allows us to establish a relationship between quilombo pedagogy and the parameters of popular education.

The entry of pollutants into aquatic systems causes the degradation of rivers, lakes and coastal areas, reducing the availability of good quality water and increasing costs for later use. High concentrations of phosphorus in water are capable of upsetting the ecological balance, deteriorating water quality and raising issues from eutrophication to the intelligent and sustainable use of this resource in human activities. Therefore, the objective of this work was to study the adsorptive capacity of pequi peel ash and its efficiency in the removal of phosphorus from aqueous solutions, determine the ideal conditions for such a process, stipulate the parameters of kinetics, equilibrium and thermodynamics of the process. The pequi of the species Caryocar coriaceum WITTM is a fruit widely found in the region of Cariri, Ceará, Brazil. The pequi extractivism generates a large amount of waste, especially the fruit peels that do not have a specific destination. Therefore, these peels were used as raw material for the production of the bioadsorbent used in this study. The pequi bark ash was produced at 500°C in an oxidative atmosphere. Analysis by energy dispersive spectroscopy confirmed the adsorption of phosphorus by the ash, with an increase of phosphorus in the ash composition from 1.5% to 3.7% after the adsorption process. In addition, it was also possible to confirm that the pequi peel in natura is not able to adsorb phosphorus from aqueous solutions. The x-ray fluorescence analysis, in addition to confirming the adsorption of phosphorus in the same proportions of energy dispersive spectroscopy, showed the composition of the oxides present in the pequi peel ash, the main oxides being: SiO2 (17.59%), CaO (13.41%), K2O (4.79%), MgO (2.94%), P2O5 (1.98%), SO3 (1.16%), Fe2O3 (0.82%), Al2O3 ( 0.73%) and MnO (0.20%). The analysis of the ash after the adsorption process by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy showed the formation of new bonds and an increase in the intensity of existing bonds even before the adsorption process, indicating chemical adsorption (chemisorption). The thermogravimetric analysis indicated that there are four mass loss events in the production of ash, with the highest mass loss (41.44%) in the last event at temperatures above 400 °C. The first mass loss has an endothermic character, while the following three have an exothermic character (related to the oxidation of the material). The residual mass after thermogravimetric analysis was 8.8%. The study of the zero load point (pHPCZ) showed that the pequi peel ash has a pHPCZ = 9.8. For the study of adsorption kinetics, the pseudo-second order model was the best suited to the process at a concentration of 100 mg L-1 of phosphorus, presenting an adsorption capacity at equilibrium of approximately 19.80 mg g-1 . The Elovich kinetic model was the one that best fitted the process at concentrations of 150-200 mg L-1 of phosphorus, presenting very low desorption constants for both concentrations (< 1 mg g-1), evidencing chemisorption. For the equilibrium study, the monolayer Jovanovic isotherm model was the best suited to temperatures of 10-20°C, with maximum adsorption capacities of 67.99-55.21 mg g-1, respectively. The Langmuir isotherm model was the one that best fitted the process at a temperature of 30 °C, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 48.64 mg g-1. The highest removal efficiency was 98.88% at 30 °C for a phosphorus concentration of 100 mg L-1, the maximum experimental phosphorus adsorption capacity was approximately 71.08 mg g-1. Thermodynamic studies indicate that the process of phosphorus adsorption by pequi peel ash is a spontaneous and favorable process, exothermic and with structural changes. Therefore, pequi bark ash has the potential to be used as an excellent bioadsorbent for phosphorus removal from aqueous solutions.

Springs are important natural water subsystems belonging to hydrographic basins, being responsible for the exfiltration of water to the surface, and for maintaining the local/regional hydrological dynamics. However, given the importance of water use in activities carried out by human beings, these natural aquatic elements have been presenting serious environmental problems, such as: the occupation of their recharge areas, the vegetation suppression of their surroundings and the related loss of flow, among others. Crato, Cariri Metropolitan Region - RMCariri/CE, given the regional and local geoenvironmental conditions of the Araripe sedimentary basin and the Araripe plateau, presents a relevant occurrence of springs on the slope of this plateau. These, given the context of urbanization that is expanding in the municipality, have become the target of environmental degradation, caused by the inadequate occupation of hillside areas and their surroundings. In this perspective, this research aims to carry out an environmental analysis of the headwaters of Crato/CE, based on their hydrogeomorphological, historical and geoenvironmental conditions. For this, the research was divided into two articles: in the first, a bibliographic and documental survey was adopted as a methodology about the themes and possible applications of environmental analysis to springs; in the second, we sought to identify the physical-natural elements related to these, thus, in addition to the bibliographic survey in the office, there was mapping in the laboratory and field activities in the slope areas of the Chapada do Araripe. As a result, the research can identify that nowadays the integrated environmental analysis can be applied in different scales of analysis and that, in the case of springs, these can be studied through the application of environmental zoning supported by geoenvironmental diagnoses. In the context of urban and peri-urban headwaters of Crato/CE, it was identified that, even when dealing with important responses referring to the local and regional hydrogeomorphological context, they, from the expansion of cities, have been suffering negative changes in terms of their natural dynamics. Of the 93 identified springs, 45 are located in urban and peri-urban areas and, of these, 10 have been suffering from these impacts. Even though it is not a process that afflicts all springs, it is something that points out the impact of urbanization on the areas where they are located. In this way, it is concluded that, in addition to the diagnoses subsidizing studies at scales that cover the environmental systems of the springs, these can be the basis for their sustainable use both at local and regional levels.

In Brazil, waste tire management is based on Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), giving producers and importers the responsibility for their correct disposal. Under Brazilian legislation, responsibility is also shared between municipalities, users and other stakeholders involved in the Reverse Logistics (LR) of the material. Thus, waste tires are directed to treatment systems, transforming them into reprocessed raw material or forwarding them to energy use, characterizing the economic circularity of the material. Given the above, this dissertation addresses how the management of waste tires is inserted in a context of Circular Economy, with the objective of contributing to the management of pneumatic waste developed throughout Brazil. Therefore, through bibliographic research and document analysis, an inventory of the quantity of waste tires that have already been correctly disposed of in a national and state stratification was first elaborated, presenting the usual legislation and the management method used for such waste. In a second moment, exploratory, bibliographical and documentary research was carried out, elaborating a case study that describes the management of waste tires performed at the municipal and local level in the metropolitan region of Cariri Cearense. Finally, a systematic review of the literature and analysis of secondary data were carried out, in order to know the treatment technologies applied to waste tires described in the literature, and the sustainable actions carried out by tire manufacturing companies installed in the national territory. As a result, it is understood that tire waste must be treated following the hierarchy of the 12R's (Redesign, Renew, Refuse, Reduce, Resell/Reuse, Repair, Recondition, Remanufacture, Reuse, Recycle, Recover and Remove), however the research indicates that recycling and reuse are prioritized treatment options. The study points out that the Circular Economy (EC) for waste tires is widely defended and promotes Sustainability, resulting in benefits such as: source of reprocessed raw material; minimizes negative impacts; generates employment and income; economically values sustainable products; promotes social awareness, the quality of the natural environment; encourages shared responsibility; promotes the implementation of an integrated and participatory management; slows down and closes production cycles; and maximizes the functional utility of materials and energy.

Sustainability has become a constant discussion around the world. In the context of organizations, presents itself not only as an improvement in the environmental perspective, but also in the economic and social dimension. Sustainable Logistics Plans must be part of the planning of agencies, whether public or private. In the public sphere, the brazilian government issued Decree 7.746/12, amended by Decree 9.178/17, which together with Normative Instruction n.º 10/2012 determine that all federal public organizatins devise Sustainable Logistics Management Plans(PLS). Higher Education Institutions (HEI), inserted in the mandatory adoption of a PLS, have a crucial role in this area, as they contribute to the formation of critical thinking and the dissemination of knowledge of future decision makers, altering market demands and contributing to changing the chains productive. Based on this legal and sustainability need, the present dissertation aims to suggest to an HEI a proposal of key actions to be adopted for the construction of the aforementioned PLS. Initially, through a quali-quantitative approach and secondary data, it was possible to condense the number of HEIs with implemented plans and the possible causes of non-adherence of Brazilian federal HEIs. An exploratory and qualitative research was also carried out with the object of study, envisioning the sustainability actions already adopted, and it was possible to verify that the HEI did not remain far from what is necessary, and that it still lacks articulation and greater dissemination and knowledge about the topic by the management team. Finally, using exploratory, bibliographic research and case studies, it was possible to list a plan with key actions, using the 5W2H method, to be developed in order to implement a PLS in the institution studied. The results presented show a proposal of objective and systematic actions for the adoption by the IES of a full and functional PLS.

Springs are natural elements of great importance for the hydrological cycle and for the maintenance of ecosystems. The potential of springs transcends the natural field, due to to its decisive role in human development and maintenance of the quality of local life, needing to be protected in a specific way, through legislation and action of the local population. The realization of this research was motivated by the number of springs present in the municipality of Crato, due to the need for protection and preservation, due to the importance of these for local development and the potential of the springs to boost the sustainable regional development of the municipality of Crato and the region of Cariri. At the moment the municipality of Crato has 93 springs in its territory, playing an important role essential for the development of the local population. The problem listed in this work sums up in what is the panorama of the legislation of the municipality of Crato applied to its sources and what is the impact of internal legal strengthening to achieve regional development sustainable? The main objective of this study is to analyze the environmental legislation associated with sources of the city of Crato (RMCariri, Ceará), verifying the historical construction, the current diagnosis and the future perspective of the environmental protection of its waters for the regional development based on participatory management. This is a search bibliographical, theoretical, documentary, with qualitative method and data analysis of the type exploratory, the first article was dedicated to the documentary analysis of the minutes of the meetings of the of the Salgado River Sub-basin, and the second article carried out an analysis of the legislation applied to springs at the federal, state and municipal levels. While main results of this study are the fragility of the laws for the protection of springs, the incentive still quite the participatory management of water resources is symbolic, in its exercise in harmony with the local public bodies, and, finally, the need to develop public policies with sustainable strategies for the protection of springs and incentives for this protection through public policies and partnerships with state institutions. This panorama suggests to the municipality of Crato to an internal legal restructuring, in water environmental matters, to reach the sustainable regional development.

Civil construction has a strong impact on the global environmental crisis that we are experiencing by working with unsustainable forms of production, harmful in their interference with the environment. Atresidential constructions, as they have a strong participation in this sector, are also the target of concern for necessary practice changes. Faced with this problem, the present study focuses on the analysis of how single-family residential architectural projects can guide the construction sector in a more sustainable way. From a general objective which sought to investigate the relationship of single-family residential architectural projects in Cariri with environmental, economic and social sustainability criteria aimed at civil construction, had as empirical objects of study two single-family homes located in Cariri Ceará (municipalities of Crato and Missão Velha), designed and whose executions were managed by the research author. The study had a qualitative and exploratory nature, and triggered several methodological procedures, among which the literature review (which gave the entire theoretical basis of the research) and case studies (for the analysis of which it was necessary to create an analysis method). Among the main results achieved are: demonstration of how Integrated Eco-Efficient Solutions can favor less aggressive to the environment, without leaving anything to be desired in terms of construction and habitability for your users; the correlation of these solutions not only with the three dimensions of sustainability, but with the intersections between them; the need to think about an architectural project articulated with its execution and with the entire production chain of construction; and the ratification of the environmental, economic and social viability of bioconstruction Against other conventional constructions, following a trend presented in studies that have been carried out in the area. In the conclusions of the work, the goals achieved, the limitations of the research, its main academic, social and contributions to sustainable regional development, as well as the expected future perspectives in the face of its presentation to the community.

The Northeast was one of the three largest cotton producing regions in Brazil, but the occurrence of the long drought of 1979-1983, scrapping of technical assistance and rural extension, and the occurrence of the cotton boll weevil, Anthonomus grandis, in plantations, added the opening of imports in the early 1990s, took the culture into a deep crisis. Initiatives have been developed to reintroduce cotton cultivation in the Brazilian semi-arid region, especially with regard to the management of the boll weevil. The use of insecticides emerged as a solution for pest control and gained strength through the discourse of efficiency with speed and practicality, becoming a widely adhered practice in agriculture, however studies were noting its harm, although not enough to reduce uses, show the need to seek really effective solutions, capable of reaching the farmer and thus contributing to ensuring agricultural productivity by reducing negative externalities. The theory of trophobiosis, based on organic farming, argues that a nutritionally unbalanced plant will be more susceptible to attack by pests and chemical products such as pesticides tend to promote this imbalance. Based on this premise, we sought to evaluate the use of organic farming techniques in cotton as a way of protecting against insect pests. To this end, three experiments were carried out at the Embrapa Experimental Station in Barbalha-CE between the period 2019 to 2020, under different cultivation conditions: irrigated, rainfed and greenhouse systems. The nitrogen-fixing bacterium Azospirillum brasilense, the fungus Beauveria bassiana and biochar in cotton were evaluated, analyzing the ability of these agents to improve crop nutrition, to express resistance to insect pests. The variables used as indicators were infestation of insect pests in the field and emergence of A. grandis in the field, as well as in the laboratory. The data obtained were submitted to analysis of variance and, when significant, the means were compared using the Scott-knott test. In the irrigated system, the presence of the insect pest A. gossyipii was identified, concluding that it was influenced by the phenological period of the crop and its natural enemies, but not by the sources of nutrition. In the rainfed area, identifying the presence of A. grandis, it was noticed that the treatments Azospirillum brasilense and Beauveria bassiana reduced the incidence of A. grandis. Under greenhouse conditions, it was found that BRS Araçá cotton plants treated with the bacterium Azospirillum brasilense had a lower occurrence of Anthonomus grandis oviposition. Studies of technologies that seek possibilities of viable agricultural production combined with environmental and social principles are essential for sustainable agriculture.

Most groundwater originates from excess rain that seeps into the soil surface. As a consequence, surface activities can threaten groundwater quality (FOSTER, et al 2002). The application of the vulnerability assessment methodology by the GOD method (FOSTER & HIRATA, 1988) in the medium aquifer in the Araripe sedimentary basin, Ceará - Brazil was developed in a GIS environment, as well as the modeling of contamination sources by the POSH method (FOSTER, et al 2002). The crossing of the natural vulnerability of the aquifer to potentially contaminating activities is called contamination hazard (FOSTER & HIRATA, 1988). The results of natural vulnerability modeling showed that most of the aquifer system was classified as having medium vulnerability (61.89%), followed by high vulnerability (16.74%) and low vulnerability (14.01%). When assessing the danger of contamination, the results are even more worrisome. The areas of high potential for contamination are linear following the bed of the main rivers in the region, aggravated by the lack of sanitation. The areas with a high risk of contamination are led by the municipality of Juazeiro do Norte with an area of 31.43 km², followed by Barbalha, with 20.24 km² and Missão Velha with 19.44 km². As for the danger of contamination in public supply wells, of the 359 wells, 26.74% were identified in areas of high and extreme danger, mainly in Juazeiro do Norte, thus, a significant portion of the region's population may consume water unfit for human consumption.

The detection of phenomena on the earth's surface is an important and necessary work, especially when dealing with large-scale phenomena such as oil slicks at sea and deforestation in large-scale forests. However, monitoring these phenomena through optical satellite images brings with it complications in terms of continuity in the generation of images. The Synthetic Aperture Radar, however, presents itself as ideal for monitoring the Earth's surface in a reliable, continuous and global way, since it allows the generation of images with its own light source and with higher resolution than conventional optical systems, in addition to enable its operation regardless of weather conditions. However, the difficulty of working with these images is centered on the interpretation of the imaged data, requiring processing to extract information. This is due to the presence of a stochastic noise that significantly degrades the image. Thus, the use of probability distributions are of fundamental importance in the modeling of these data. In this dissertation, we present a stochastic similarity measure for SAR images that expresses significant gains in terms of information and classification of SAR images, which can be used to monitor, quantify and classify natural disasters on the earth's surface, such as oil spills at high sea, evolution of deforestation of forests, pollution of rivers and lakes.

The modeling and prediction of groundwater levels are fundamental for the assessment of water availability. Therefore, time series formalisms are a robust alternative for inference about the state of this important resource. However, the use of predictor combination techniques for the modeling and prediction of time series of groundwater levels is still a little explored topic. The objective of this work is to develop combined models of time series prediction of groundwater levels. The Araripe Sedimentary Basin, in the State of Ceará, in the semi-arid region of Brazil, was adopted as a case study. The individual models used were classical Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), Extreme Learning Machines (ELM), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks and Support Vector Regression (SVR). The combination was performed using techniques such as Simple Mean (cSA), Simple Median (cSM), Minimum Variance (cMV), Copulas (cCP), in addition to the combination via ANN (cANN) and SVR (cSVR). The performance of the models was compared and classified according to error metrics. Most of the series studied showed significant lowering of levels. However, the models were able to represent and predict the behavior of groundwater in the aquifers of the Araripe basin in a satisfactory way. The ARIMA and LSTM models were superior, but the combined models showed attractive results, outperforming most of the individual alternatives. The combined approaches proposed can be improved.

The COVID-19 pandemic was caused by the spread of SARS-CoV-2, a coronavirus that is transmitted between humans, primarily by inhalation of aerosols or ingestion of droplets, but also via the fecal-oral route or contact with contaminated surfaces. The disease has affected the world population not only with regard to health, but also socioeconomic and political aspects. Even with protective measures, the virus was not contained, causing deaths and other illnesses that were not directly caused by SARS-CoV-2. Although it can affect any human being, studies show that some infectious diseases disproportionately affect the poorest people and that there is a relationship between socioeconomic inequalities and the health of the population. In addition, the interactions between social and biological processes, where health problems interact with each other, and adverse social conditions exacerbate the effects on health, make COVID-19 characterized as a syndemic rather than a disease. pandemic. In view of this, this research assesses whether there is a correlation between socioeconomic and demographic indicators with the worsening of COVID-19 in different regions of Brazil. For this purpose, a descriptive statistical analysis and analysis of complex networks were performed between the number of cases of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, deaths and patient characteristics, such as sex, race, age, risk factor and education, and socioeconomic and demographic indicators. The results of the analyzes showed the different ways that COVID-19 reached the most vulnerable populations, dealing with the specificities of each region of the country, and that the variables with the greatest importance in the system were the Social Vulnerability Index, the Gini Index and the Density of Residents by Household Room. Such results may contribute to the adoption of public policies capable of reducing the spread of COVID-19, in addition to preventing outbreaks of other viruses.

This work was prepared with the objective of carrying out a study on the trajectory of 17 quilombola women from the Souza site, in the implementation of the Quilombola Women and Their Productive Backyards project, carried out by the Associação Cristã de Base - ACB through the construction of Social Technologies (TS) , Chapéu do Padre Cícero cisterns, productive backyards and Family Biowater, in the quilombola community of Sitio Sousa, in the Municipality of Porteiras - CE, discussing the concepts of social technologies, the relevant aspects regarding access to water and food insecurity, collecting information from the productive, economic and social aspects in the daily activities of the women involved in the research, through a comparative analysis of data obtained before and after the use of technologies. In this perspective, to present the quilombola territory, to understand the space that the work was developed, portraying the social and economic aspects of the women benefited from the project, sharing the trajectory of women, giving visibility to the activities developed by them through technologies and consequently the gains in the production, which contribute to women's empowerment, and in achieving the goals of the Sustainable Development Goals SDGs, especially in goal 05, which deals with gender equality, and goal 06, which seeks to ensure the sustainable use of water and sanitation for all. It was a dissertation work elaborated in the form of articles, which together gave subsidies to reach the proposed results. Thus, in the first article we seek to present social technologies, highlighting their importance with regard to water and food security, in people's quality of life and in community changes. The second article investigates the main activities developed by women in the community and the agricultural practices used by them to generate income and support the family. In the third article, we sought to understand the profile of the benefited women, identifying the social and economic situation, through an analysis based on interviews based on questionnaires, which made it possible to study the benefits achieved with the technologies. This made it possible to link social, economic and productive aspects in a work aimed at the local and sustainable development of the Quilombola community of Souza.

-
The occurrences of erosive processes, due to the misuse and occupation of the soil, are considered one of the most worrying environmental problems currently faced. In Conservation Units, the occurrence of these processes entails risks to the quantitative and qualitative stability of an entire system, especially water and soil. In this context, the drainage area of Lagoa dos Macacos, located in an Integral Protection Conservation Unit, the Municipal Natural Park of Timbaúbas, in Juazeiro do Norte - CE, has presented several erosive processes. Associated with this fact, the aforementioned Park receives daily releases of gray water from rainwater galleries. That said, this research aims to evaluate the influence of gray water release on the erosive process at the edge of Lagoa dos Macacos and, consequently, on the water quality of this lagoon. To evaluate the water quality, the parameters pH, electrical conductivity, dissolved oxygen, chemical oxygen demand, biochemical oxygen demand, total solids, suspended solids, dissolved solids and sedimentable solids were determined. The soil, in turn, was evaluated through the analysis of pH, electrical conductivity, total organic carbon, labile carbon and soluble carbon. Soil erodibility was determined through granulometry, liquidity limit, plasticity limit, real grain density, rapid dispersion, disaggregation test and aggregate stability. Statistical analysis of the physical-chemical data of water and soil was performed using descriptive statistics and the Kruskal Wallis test, using the Excel 2019 and BioEstat 5.3 programs, in that order. The R Studio software was used for the elaboration of box plot graphs. From the results obtained, it was verified that, despite the gray waters having altered the content of organic matter in the pond's edge area, the mechanical characteristics of the soil, evaluated in this research, were not altered. However, due to the also direct supply of gray water to the lagoon, associated with the transport of soil particles eroded during surface runoff, it was found that the water quality conditions of the researched lagoon do not meet the requirements established by Resolution No. 357 of CONAMA, for Class 1 water bodies. In view of these results, it is inferred that it is necessary for the managing body of this Conservation Unit to prepare its Management Plan and enforce, among others, the actions aimed at meeting the mandatory objective of this unit, which is to preserve natural ecosystems and their ecologically relevant physical and biological elements, for the guarantee and maintenance of ecosystem services, among which, the contribution to water supply and soil regulation stand out .

Water management is of great importance for the development sustainability, being even debated by the United Nations and included in the sustainable development goals. Monitoring water consumption can be accurately done using evapotranspiration estimation techniques, as well as advanced methods such as the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) that use climate data. This work aimed to use the language of R programming to implement methodologies and methods in computation, estimation and reference evapotranspiration (ETo) forecast. For the development of this work The R programming language was used as the main tool for: checking and data organization; implementation of methods and presentation of results. The data had as source the automated meteorological station called A315, located in Barbalha, Ceará. This work produced free software, available to the entire community academic, able to simplify the workflow by automating data preparation meteorological data and calculate evapotranspiration and estimate through meteorological data combined with neural networks, obtaining ANN models with R2 equal to 0.9962 using Atmospheric Pressure, Solar Radiation, Maximum Temperature, Minimum Temperature, Humidity Relative and Wind Speed as input data.

The Brazilian Magna Carta of 1988 brings in its normative framework the recognition and guarantee of Cultural Rights, as well as the north of its systematization and achievement, in the form of public policies for Brazil, its states and municipalities. The municipality of Juazeiro do Norte, emancipated since July 22, 1911, a member of the Metropolitan Region of Cariri - RMC, in the State of Ceará - CE, has a Municipal Secretariat of Culture - SECULT, a spatial area in which the study was promoted. The aforementioned body is part of the organizational structure of the competent municipality to propose, plan and carry out public cultural policies, in addition to ordering municipal expenses that finance the culture sector. In this sense, the main objective of the study is to undertake an analysis of municipal public funding related to the culture sector, between the years 2018 and 2021, in a previous period of time and during the Covid-19 pandemic, considering, for this, the examination carrying out cultural public policies implemented by municipal governments, through municipal funding, taking into account popular participation and the sustainability promoted by these actions and projects. From a methodological point of view, the research was developed from a theoretical framework based on the concepts of cultural public policy, public funding, popular participation and sustainability. Still in this context, the work was carried out based on a documentary study. Finally, it was observed that the municipality experienced advances in the financing of cultural policies, but only from the pandemic period onwards did popular participation effectively occur in terms of municipal financing. With all of the above, a paradigm shift is seen as necessary in terms of norms and management, so that there is a linkage of resources to the cultural sector, decisive participation of art and culture workers, through the proposition and deliberation of state policies that continue autonomously and also legitimately, representing the diversity that exists and resists in Juazeiro do Norte.

Arboviruses are a public health problem. In Brazil, dengue, chikungunya and zika stand out, transmitted to humans by female Aedes aegypti L mosquitoes. such as damage to the environment, to non-target species and the resistance of this mosquito strains to such products. Thus, the aim of this study was to carry out phytochemical prospecting and evaluate the larvicidal activity of Himatanthus drasticus latex extracts against A. aegypti. The extracts were obtained by macerating 5 g of latex powder concentrated separately in 100 mL of methanol, ethyl acetate and hexane solvents. Concentrations of 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 ppm of each extract were tested in triplicate with a pyriproxyfen solution as a positive control and distilled water and dimethylsulfoxide as a negative control. The phytochemical prospection of the methanolic extract showed the presence of phenolic compounds, such as anthocyanins, anthocyanidins, catechins, chalcones, aurones, leucoanthocyanidins and condensed tannins. The insecticidal bioactivity was more significant for the methanolic extract. The lethal concentrations (LC) of the 50 and 90% methanolic extract were 190.76 and 464.74 ppm, respectively. After 48 hours of exposure, extracts using methanol, ethyl acetate and hexane in their highest concentrations (500 ppm) caused larval mortality of 100, 73.33 and 66.67%, respectively. These extracts also promoted alterations in the external morphology of the larvae, such as damage to the anal papillae, darkening of the body and reduction in the number of bristles. The methanolic extract showed greater expressiveness for morphological alterations. H. drasticus latex has larvicidal activity against third instar larvae of A. aegypti and is more significant when obtained by maceration in methanol. The methanolic extract of H. drasticus latex contains phenolic compounds with insecticidal activity against A. aegypti larvae.

One of the major environmental problems of today in urban areas it is still the inadequate final destination of solid waste. the landfills controlled areas still continue to be a strong source of soil and water pollution, especially the superficial ones. The present work sought to evaluate the impact of the landfill controlled from Juazeiro do Norte – CE in the water quality of water bodies existing in its area of direct influence. The COD parameters were verified, OD, ST, EC, pH and T. From the physical-chemical analyzes it was observed that the parameters that measure water pollution such as COD and OD indicate the compromised of the water quality of the internal lagoon, with the OD well below the values established by CONAMA 357/05, while the water from the lagoon outside the area of waste disposal has a better quality when compared to ponds of the area inside the embankment. Thus indicating that the controlled landfill impacts the water surfaces in its waste disposal area. In Brazil, even with the determination of the closure of landfills by law 12.305/2010, which sanctioned the National Solid Waste Policy, there are serious issues involving aspects socioeconomic and environmental factors that make such closure difficult. In Juazeiro do Norte - EC, for example, since 2018, there has been an Area Recovery Plan Degraded (PRAD) for the area of the old landfill. Among the measures aimed at evaluation of the effectiveness of the performance of interventions adopted for the recovery of This area is for monitoring the quality of surface water. However, beyond this measure was only carried out in 2018, no more complete study has been carried out, nor proposed in the PRAD, to assess the socioeconomic conditions and demographic characteristics of the population living around the landfill area and waste pickers. recyclable waste. In this context, this research aimed to evaluate the socio-environmental degradation of the area of direct influence of the old dump in Juazeiro do North - EC. For this, hypsometry and flow direction maps were elaborated. superficial areas of the area, physical-chemical analyzes were performed (COD, OD, SD, pH, EC and T) in water samples collected in natural and manure lakes, located in the area of the landfill and its surroundings, and soil samples were collected from the said dump for analysis
of the TOC, C-labile, CSA, pH and EC parameters. For the statistical treatment of data obtained from the analyzes of water and soil samples, the PAST software was used. Forms containing questions related to the situation were also applied socioeconomic and work of recyclable waste pickers, and on issues social, health and well-being of residents adjacent to the landfill area. Starting from obtained results it was found that, in the dry season, the average values of COD in the leachate pond and in the natural pond inside the dump were characteristic of manure, with concentrations of 3,383mg/L and 1754.67 mg/L, respectively, while at the end of the rainy season, due to the dilution effect, the COD values significantly reduced (120 mg/L, manure pond and 42 mg/L, natural pond). Non-compliance of OD values with Resolution 357/2005 was also verified from CONAMA, for class 2 water bodies. Finally, it was verified that the quality of the soil, the health and quality of life of the population in the studied area were also heavily affected by the landfill. Another group that also felt the harmful effects of landfill were the collectors, who worked in subhuman conditions, exposed to various risks and exhausting working hours. This group of workers had their conditions worsened with the arrival of the Covid-19 pandemic, since it affected his income and his mental health.
