DEMOGRAFIA DE COMUNIDADES FLORESTAIS COM PREDOMÍNO DA Dodonaea viscosa Jacq. / DEMOGRAPHICS OF FOREST COMMUNITIES WITH PREDOMINANCE OF THE Dodonaea viscosa Jacq.Biali, Leonardo Job 24 February 2012 (has links)
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / A gradual increase of the areas abandoned for the farming one is occurring. These
areas are occupied for a arboreal vegetation with a strong presence of pioneers species. This
study was accomplished in the city of Encruzilhada do Sul, in abandoned areas that present
forestry communities in initial to medium training of regeneration, with predominance of
Dodonaea viscosa Jacq. on vegetation. The purpose was to characterize these natural
populations, aiming at to supply subsidies to the forestry management of Dodonaea viscosa
Jacq. For this, it was accomplished the floristic and structural analysis of the population, as
well as, some parameters like heating value and macronutrients of wood. To the structural
analysis 52 sub-parcels were installed and to the study of heating value, specific mass and
constituents of wood 13 trees were cut down, of which disks were collected. The fragment is
composed for a small number of species based basically in species of pioneering habit,
without indications of the forest to be converging to a more advanced sucessional training.
The species presents a high energetic production, with raised carbon text in the wood, what it
leads to the use of the forest in the payment for environmental services. The nutrients present
in the wood indicate that the exploration of the species can have consequences in mid-term
and long-term, having to be considered in the planning of the activities. / Está ocorrendo um gradual aumento das áreas abandonadas pela agropecuária. Estas
são ocupadas por uma vegetação arbórea com forte presença de espécies pioneiras. O estudo
foi realizado no município de Encruzilhada do Sul, em áreas abandonadas que apresentem
comunidades florestais em estágio inicial a médio de regeneração, com predomínio da
Dodonaea viscosa Jacq. na vegetação. O objetivo foi caracterizar estas populações naturais,
visando fornecer subsídio ao manejo florestal da Dodonaea viscosa Jacq. Para isso, foi
realizada a análise florística e estrutural do povoamento, assim como, determinado parâmetros
como poder calorífico e macronutrientes da madeira. Para análise da estrutura foram
instaladas 52 sub-parcelas e para o estudo do poder calorífico, massa específica e constituintes
da madeira foram abatidas 13 árvores, das quais foram coletados discos. O fragmento é
composto por um pequeno número de espécies, baseados basicamente em espécies de habito
pioneiro, sem indício de a floresta estar convergindo para um estágio sucessional mais
avançado. A espécie apresenta uma alta produção energética, com elevado teor de carbono na
madeira, o que remete ao uso da floresta no pagamento por serviços ambientais. Os nutrientes
presentes na madeira indicam que a exploração da espécie pode ter consequencias no médio e
longo prazo, devendo ser considerado no planejamento das atividades.

"Play up, play up, and play the game" : public schools and imperialism in British and South Asian diasporic literatureMurtuza, Miriam Rafia 20 October 2010 (has links)
This dissertation examines literary representations of the intersection between British imperialism and British and British-modeled public schools. I categorize British writers who have addressed this nexus in their literary works into two groups, idealists and realists, based on their views of British public schools, imperialism, and the effectiveness of the former in sustaining the latter. I present two examples of idealists, Henry Newbolt and the contributors to The Boy's Own Paper, followed by two examples of realists, Rudyard Kipling and E. M. Forster, who have often been viewed as opposites. I then provide an example of a South-Asian diasporic realist, Selvaduari, who builds upon the critiques of British realists by revealing the contemporary offspring of the marriage between British public schools and imperialism. By analyzing works by idealist and realist authors, I demonstrate the importance of public schools and school literature in promoting and sustaining as well as critiquing and condemning imperialism. / text
