Marine benthic macrofauna and introduced species in the port area of PecÃm, CearÃ, Brazil. / Macrofauna bentÃnica marinha e espÃcies introduzidas na Ãrea portuÃria do PecÃm, estado do CearÃ-Brasil.Paulo de Tarso de Castro Miranda 28 November 2013 (has links)
nÃo hà / In the present work we performed a study and characterization of benthic macrofauna of the intertidal fringe of PecÃm beach between the years 2006 and
2011 in order to obtain information about the taxonomic diversity of species and deepen knowledge about the ecology of these organisms in the face of new environmental conditions imposed by the deployment of Marine Terminal of Port of PecÃm. Seventy-one taxa belonging to seven taxonomic groups: Porifera, Cnidaria, Mollusca, Annelida (Polychaeta), Arthropoda (Crustacea), Echinodermata and
Chordata were listed. Six species of marine benthic invertebrates introduced: the bivalve mollusc Isognomon bicolor, Donax gemmula and Heterodonax bimaculatus,
the crustacean Decapoda Charybdis hellerii and the polychaete Phragmatopoma caudata were listed. The species Phragmatopoma caudata, Donax gemmula and Heterodonax bimaculatus were classified as cryptogenic and Isognomon bicolor and Charybdis hellerii as exotic detected in the natural environment. Heterodonax bimaculatus is first recorded in the state of CearÃ, extending its distribution along the Brazilian coast. Specific preferences of benthic macrofauna in relation to the variability of substrates were found. This fact influences the composition and
distribution of taxa, has been identified a greater number of taxonomic groups (seven) in consolidated substrate when compared to taxonomic groups (three) identified in the unconsolidated substrate. There were no significant changes in the composition of local benthic macrofauna when compared to other coastal regions of the state. The quantitative fluctuations observed in populations seem to be related to a response of organisms to coastal dynamics, indicating an adaptive process of species to new environmental conditions of the area. It was observed a decrease in the average percentage of coverage of organisms in consolidated substrate, and there were no significant differences in the average number of organisms in
unconsolidated substrate between the years 2008 and 2011. With reference to the collect frequency (monthly, bimonthly and quarterly) was observed that the average
percentage of coverage of organisms in consolidated substrate and the average amount of organisms in unconsolidated substrate showed no significant differences
among the three study periods during the years 2008 and 2011. The quantitative and qualitative data obtained in this study suggest that the introduced species in the
intertidal fringe PecÃm beach have not, so far, caused significant impacts on local benthic macrofauna, although they may be considered as a potential threat to the
structure of these communities. Shipping accomplished through the Marine Terminal of Port of PecÃm seems to be the vector responsible for the introduction of new
species in local macrozoobenthos. / No presente trabalho foi realizado o levantamento e carac-terizaÃÃo da macrofauna bentÃnica da faixa entremarÃs da praia do PecÃm, no perÃodo de 2006 a 2011, com a finalidade de obter informaÃÃes sobre a diversidade taxonÃmica das espÃcies e aprofundar o conhecimento sobre a ecologia desses organismos frente Ãs novas condiÃÃes ambientais impostas pela implantaÃÃo do Terminal PortuÃrio do PecÃm. Foram identificados 71 tÃxons pertencentes a 7 grupos taxonÃmicos: Porifera, Cnidaria, Mollusca, Annelida (Polychaeta), Arthropoda (Crustacea), Echinodermata e Chordata. Como espÃcies introduzidas foram identificados os moluscos bivalves Isognomon bicolor, Donax gemmula e Heterodonax bimaculatus, o crustÃceo decÃpoda Charibdys hellerii e o poliqueta Phragmatopoma caudata. As espÃcies Phragmatopoma caudata, Donax gemmula e Heterodonax bimaculatus foram classificadas como criptogÃnicas e Isognomon bicolor e Charibdys hellerii como exÃticas detectadas em ambiente natural. Heterodonax bimaculatus à registrado pela primeira vez para o estado do CearÃ, ampliando sua distribuiÃÃo na costa brasileira. Foram constatadas preferÃncias especÃficas da macrofauna bentÃnica
com relaÃÃo à variabilidade dos substratos o que influencia na composiÃÃo e distribuiÃÃo dos tÃxons, tendo sido identificada uma maior quantidade de grupos taxonÃmicos (7) no substrato consolidado quando comparada aos grupos taxonÃmicos (3) identificados no substrato inconsolidado. NÃo foram observadas
alteraÃÃes significativas na composiÃÃo da macrofauna bentÃnica local quando comparada com a de outras localidades costeiras do estado. As flutuaÃÃes quantitativas observadas nas populaÃÃes parecem estar relacionadas a uma resposta dos organismos à dinÃmica costeira, indicando um processo adaptativo das espÃcies Ãs novas condiÃÃes ambientais da Ãrea. Foi verificado um decrÃscimo no percentual mÃdio de cobertura dos organismos no substrato consolidado, nÃo tendo
sido observado diferenÃas significativas na quantidade mÃdia de organismos no substrato inconsolidado entre os anos de 2008 e 2011. Com relaÃÃo à periodicidade de coleta (mensal, bimestral e trimestral) observou-se que o percentual mÃdio de
cobertura de organismos no substrato consolidado e a quantidade mÃdia de organismos no substrato inconsolidado nÃo apresentaram diferenÃas significativas entre os trÃs perÃodos analisados durante os anos de 2008 e 2011. Os dados
quantitativos e qualitativos obtidos nesse estudo sugerem que as espÃcies introduzidas na faixa entremarÃs da praia do PecÃm nÃo tÃm, atà o momento, causado impactos significativos na macrofauna local, embora possam ser consideradas como uma potencial ameaÃa à estrutura dessas comunidades. O transporte marÃtimo realizado atravÃs do Terminal PortuÃrio do PecÃm parece ser o vetor responsÃvel pela introduÃÃo de novas espÃcies no macrozoobentos local.

A methodology development for layout planning regarding gates in marine terminals : A case study in a Swedish portBerglund, Amanda, Altzar, Emelie January 2017 (has links)
Purpose: The research purpose is to, in a systematic way, build a method to develop suggestions regarding layout planning of gates in a marine terminal and additionally conduct a base for a simulation model. Approach: Firstly, a literature review has been conducted in the fields relevant to port security and gate configurations in marine terminals. Secondly, a case study has been executed in a Swedish marine terminal. The case study consisted of interviews and observations at the case company, who also provided this thesis with numerical raw data. Additionally, a benchmarking was conducted at a company in the same port area where interviews and observations was executed. Findings: The findings in this thesis resulted in a methodology improvement, which contains important procedure steps that need to be considered while conducting a layout for a gate in a marine terminal. The procedure resulted in a conceptual model that was conducted as a result of the literature review and verified by being tested in the case study. Limitation: The thesis is limited to one case company. Even though it verified and validated the findings, additional case companies are recommended to fully validate the conceptual model which applies for further research. Further limitations to this thesis is that the financial- and technical factors will not be executed. Theoretical implications: Companies who plans to increase the security in their marine terminal area or implement a new gate system can benefit from the findings. This thesis contributes to science by adding new theory. Practical implications: This thesis conducted a conceptual model for a layout procedure which recommends to follow while planning a layout for a gate in a marine terminal. The model were verified with a case company and provided two layout suggestions that can be implemented at the specific company.
