Such parallel systems is characterized by having two sources of sediment, the river and the sea. The study area comprises the Acu River estuary, located on the northern coast of Rio Grande do Norte State, in a region of intense economic activity, mainly focused on the exploration of oil onshore and offshore, likely to accidental spills. In the oil sector are developed for salt production, shrimp farming, agriculture, fisheries and tourism, which by interacting with sensitive ecosystems, such as estuaries, may alter the natural conditions, thus making it an area susceptible to contamination is essential in understanding the morphodynamic variables that occur in this environment to obtain an environmental license. Information about the submarine relief the estuaries are of great importance for the planning of the activity of environmental monitoring, development and coastal systems, among others, allowing an easy management of risk areas, and assist in the creation of thematic maps of the main aspects of landscape. Morphodynamic studies were performed in this estuary in different seasonal periods in 2009 to observe and quantify morphological changes that have occurred and relate these to the hydrodynamic forcing from the river and its interaction with the tides. Thus, efforts in this area is possible to know the bottom morphology through records of good quality equipment acquired by high resolution geophysical (side-scan sonar and profiler current by doppler effect). The combination of these data enabled the identification of different forms of bed for the winter and summer that were framed in a lower flow regime and later may have been destroyed or modified forms of generating fund scheme than the number according Froude, with different characteristics due mainly to the variation of the depth and type of sedimentary material they are made, and other hydrodynamic parameters. Thus, these features background regions are printed in the channel, sandy banks and muddy plains that border the entire area / Estu?rios s?o ambientes costeiros de vida ef?mera no tempo geol?gico, derivados do afogamento da linha de costa em fun??o da eleva??o relativa do n?vel do mar. Tal sistema par?lico se caracteriza por ter duas fontes de sedimentos, a fluvial e a marinha. A ?rea em estudo compreende o Estu?rio do rio A?u, localizado no litoral setentrional do estado do Rio Grande do Norte, que se encontra em uma regi?o de intensa atividade econ?mica, principalmente voltada ?s atividades de explora??o de petr?leo onshore e offshore, pass?veis de derrames acidentais. Al?m da atividade petrol?fera s?o desenvolvidas produ??o de sal marinho, carcinicultura, agricultura, pesca e turismo, que ao interagir com ecossistemas sens?veis, como no caso dos estu?rios, podem modificar as condi??es naturais, tornando assim uma ?rea suscept?vel a contamina??es sendo essencial o entendimento das vari?veis morfodin?micas que ocorrem nesse ambiente para obten??o de licenciamento ambiental. Informa??es a respeito do relevo submarino dos estu?rios s?o de grande import?ncia para o planejamento da atividade de monitoramento ambiental, evolu??o e din?mica costeira, entre outros, possibilitando num f?cil gerenciamento de ?reas de risco, al?m de ajudar na cria??o de mapas tem?ticos dos principais aspectos da paisagem. Estudos morfodin?micos foram realizados neste estu?rio em diferentes per?odos sazonais no ano de 2009 a fim de observar e quantificar as mudan?as morfol?gicas ocorridas e correlacion?-las com as for?antes hidrodin?micas proveniente da a??o fluvial, bem como sua intera??o com as mar?s. Desta forma, os trabalhos realizados nesta ?rea possibilitaram o conhecimento da morfologia de fundo atrav?s de registros de boa qualidade adquiridos por equipamentos geof?sicos de alta resolu??o (sonar de varredura lateral e perfilador de corrente por efeito doppler). A jun??o destes dados possibilitou a identifica??o de diferentes tipos de formas de leito para o per?odo de inverno e ver?o que antes eram enquadradas em um regime de fluxo inferior e que posteriormente podem ter sido destru?das ou modificadas gerando formas de fundo de regime superior segundo o n?mero de Froude, com caracter?sticas diferenciadas devido principalmente ? varia??o da profundidade e ao tipo de material sedimentar que s?o constitu?dos, al?m de outros par?metros hidrodin?micos. Desta forma, estas fei??es de fundo est?o impressas em regi?es de canal, bancos arenosos e plan?cies lamosas que margeiam toda ?rea

Gomes, Moab Praxedes 26 August 2008 (has links)
Made available in DSpace on 2015-03-13T17:08:20Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 MoabPG_Capa_ate_cap4.pdf: 4721288 bytes, checksum: 8d96436897c5c60721b2495b01dd20b0 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2008-08-26 / On the modern Continental Shelf to the north of Rio Grande do Norte state (NE Brazil) is located a paleo-valley, submerged during the last glacial sea-level lowstand, that marks continuation of the most important river of this area (A?u River). Despite the high level of exploration activity of oil industry, there is few information about shallow stratigraphy. Aiming to fill this gap, situated on the Neogene, was worked a marine seismic investigation, the development of a processing flow for high resolution data seismic, and the recognition of the main feature morphology of the study area: the incised valley of the River A?u. The acquisition of shallow seismic data was undertaken in conjunction with the laboratory of Marine Geology/Geophysics and Environmental Monitoring - GGEMMA of Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte UFRN, in SISPLAT project, where the geomorphological structure of the Rio paleovale A?u was the target of the investigation survey. The acquisition of geophysical data has been over the longitudinal and transverse sections, which were subsequently submitted to the processing, hitherto little-used and / or few addressed in the literature, which provided a much higher quality result with the raw data. Once proposed for the flow data was developed and applied to the data of X-Star (acoustic sensor), using available resources of the program ReflexW 4.5 A surface fluvial architecture has been constructed from the bathymetric data and remote sensing image fused and draped over Digital Elevation Models to create three-dimensional (3D) perspective views that are used to analyze the 3D geometry geological features and provide the mapping morphologically defined. The results are expressed in the analysis of seismic sections that extend over the region of the continental shelf and upper slope from mouth of the A?u River to the shelf edge, providing the identification / quantification of geometrical features such as depth, thickness, horizons and units seismic stratigraphyc area, with emphasis has been placed on the palaeoenvironmental interpretation of discordance limit and fill sediment of the incised valley, control by structural elements, and marked by the influence of changes in the sea level. The interpretation of the evolution of this river is worth can bring information to enable more precise descriptions and interpretations, which describes the palaeoenvironmental controls influencing incised valley evolution and preservation to provide a better comprehensive understanding of this reservoir analog system / Sobre a Plataforma Continental a norte do Estado do Rio Grande do Norte (NE do Brasil) est? localizado um paleovale submerso durante o ?ltimo glacial, que marca a continua??o do rio mais importante desta ?rea: o Rio A?u. Apesar do elevado n?vel de atividades de explora??o da ind?stria petrol?fera nessa regi?o, existe pouca informa??o sobre sua estratigrafia rasa. Visando suprir esta lacuna, situada acima do Ne?geno, realizou-se o levantamento s?smico de alta resolu??o com o perfilador de subfundo X-Star (chirp), o desenvolvimento de um fluxo de processamento para os dados levantados, e o reconhecimento da paelogeomorfologia da principal fei??o da ?rea de estudo: o vale inciso do Rio A?u. A aquisi??o dos dados s?smicos de alta resolu??o foi realizada em conjunto com o laborat?rio de Geologia e Geof?sica Marinha e Monitoramento Ambiental GGEMMA, da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte UFRN, atendendo ao projeto SISPLAT, onde a estrutura geomorfol?gica do paleovale do Rio A?u foi o alvo das investiga??es do levantamento. A aquisi??o dos dados geof?sicos deu-se ao longo de se??es longitudinais e transversais, que posteriormente foram submetidos ao processamento, at? ent?o pouco utilizado e/ou pouco abordado na literatura, o qual forneceu um resultado com qualidade muito superior ao dado bruto. Assim o fluxo proposto para dados foi desenvolvido e aplicado aos dados de X-Star (sensor ac?stico) utilizando os recursos dispon?veis do programa ReflexW 4.5. A arquitetura da superf?cie fluvial foi reproduzida a partir da integra??o de dados batim?tricos (pr?-existentes) e imagens LandSat 7, gerando um Modelo Digital do Terreno para visualiza??o tridimensional (3D), o qual foi utilizado para se fazer an?lises geom?tricas e correlacion?-las com a morfologia em subsuperf?cie. Os resultados s?o expressos na an?lise das se??es s?smicas que se estendem sobre a regi?o do Vale Inciso do Rio A?u em toda a plataforma continental, fornecendo a identifica??o/quantifica??o de aspectos geom?tricos como profundidade, espessura, superf?cies lim?trofes e unidades sismoestratigr?ficas, que descrevem uma palaeomorfologia controlada por elementos estruturais e marcada pela influ?ncia da varia??o do n?vel do mar e do regime fluvial do antigo Rio A?u. A interpreta??o da evolu??o desse vale inciso traz informa??es que permitam descri??es e interpreta??es mais precisas e forne?am subs?dios para a compreens?o de an?logos de reservat?rios.
