Ecology and conservation of cetaceans in the waters between Angola and the Gulf of Guinea, with focus on the Atlantic humpback dolphin (Sousa teuszii)Weir, Caroline R. January 2011 (has links)
Part one of this thesis examined the tropical oceanic cetacean community occurring between Togo and Angola (6°N-11°S latitude). Twenty-two cetacean species were recorded during 5905.3 hr of dedicated survey effort from platforms of opportunity between 2004 and 2009. Sperm whales (<i>Physeter macrocephalus</i>) and humpback whales (<i>Megaptera novaeangliae</i>) were the most frequently-sighted species, and exhibited significant differences in occurrence related to water depth and survey month. Five species inhabited both neritic and oceanic waters, while the remainder were exclusively oceanic. The habitat preferences and niches (based on depth, seabed slope, sea surface temperature (SST) and frontal strength) of eight species were examined using classification trees and a principle component analysis. Water depth and SST appeared to be the primary variables (of those examined) explaining the presence of most species. Part two of the thesis was a study of the Atlantic humpback dolphin (<i>Sousa teuszii</i>), a species endemic to nearshore eastern tropical Atlantic (ETA) waters. A total of 1,626.8 km of boat- and vehicle-based effort in Namibe Province during 2008, produced 52 <i>S. teuszii </i>sightings. Further sightings were recorded during 53.7 hr of shore-effort at Flamingos (<i>n</i>=6) and opportunistically (<i>n</i>=13). Ten individuals were photo-identified. Multiple resightings (and an absence of unmarked animals) indicated low abundance, high site fidelity and year-round occurrence. <i>Sousa teuszii </i>produced simple (85% had a single inflection point) whistles in the 2.5-23.4 kHz fundamental frequency range and broadband click trains with repetition rates varying from 5.8-250.8 clicks/s. The implications of the findings for the future monitoring and conservation of cetaceans in the ETA are discussed.

Population status and habitat use of Indian Ocean humpback dolphins (sousa plumbea) along the south coast of South AfricaConry, Danielle Shanè January 2017 (has links)
Long-lived, top-level predators, such as some marine mammals, serve as important indicators of ecosystem health. Assessing the abundance and habitat use of such marine top predators is essential for the formulation of effective conservation and management actions. There is considerable concern over the viability of small humpback dolphin opulations across a global scale and a number of studies have raised concerns over their vulnerability to extinction. In light of the recent uplisting of Indian Ocean humpback dolphins (Sousa plumbea) to ‘Endangered’ on the South African Red Data list, there is an urgent need for a greater understanding of the abundance and spatial distribution of this species along the South African coastline. Using small vessels as survey platforms between March 2014 and June 2015, this study attempted to determine the abundance, spatial distribution and habitat preferences of Indian Ocean humpback dolphins along 150 km of South Africa’s south coast. A further aim was to assess the utilisation of the current Marine Protected Area network by humpback dolphins along this coastline relative to areas outside of formal protection. Mark-recapture methods applied to photo-identification data produced abundance estimates of 84 individuals (95% CI: 72-115) within the study area for both open and closed models. An average group size of 3.94 individuals (range 1-12; SD = ± 2.82) was observed during the study, indicating a decrease in average group size of ~45 % from a previous assessment in 2002/03. Such a decline in group size could potentially be a result of a change in social structure in response to reduced prey availability. Spatial analyses of humpback dolphin geographic positions, using a kernel density estimator (KDE) and effort-weighted density grid analyses, indicate that the species is unevenly distributed over the coastal zone within the area. Sightings occurred at the highest densities within Buffels Bay and along Goukamma MPA, followed by Plettenberg Bay, Nature’s Valley, and around the Bloukrans, Elandsbos and Groot River East mouths. Habitat preference was assessed using a standard classification-based method and the results indicate a strong preference, in particular, for Dissipative Intermediate Sandy Coast habitat, followed by Very Exposed Rocky Coast, Intermediate Sandy Coast, Estuarine Shore, Mixed Shore and Inshore Reef habitats. Areas of high humpback dolphin densities appear to be associated with these habitat types, especially with Dissipative-Intermediate Sandy Coast habitat. Humpback dolphins were sighted at relatively low densities along stretches of coastline consisting predominately of Exposed Rocky Shore habitat. Long expanses of this habitat type may limit humpback dolphin movements along the coast. The observed patterns in distribution and habitat preferences may be linked to the availability of prey and/or the avoidance of predators. Average sightings per kilometer travelled (SPUE) indicate that the utilisation of the Robberg and Tsitsikamma MPAs by humpback dolphins was low, most likely due to the low availability of sandy coastline in these areas. In contrast, the utilisation of the Goukamma MPA, which is characterised by a high availability of Dissipative-Intermediate Sandy Coast, was very high. The low population numbers and declines in average group size of Indian Ocean humpback dolphins within the study area warrant concern and call for effective conservation and management measures. In light of ever-increasing levels of anthropogenic threats to coastal areas, future research and long-term monitoring of the population is essential to broaden our knowledge of the species and to detect population trends.

Previous issue date: 2006-01-01 / This History Master s Dissertation tried to make a re-reading of Cruz e Souza s life experience. The
current paper has as its main purpose to understand his way of life, his limits and his attempts of
social mobility. Cruz e Souza lived in a period of time were there were deep changes both in the
political and social contexts. His disappointment with the society of that period has become into
poetry. His poetry has earned important space in the research field and a decadentist symbolist
aesthetic was the way he founded to better express this disappointment. The letters he wrote to his
friends and relatives were also used in the research, since they enabled us to perceive his dreams,
desires, expectations and frustrations.
The course of his life worked as a guide that led us to understand the contradictions, the
ambiguities, the possibilities and the limitations concerning to the attempts of social mobility of a free
black man living in a period of time marked by discussions about the end of the slavery and the
establishment of the Republic .
In the first chapter, we tried to make a brief introduction about Cruz e Souza and his family, his
first years as a poet in Desterro / Florianopolis, his relationship with the city as well as its
organization and urban modernization process.
In the second chapter, we emphasize the poet s networking in the society during his youth,
where theater and sessions with readings and discussions of philosophy and literary news as well
as the literary soirees were responsible for gathering this little group of young people.
In the third and last chapter, we analyze Cruz e Souza in Rio de Janeiro, his new social circle,
the publication of his main works, his search for a room in the world of poetry and the beginning of a
group of symbolist poets identified by their decadentist aesthetic / O tema desta dissertação de mestrado em História procurou fazer uma re-leitura da
experiência de vida de Cruz e Sousa. O presente trabalho tem como idéia central, compreender
sua trajetória de vida e os limites da Modernidade. Cruz e Sousa viveu em um período marcado
por profundas mudanças no contexto político e social. Sua poesia ocupou lugar importante na
pesquisa, bem como, suas cartas a amigos e familiares, pois através delas nos foi possível
perceber seus sonhos, desejos, expectativas e desencantos.
Sua trajetória de vida foi adotada como fio condutor, que nos permitiu compreender as
contradições, as ambigüidades, as possibilidades e as limitações às tentativas de mobilidade social
de um homem livre de cor vivendo em um período marcado pelas discussões em torno do fim do
trabalho escravo e da instauração da República.
No capítulo inicial, procuramos fazer uma rápida apresentação de Cruz e Sousa e sua
família, os primeiros anos do poeta em Desterro/Florianópolis, sua relação com a cidade, como
esta cidade estava organizada e os processos de remodelamento de seu espaço urbano.
No segundo capítulo, procuramos destacar o círculo de sociabilidade do poeta durante sua
juventude, onde a atividade teatral, os encontros para leitura e discussão das novidades filosóficas
e literárias, bem como os sarais literários foram os principais aglutinadores desse pequeno grupo
de jovens.
No terceiro e último capítulo procuramos analisar Cruz e Sousa na cidade do Rio de
Janeiro, o circulo de sociabilidade construído na Capital Federal, a publicação de suas principais
obras, sua busca por uma colocação e a formação de um grupo de poetas simbolistas
identificados com uma estética decadentista

Previous issue date: 2016-06-22 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / Construída por intensa mobilização social, a Educação do Campo busca consolidar políticas públicas e ações comunitárias de educação que reconheçam, construam e trabalhem em sintonia com os conhecimentos dos povos do Campo e promovam uma conscientização social global e a autonomia dos sujeitos sociais pela via da emancipação. No Brasil, uma das suas conquistas foi a implementação do Programa de Apoio à Formação Superior em Licenciaturas em Educação do Campo (PROCAMPO), que tem como um de seus princípios as Alternâncias Educativas e que garantiu a criação da Licenciatura em Educação do Campo da Universidade Federal de Viçosa (LICENA) iniciada em 2014. Tendo isso em vista, esta pesquisa visou compreender o modo como realizou-se o processo inicial de implementação desta Licenciatura, analisando-o a partir de suas relações com o conceito de emancipação social na forma como abordado por Boaventura de Sousa Santos. Para tanto, realizou-se um Estudo de Caso qualitativo a partir de observações participantes junto às reuniões de planejamento pedagógico e às atividades realizadas em seu primeiro semestre, especialmente àquelas denominadas Colocação em Comum. Complementarmente, consultou-se documentos de registro da equipe de professores. Concluiu-se nas análises que a LICENA constituiu-se, naquele momento, como uma emergência emancipatória promotora de ações que tiveram relações com as dimensões ética, política e estética do novo senso comum, fortaleceram o conhecimento-emancipação e promoveram a tradução intercultural e a ecologia de saberes. Assim, acredita-se que a LICENA seja um movimento educativo realizado a partir de uma epistemologia alternativa, guardando relações estreitas com as prerrogativas da promoção da emancipação social na transição paradigmática. / Built by intense social mobilization, the Rural Education seeks to strengthen public policies and community education actions that recognize, build and work in harmony with the knowledge of the rural people and promote global social awareness and autonomy of social subjects by means of emancipation. In Brazil, one of his achievements was the implementation of the Program of Support for Higher Education in Rural Education Graduation (PROCAMPO) who have as one of its principles the Alternancy Education and ensured the creation of the Rural Education Graduation on Federal University of Viçosa, started in 2014. Bearing this in mind, this research aimed to understand how there was the initial implementation process of this Graduation, analyzing its relations with the concept of social emancipation in the way approached by Boaventura de Sousa Santos. Therefore, we carried out a qualitative case study per participant observations with the educational staff meetings and activities in their first semester, especially those called Startup Common. In addition, were used registration documents of the teaching staff. It was concluded in the analysis that LICENA constituted, at that time, as a emancipatory emergency it promotes actions that had relations with the ethical, political and aesthetic dimensions of the new common sense, strengthened knowledge-emancipation and promoted intercultural translation and ecology of knowledge. Thus, we believed that LICENA is an educational movement performed from an alternative epistemology, keeping close relations with the prerogatives of the promotion of social emancipation in the paradigmatic transition.

Previous issue date: 1979 / A bacia morfológica de Sousa constitui parte de uma bacia sedimentar cretácea,
situada no sertão semi-árido da Paraíba.
As características do modelado estão na dependência de influências variadas, tais
como: litologia e estrutura, tipo de clima, vegetação, além de fatores relacionados à ação da
tectônica.
Durante o Cenozóico, a bacia de Sousa esteve subordinada a processos de
aplainamento sob a influência de climas semi-áridos que, entretanto, nem sempre atuaram
com o mesmo rigor sobre a região.
É provável que os períodos de seca mais acentuada estejam relacionados com os
fenômenos das glaciações quaternárias, as quais atingiram as latitudes mais altas.
Os processos morfogenéticos característicos dessa área variaram de intensidade
consoante o sabor das flutuações climáticas. Evidências de fases semi-áridas acentuadas são
encontradas nos terraços com cascalheiras, nos colúvios e nos glacis, observados no interior
da bacia. Ao contrário, nos períodos em que essa tendência se atenuava, havia dissecação dos
pedimentos e fenômenos de laterização.
Métodos sedimentológicos e geomorfológicos foram utilizados para análise da
paisagem física atual com base nos quais se pode inferir sobre os principais acontecimentos
da história cenozóica da bacia.

Previous issue date: 2009 / Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico / Dois escritores no Brasil são basilares para se compreender a relação etnia e
literatura. Ambos cravaram um marco na cultura brasileira, em relação à
reivindicação de reconhecimento das chamadas minorias sociais, no que toca à
visibilidade e ao direito de ser. Era o primeiro passo para que, aproximadamente
meio século mais tarde, outras frentes reivindicatórias se lançassem em busca do
não esvaziamento e não reificação da cultura e do sujeito negros. Cruz e Sousa e
Lima Barreto, um por via da metáfora transfiguradora, outro pela crítica acérrima,
fustigaram a sociedade estampando-lhe, em rosto, aquilo que ela insistia em pôr sob
o tapete: a existência do negro vilipendiado pelo preconceito sócio-racial, carente,
por direito, de status humano. Este trabalho busca analisar comparativamente a obra
de Cruz e Sousa e Lima Barreto, no que concerne à maneira de posicionar-se diante
do racismo enfrentado, por ambos, na sociedade, a partir de traços presentes na
própria obra; ao mesmo tempo em que tenta explicitar a diferença como um e outro
enfrentaram o problema. Ele procura também apontar, no texto, elementos
característicos que marcaram os dois escritores pelo preconceito sofrido e como isso
passou para a obra. Por esse viés, tenta mostrar que o texto literário não é somente
um objeto artístico, mas, por ser um produto humano, é atravessado pelas
experiências do autor. Por fim, este trabalho ainda busca demonstrar porque os dois
autores são atuais e, portanto precisariam ser revisitados com o cuidado em captar o
aporte de suas análises críticas. Isto, tendo em vista a atualidade e pujança do tema
abordado, bem como a qualidade artística de ambas as obras
