Located in Ipojuca, 50 km from Recife, Porto de Galinhas is one of the destinations in Pernambuco by national and international tourists throughout the year. During the formation of its territory, several modifications spatial, social, economic, and others, due to a local need and occurring later after the intense development of tourism. This change is mainly observed in the area near the beach, which initially consisted of a few fishermen's houses and now concentrates various services and equipment primarily geared to tourism. For purposes of the study, refers to the period 1970 to 2011, corresponding to the beginning of summer activities at the site until its consolidation as an international destination. There was the collection of primary and secondary data related to the theme of this work and comparison of these data with the indicators used and the theoretical points discussed in this study. Through research, it was observed that tourism has encouraged the economic dynamism and intense expansion of urban space in Porto de Galinhas, through the emergence and expansion of businesses and investment in basic infrastructure and tourism. However, their actions also resulted in an increase and population expansion, especially in peripheral areas and increasing socioeconomic disparities site, leading to a segregation of the site. / Esta dissertação tem o objetivo de compreender a influência do turismo na expansão do espaço urbano e no desenvolvimento local de Porto de Galinhas. Localizado no município de Ipojuca, a 50 km da capital pernambucana, Porto de Galinhas é um dos destinos mais procurados em Pernambuco por turistas nacionais e internacionais durante todo o ano. No decorrer da formação do seu território, Porto de Galinhas passou por diversas modificações espaciais, sociais, econômicas, entre outras, por uma necessidade local e ocorrendo, posteriormente, pelo intenso desenvolvimento do turismo. Esta mudança é observada principalmente na área próxima a praia, que inicialmente era constituída de poucas casas de pescadores e hoje concentra diversos serviços e equipamentos predominantemente voltados ao turismo. O estudo se reporta ao período de 1970 até 2011, correspondendo, ao início da atividade de veraneio no local até a sua consolidação como destino internacional. Houve a coleta de dados primários e secundários relacionados ao tema deste trabalho e o cruzamento destes dados com os indicadores utilizados e pontos discutidos no referencial teórico deste estudo. Através da pesquisa, foi observado que o turismo incentivou a dinamização econômica e a intensa expansão do espaço urbano em Porto de Galinhas, através do surgimento e ampliação de estabelecimentos comerciais e investimento na infraestrutura básica e turística. No entanto, sua atuação também resultou um aumento e expansão populacional, sobretudo das áreas periféricas e no aumento das disparidades socioeconômicas do local, levando a uma segregação socioespacial do local

O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar os aspectos quantitativos da água subterrânea (recarga, parâmetros hidráulicos e variáveis envolvidas para essa quantificação) no aqüífero freático de uma área intensamente urbanizada. Duas sub-bacias contíguas do rio Monjolinho (bacia do córrego do Gregório e bacia do córrego do Tijuco Preto), localizadas na região central do município de São Carlos - SP, foram escolhidas como área de estudo. As bacias cobrem um área de 22,8 Km2 e apresentam índice de impermeabilização total estimado de 72,5%. Para este estudo foi instalada uma rede de monitoramento permanente, composta por 20 piezômetros. Os dados de nível freático foram coletados com freqüência semanal no período de 1 ano hidrológico (fevereiro de 2004 a janeiro de 2005). Os métodos utilizados para a estimativa da recarga foram: Water Table Fluctuation (WTF) e aproximação Darcyana com base na variação do nível freático, e o balanço hídrico, utilizando dados de três estações hidrometeorológicas localizadas no interior dos limites das bacias. Os valores de condutividade hidráulica de cada piezômetro, utilizados na aproximação Darcyana, foram determinados com a técnica slug test, variando de 2,6.10-7 a 6,0.10-5 m/s. Os valores de rendimento específico, utilizados no método WTF, foram estimados pela equação empírica de Biecinski, com variação de 0,07 a 0,15. A recarga efetiva estimada pelo método WTF representou 16,4% da precipitação (1596,5 mm) ocorrida durante o ano hidrológico, enquanto que a recarga efetiva estimada pela aproximação Darcyana representou 16,3% da precipitação. No método do balanço hídrico foi obtida uma recarga potencial de 277,0 mm, equivalente a 17,4% do total de chuvas do ano hidrológico considerado. Os resultados apresentados fornecem subsídios para uso racional dos recursos hídricos subterrâneos, assim como incentivam o desenvolvimento de novas pesquisas na área de aqüíferos em centros urbanos. / The objective of this work was to evaluate groundwater recharge (rate, hydraulic parameters and related variables necessary for estimation) in an unconfined aquifer of a highly urbanized area. The study area is composed by two contiguous sub-basins (Gregório creek and Tijuco Preto creek) in córrego do Monjolinho basin, located in São Carlos (Brazil). The total area of these basins is 22.8 Km2 with an estimated impermeabilization coefficient of 72.5%. For this study a permanent monitoring network composed by 20 piezometers was constructed. Data collection was performed during one hydrologic year (February 2004 to January 2005). The recharge rate was estimated by water table fluctuation (WTF), Darcyan approach and water balance. The hydraulic conductivity, used as input in the Darcyan approach, was determined by slug tests performed in each piezometer, ranging from 2.6.10-7 m/s to 6.0.10-5 m/s. The specific yield, which is necessary for the WTF method, was evaluated using Biecinski\'s varying between 0.07 and 0.15. The recharge rate estimated by WTF amounts to 16.4% of the annual precipitation (1596.5 mm) observed in the considered hydrologic year, while the Darcyan approach indicates a rate of 16.3%. The water balance method, based on data obtained from three hydrometeorological stations located inside the watersheds, results in a potential recharge rate of 277.0 mm. This value represents 17.4% of the observed precipitation in the period. The results obtained in this work may be used as support to groundwater resources management in urban area or as reference for future research works in the field.

Do ponto de vista da história do tempo presente, aborda a construção de política pública municipal para a arte pública, desde a criação de lei de incentivo específica até as ações de repressão aos artistas de rua que levaram a proibição dos mesmos de ocuparem certos espaços urbanos. Este trabalho aborda ainda a questão da disputa de sentidos por parte do poder público em duas praças: a Praça XV de Novembro, ocupada no passado; e a Praça Bento Silvério, ocupada no presente por estes artistas. Além disso, por meio da história oral caracteriza percursos de artistas de rua em Florianópolis. Através da história destas duas praças, da legislação de incentivos à arte pública e, também, dos relatos dos artistas de rua, é possível perceber os incentivos e os limites para a arte pública na cidade de Florianópolis. / This dissertation is aimed at the study of some queries about the place of street art in the city of Florianopolis from the 1980s. From the perspective of the history of present time, it addresses the construction of the municipal public policy for public art, since the creation incentivizing laws for public art up to repressive measures against streets artists who were prohibited to presenting their work in some urban areas of the city. Also, through oral history characterizes street artists pathways of Florianópolis. This work also talks about the dispute of meanings from the government in two Town squares: the Praça XV de Novembro, which was used in the past; and the Praça Bento Silvério, which is now being used by these street artists. Through the history of these two Town squares, by the incentivizing laws for the public art and also, through reports made by these streets artists, it is possible to perceive the incentives and the limits towards the art in the city of Florianópólis.

The aim of this study is to establish the location of the urban areas with risk of flood in Itaqui/RS, located at the edges of the Uruguai River in Western RS. To achieve this goal a data base of flooding was organized with all the floods that occurred between the years 1980 to 2010. It was identified the part of the urban area susceptible to flooding by determining the level of hazard and the different aspects of vulnerability through the characteristic of occupations; finally from the correlation between the aspect of hazard and vulnerability, was determined the aspect of risk in the affected areas. The methodological procedures involved four steps: Theoretical base and data collection, analysis of natural and social conditions of the disaster, preparation of fundamental maps of hazard and vulnerability; and analysis of results, zoning and preparation of the risk map. The materials used were topographic map, satellite images, GPS, hydrological data and documents. With the results it was possible to estimate two levels of hazard, one related to recurrent floods that have defined areas of high hazard, and the other related to the extraordinary flood of 1983, which delimited the area of low hazard. The vulnerability has been established in three aspects from the constructive pattern of houses and public infrastructure. To sum up, it was possible to estimate four levels of risk from the correlation of the data. The results of this work may well help other research papers and allow planning proposals and planning urban infrastructure of Itagui-RS. Key words: Flood, Urban area, Zoning, Risk / Este trabalho tem por objetivo geral estabelecer o zoneamento das áreas de risco a inundação da área urbana do município de Itaqui-RS, localizado as margens do rio Uruguai na região oeste do RS. Para atingir este objetivo foi organizado um inventário sobre as inundações ocorridas entre os anos de 1980 a 2010; identificou-se a porção da área urbana suscetível à inundação determinando o grau de perigo e os diferentes graus de vulnerabilidade através das características das ocupações; finalmente, a partir da correlação entre o grau de perigo e vulnerabilidade, foi determinado o grau de risco das áreas afetadas. Os procedimentos metodológicos envolvem quatro etapas: fundamentação teórica e levantamento de dados; análise das condições naturais e sociais do desastre; elaboração dos mapas base do perigo e da vulnerabilidade e; análise dos resultados, zoneamento e elaboração do mapa de risco. Os materiais utilizados foram carta topográfica, imagens de satélite, GPS, dados hidrológicos e documentos. Os resultados possibilitaram estimar dois graus de perigo, um relacionado as inundações recorrentes que definiram as áreas de alto perigo, outro relacionado a inundação extraordinária de 1983, que delimitou a área de baixo perigo. A vulnerabilidade foi estabelecia em três graus a partir do padrão construtivo das residências e infraestrutura pública. Por fim, foi possível estimar quatro graus de risco a partir da correlação dos dados. Os resultados deste trabalho podem vir a auxiliar outros trabalhos de pesquisa e permitir propostas de planejamento e ordenamento da infraestrutura urbana de Itaqui.

This diploma thesis deals with a proposal and evaluation of stream restoration measures as an effective tool to achieve good ecological status within the requirements of the Water Framework Directive 2000/60/ES. The main aim of this diploma thesis is to propose stream restoration measures at the Lišanský Brook based on evaluation of hydromorphological status, analysis of land-use changes and anthropogenic modification of the river basin, runoff and water quality assessment. Attention is also paid to the evaluation of the restoration measures in the selected localities on Botič and Litovický Brook. The main method used for the design and assessment of stream restoration measures is a field survey using the HEM methodology (Langhammer, 2014). Land-use analysis and stream adjustment analysis are based on available historical maps. Based on the results, Lišanský Brook is evaluated as moderately modified. The entire river basin is an intensively farmed landscape that has been affected by inappropriate anthropogenic modifications. To improve the current unsuitable stream conditions, it would be convenient to apply complete restoration measures on Lišanský Brook. Keywords: Stream, restoration, habitat, diversity, urban area, rural landscape

This study explored how social aspects for stakeholder engagement are being addressed and incorporated in climate action plans (CAPs). This focus was chosen to address the knowledge gap in research on social conditions for climate action which has been found to provide barriers to achieving deep decarbonisation. The thesis conducted a case study of two cities, Copenhagen (Denmark) and Stockholm (Sweden). Each city’s CAP was analysed through a thematic document analysis that explored through what measures each city aim to achieve stakeholder engagement for local climate action.    Five overarching themes were identified through a literature review and used as an analysis framework: citizen engagement, private sector engagement, stakeholder collaboration, awareness development and advocacy. For both CAPs, the results showed an extensive variation for measures that contributed to each theme. The main findings were that measures should focus on developing collaborations, partnerships, networks, knowledge, awareness, skills, green procurement policies and stricter environmental regulations to support the level of stakeholder engagement needed for deep decarbonisation. Also, to focus on advocation measures, as well as measures aimed at developing knowledge and support to accelerate systematic change. In addition, it was found that cities need to focus on ensuring higher levels of equity and formalize extended citizen involvement for more inclusive and fair transitions. Findings also highlighted similarities and differences between the two CAPs, what lessons could be learned from these and connected these findings to how climate action could be further developed.

Separating household waste into fractions at source is a common method of household waste collection in most European countries. In 1994 Sweden introduced producer liability legislation for packaging, which requires householders to sort, clean and recycle different types of packaging waste. The recycling behaviour of householders is complex and diverse and has been widely investigated. However, the recycling behaviour of householders living in multicultural urban areas has received less attention. Therefore, little is known about the recycling behaviour and attitudes of the ethnic minorities that comprise a sizeable proportion of many urban populations. This thesis examined recycling behaviour among multicultural householders in the urban area of Järva, north-west Stockholm, Sweden, which is home to a significant proportion of immigrants from different parts of the world. Three practical studies were conducted on the recycling behaviour of householders, with data collected through literature reviews, field screening studies for relevant cases, postal surveys and in-depth interviews with householders. A meta-analysis of studies on householder recycling behaviour published in the period 1990-2010 provided a conceptual framework for explaining recycling behaviour. It also revealed some specific features of the determining factors of recycling behaviour among householders in multicultural urban areas. For example, despite self-reported high levels of environmental concern among multicultural respondents in Järva, recycling behaviour was not determined by this factor but by attitudes towards recycling. The data also showed that the most widespread reason for participating in recycling schemes was acceptance of legal norms. The interview study indicated that providing clear, understandable and easily accessible written information in ethnic languages, supported by “word-of-mouth” information, would probably increase participation by Järva householders in recycling schemes. However, lifestyle and the ethnic origins of householders also influenced their waste generation and recycling behaviour. The methodological improvements presented here can help develop future strategies targeted at increasing the waste management behaviour of the important multicultural urban group, while also ensuring that limited resources are effectively used. / La separación de la basura doméstica en fracciones en el lugar donde se genera es uno de los métodos más comunes de recogida en la mayoría de países europeos. En 1994 se introdujo una ordenanza en Suecia sobre la responsabilidad del productor en el empaquetado. Esta ordenanza encomienda a los habitantes de las viviendas a clasificar los residuos, limpiarlos y clasificarlos en diferentes tipos. El comportamiento hacia el reciclaje de los habitantes es complejo y diverso al igual que otros comportamientos mediombientales y ha sido investigado en numerosas ocasiones. Desafortunadamente, este comportamiento cara al reciclaje en áreas urbanas multiculturales ha recibido poca atención y se conoce poco sobre la actitud hacia el reciclaje de las minorías étnicas que forman parte de la población urbana de Suecia. Esta tesis examina el comportamiento hacia el reciclaje entre los habitantes de una zona urbana multicultural del Noroeste de Estocolmo, Järva, en Suecia, en la que residen una proporción significante de inmigrantes procedentes de diferentes partes del mundo. Se han llevado a cabo tres estudios prácticos sobre el comportamiento hacia el reciclaje incluyendo datos recogidos en la bibliografía revisada, estudios de campo en algunos casos relevantes, encuestas a través de correo ordinario y entrevistas en profundidad con los habitantes. Los resultado del meta-análisis realizado sobre la actitud hacia el reciclaje publicados durante el periodo 1990-2010 indican un marco conceptual para la explicación de las formas de reciclaje. Sin embargo, los resultados de nuestro estudio revelan algunas especificidades en factores sobre el reciclaje en los habitantes de zonas multiculturales. Nuestros datos demuestran que, a pesar de un elevado nivel de compromiso medioambiental según las respuestas de los habitantes de Järva, el reciclaje no está determinado por este factor. Al contrario, las actitudes hacia el reciclaje tienen una correlación positiva y determinan los comportamientos entre los habitantes de Järva. Se ha demostrado que la principal razón para reciclar es la legalidad vigente. Los resultados de las entrevistas sugieren que una oferta clara, comprensible y de fácil acceso redactada en las diferentes lenguas de los grupos étnicos al igual que apoyada por la información transmitida “boca a boca” influiría en la participación de los habitantes de Järva. Los resultados han puesto de manifiesto que el estilo de vida y la diversidad étnica de la población influyen en la generación de residuos y el reciclaje. Esta tesis contribuye a un desarrollo metodológico que será útil para el futuro desarrollo de estrategias orientadas en la gestión de residuos al igual que asegurar un uso eficiente de los recursos. / Разделение бытовых отходов является распространенным методом сбора бытовых отходов в большенстве европейских стран.  В 1994 году Швеция ввела законодательную ответственность производителей упаковки, которая включает требование раздельной сортировки упаковочного материяла населением для последующей ее переработки. Вопрос мотивации и участия населения в раздельном сборе бытовых отходов является сложным и многосторонним и был широко исследован. Тем не менее исследованию поведения и мотивации жителей многокультурных городских районов уделялось значительно меньше внимания. Мало что известо о мотивах участия в раздельном сборе бытовых отходов в отношении этнических меньшинств, которые составляют значительную часть городских мегаполисов. Данный тезис рассматривает мотивацию и участие населения в раздельном сборе бытовых отходов в многокультурном городском районе Järva, расположенном на северо-западе Стокгольма (Швеция). Järva  явлается домом для большого числа иммигрантов из разных частей мира. Было проделанно три исследования по изучению участия населения в раздельном сборе бытовых отходов. Данные были собраны с помощью обозрений опубликованной литературы, непосредственного изучения поведения населения, анкетирования и развернутых интервью. С помощью мета-анализа литературы опубликованной в период с 1990 по 2010 годы были выделены концептуальные основы для обьяснения участия населения в раздельном сборе бытовых отходов. Также были выявлени характерные черты определяющие мотивы для участия населения из многонациональных городских районов. Не смотря на выявленный высокий уровень экологической обеспокоенности среди населения многокультурного района  Järva, участие в раздельном сборе мусора не определяется этим фактором. Тогда как персональная мотивация по отношению к  вторичной переработки отходов является движущим фактором к участию. Наиболее распространенной причиной для участия в раздельном сборе отходов стало принятие населением многокультурного района правовых норм. Интервью показали, что доступность ясной, краткой информации на национальных языках, так же как и передающаяся 'из уст в уста' информация увеличивает процент участия населения в раздельном сборе отходов. Тем не менее образ жизни и этническое происхождение влияет на состав произведенных населением отходов и их отношение к вторичной переработке. Результаты проведенных исследований направленны на усовершенствование будущих стратегий по привлечению населения многокультурных городских районнов к участию в раздельном сборе отходов, а также обеспечение того, что бы ограниченные ресурсы были использованны эффективно. / <p>QC 20120927</p>

Noise is a growing health concern as urban residents increases rapidly and more reports of noise causing sleep disturbances and increasing the risk of cardiovascular health problems are published. Noise has a negative influence on life quality. This life quality deficiency also shows in housing and office pricing in noisy environments. Housing and office prices are often higher in quiet areas than in noisy areas. Therefore noise is both a health issue and has big economic consequences. The biggest contributor to the road traffic noise is the tire/road noise at speeds above 50km/h. Therefore this is an important aspect to monitor and the problem has to be alleviated. In this thesis the client Ramböll has gotten many contracts concerning the state of the roads from governmental institutes. As a part of the evaluation of the roads they want to implement the noise emission as a factor. This gives the government institutions another parameter that helps in the decision of which part of the road network to refurbish first. In the effort to decide what is best way for Ramböll to measure noise a new setup for measuring noise has been developed. The most used ways of measuring tire/road-noise is the close proximity (CPX) -method and the statistical pass-by (SPB) -method. These methods both give accurate results but they have drawbacks. The SPB measurements are time consuming and only give noise levels for a small patch of a road. CPX measurement on the other hand require costly and time consuming development of a measurement trailer. Certifying the trailer and maintenance work of it is expensive. So this report shows a first step in how to build a measurement setup and what aspects were taken into consideration when it was designed. A close proximity measurement setup in the form of a tube with a microphone placed inside it was built and installed underneath the measurement vehicle. The  measurement setup designed and built was named the Tube-CPX measurement setup in this report. The measurements performed with this Tube-CPX measurement setup show promising results. Similarities between CPX measurement setup and the Tube-CPX setup have been found both in the frequency spectrum as well as in the relation with pass-by measurement noise levels. The repeatability of the Tube-CPX measurements is even better than the compared CPX measurements. Although results are promising more work is required before the Tube-CPX setup can be seen in operation at Ramböll. In particular the question which source causes which sound pressure is required to understand the measured levels. And also more controlled pass-by measurements have to be performed to determine the relation of the absolute values measured at the tire/road impact spot to the values that are most interesting, namely the sound pressure levels that the human at the side of the road depicts.

The main goal of the work was to modify Tereza Nováková street due to the extension of the tram line towards the planned graveyard, including the design of the tram line itself. One variant has been elaborated in detail, with alternative variants being shown in sample cross-sections.

The existing railway station "Brno-Kralove pole" is the second largest railway station in Brno, which has about 10,000 passengers daily, and serves for transfers between different modes of transport. The building of the existing Brno-Kralovo Pole railway station is located in front of a high-speed bridge and there aren't much space for situating of the new transfer center. In the framework of the reconstruction of the existing railway station, was created a complex reconstruction, combined with the improvement of the internal arrangement of the building. The reconstruction of building was made according to modern quality standards of transport and passenger comfort.
