Continuous Monitoring of Suspended Particulate Matter in Tropical Inland Waters by High-Frequency, Above-Water Radiometry.

Water and sediment discharges can change rapidly, and low-frequency measurement devices might not be sufficient to elucidate existing dynamics. As such, above-water radiometry might enhance monitoring of suspended particulate matter (SPM) dynamics in inland waters. However, it has been barely applied for continuous monitoring, especially under partially cloudy sky conditions.

A spatiotemporal analysis of the physicochemical parameters after the operation of the Corumbá IV reservoir (Midwest Brazil) to support better management decision.

The study presents the characterization of the water quality of the Corumbá IV reservoir in the State of Goiás, in the Brazilian Cerrado biome, based on data from the operation period between 2007 and 2017. Few are known about the temporal and spatial variations in the water quality of the reservoir. Up to now, the water quality has been analyzed only from the point of view of compliance with the limits required by Brazilian environmental legislation.

Allocation of sanitary landfill in consortium: strategy for the Brazilian municipalities in the State of Amazonas.

One of the current problems faced by the Brazilian municipalities is the adequate disposal of municipal solid waste in landfills while considering the environmental dimension. In addition to the design and technical requirements, the analysis of possible sites is a process requiring an evaluation of different criteria. With the proposal to minimize and rationalize efforts for site selection, this paper presents a methodology to evaluate its suitability based on certain criteria (legal, technical, environmental).
