    Accumulation by Land Rent and Territorial Disputes in a Brazilian Agricultural Frontier
    (2022-01-01) Fernandes, Bernardo Mançano [UNESP]; Frederico, Samuel [UNESP]; Pereira, Lorena Izá [UNESP]; Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)
    Land grabbing has changed the agrarian question on a world scale, much more intensely from the first decade of the twenty-first century with the financialisation of agriculture, producing the global agrarian question. In Brazil, a new ‘administrative region’—MATOPIBA—was created mainly to meet the territorialised interests of financial capital in the production of flexible commodities.

    Variability of annual rainfall in São Paulo Metropolitan Region (RMSP) and Cantareira System: classification and frequency of the standard-years
    (2019-01-01) Fontão, Pedro Augusto Breda [UNESP]; Zavattini, João Afonso [UNESP]; Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)
    This study aims to establish standard-years and extreme-years of rainfall (wet and dry) through a research evaluating the variability of the annual precipitations in the Metropolitan Region of São Paulo (MRSP), the largest urban cluster in the southern hemisphere of the planet, and in the Cantareira System, main system of urban water supply of the metropolis of São Paulo. Identifying 'standard-years', especially extreme periods, contributes to discern periods of irregularities in the atmospheric circulation, making it possible to proceed with a more detailed analysis of the rainfall rhythm. Therefore, rainfall data from the historical serie from 1985 to 2014 were used. After collecting, organizing and mapping the data, the method of Sturge's formula was applied to assign the ranges of data representing the volume of rainfall and the method of geostatistical interpolation of ordinary kriging was applied to map the data. From the results obtained, analyzes were carried out on the temporal and spatial variability of the precipitations, making it possible, for both regions, to classify each of the 30 years of the period as: dry, tending to dry, habitual, tending to rainy or rainy. It stands out the existence of some years with the dissimilar pattern between the MRSP and the Cantareira System, resulting in possible impacts on human activities.

    The Political Economy of Territory and Agribusiness in Brazil
    (Springer, 2017-01-01) Frederico, Samuel [UNESP]; Almeida, Marina Castro de; Melgaco, L.; Prouse, C.; Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP); Fed Univ Triangulo Mineiro UFTM
    This chapter aims to demonstrate how the notion of political economy of territory, proposed by Milton Santos, aids in the interpretation of spatial dynamics of Brazilian agribusiness at the beginning of the 21st century. Among the many territorial expressions of agricultural dynamics, this article analyzes the dialectical relationship between the 'centrifugal forces', exemplified by the spatial dispersion of modern agriculture, and the 'centripetal forces', represented by the centralization of production control especially in the metropolis of Sao Paulo. Since the Brazilian exchange crisis of 1999, state policy to stimulate export of agricultural products, linked with the interests of the main representatives of agribusiness (large producers and corporations), has resulted in the accelerating expansion of the agricultural frontier, especially with soybean production in savanna areas. However, concomitant with the territorial dispersion of production, the centralization of capital and the increasing influence of finance and information for the development of modern agriculture have reinforced the command function of the main national metropolis.

    Futebol, negócio e globalização: clubes brasileiros na nova era do multi-club ownership
    (Universidade de São Paulo, 2022-12-29) Santos, Irlan Simões; Ferreira, Jonathan [UNESP]; Pisani, João Ricardo; Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp)
    Soccer has acquired new forms of organization in a period marked by the technical-scientific-informational milieu, in which companies become globalized. The appropriation of local soccer clubs by global companies and businessmen is one of such forms. Often, these businesses own more than one club, a process known as MCO (multi-club ownership). US-based private capital has considerably increased its interest in soccer worldwide and has channeled large investment into the sport. In Brazil, the sales of 90% ofSociedade Anônima do Futebol (SAF) Botafogo and of 70% of SAF Vasco for American investors in 2022 are major examples of such phenomenon. This study analyzes the interaction within those soccer clubs’ networks since the development of MCO, with a closer look at the new wave of US investments in soccer clubs in Brazil in the past few years. This article attempts to answer the question: Does this investment trend reinforce a subordinated insertion/introduction of clubs in an operational organization in networks? The present trend of US investment in soccer clubs in Brazil was perceived to deepen the phenomenon of MCO, enabling the subordination of local clubs to a centralized structure, especially since the implementation of SAFs.

    Clube-empresa no Brasil: um fenômeno geográfico
    (AGB Campinas, 2022-04-29) Ferreira, Jonathan [UNESP]; Motta, Luciano; Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp)
    Este artigo analisa a emergência dos clubes-empresas no território brasileiro, a partirda lógica neoliberal e do período de financeirização da economia mundial. Porclube-empresa, entende-se uma entidade de prática desportiva que adota comotipologia jurídica o modelo de sociedade empresarial. O surgimento desse fenômenoestá diretamente relacionado com a conjuntura econômica e, especialmente noBrasil, apresenta-se como um fenômeno geográfico de característica ímpar. Apesquisa oportunizou o levantamento de todos os clubes-empresas brasileiros,chegando-se a mais de uma centena. A partir dessa sistematização e do cruzamentode outros dados (capital social, proprietários, competições participantes, etc.), foipossível, de modo geral, determinar que os clubes-empresas: (i) estão localizados emregiões de maior densidade técnica-informacional; (ii) são clubes com baixoinvestimento financeiro; (iii) e, apoiados em pessoas físicas, voltados estritamente auma lógica de acumulação incipiente.

    Monosialitization as the main chemical weathering process in the Poços de Caldas alkaline plateau (MG)
    (2022-07-01) de Mello, Rafael Carvalho Alves [UNESP]; da Conceição, Fabiano Tomazini [UNESP]; Fernandes, Alexandre Martins [UNESP]; de Souza Sardinha, Diego; Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP); Instituto de Ciência e Tecnologia
    The characteristics of surface waters are strongly influenced by chemical weathering processes of the rocks in a watershed. Thus, this work investigated the chemical weathering influences on the surface water composition in the Poços de Caldas alkaline plateau, studying the Ariranha Stream basin. The physical and chemical parameters were evaluated monthly, totalizing twelve samples throughout 2016. The results indicated that the Ariranha Stream waters are constituted mainly by HCO3- and Na+ dissolved ions. The dissolved load was 247,6 t/a in 2016, with the majority being transported in the wet period (75,6%). The annual flux of 25,3 t/km2/a is lower than the obtained in other watersheds composed for alkaline rocks in Brazil or elsewhere, independently of the climatic conditions. The Ariranha Stream waters are controlled by a mixed between the rainwaters and the monossialitisation processes of the primary minerals of the Poços de Caldas alkaline plateau.

    A framework for near-real time monitoring of diversity patterns based on indirect remote sensing, with an application in the Brazilian Atlantic rainforest
    (2022-06-29) Paz, Andrea; Silva, Thiago S. [UNESP]; Carnaval, Ana C.; City College of New York; Graduate School and University Center; Zurich; Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP); University of Stirling
    Monitoring biodiversity change is key to effective conservation policy. While it is difficult to establish in situ biodiversity monitoring programs at broad geographical scales, remote sensing advances allow for near-real time Earth observations that may help with this goal. We combine periodical and freely available remote sensing information describing temperature and precipitation with curated biological information from several groups of animals and plants in the Brazilian Atlantic rainforest to design an indirect remote sensing framework that monitors potential loss and gain of biodiversity in near-real time. Using data from biological collections and information from repeated field inventories, we demonstrate that this framework has the potential to accurately predict trends of biodiversity change for both taxonomic and phylogenetic diversity. The framework identifies areas of potential diversity loss more accurately than areas of species gain, and performs best when applied to broadly distributed groups of animals and plants.

    A IMPORTÂNCIA DAS VANTAGENS LOCACIONAIS E DOS SERVIÇOS PRODUTIVOS NAS INDÚSTRIAS AUTOMOTIVAS ASIÁTICAS NO ESTADO DE SÃO PAULO: O CASO DE PIRACICABA, INDAIATUBA E SUMARÉ
    (Editora da Universidade Federal de Uberlândia - EDUFU, 2022-04-22) Takami, Saulo Teruo [UNESP]; Mendes, Auro Aparecido [UNESP]; Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)
    The industrial activity, mainly at automotive sector, after the 1970s, started to demand, increasingly, productive services since simple activities, such as: safety, cleanliness, food, for instance, until sophisticated services (marketing, design, computer, among others). This kind of service involves a group of activities that may be intensive in capital, technology and highly skilled labour. The implantation of Hyundai in Piracicaba city, in 2012; Toyota in Indaiatuba city, in 1998 and Honda in Sumaré city, in 1997, reveals the importance of countryside of São Paulo state in attraction of Asian industries. The present paper has the objective to analyse the importance of local advantages and productive services at Asian industries in mentioned cities that represent the spatial area of this research. Besides the introduction and final considerations, this paper will deal the conceptual aspects and the typology of services to industrial activity; the importance of local advantages to Asian automotive industries in São Paulo state and the relevance of productive services and other locational factors to automotive industries researched.

    Aspectos da cultura da laranja em Bebedouro.
    (1980-01-01) Bray, S. C.; Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)
    Cultivation began in the 1930's but in the 1940's with the market drop, due to the Second World War, the paulista citrus production declined, aggravated by 'tristeza' disease. After 1945 the export market increased and in the 1950's production increased in Bebedouro on many estates due to the emergence of packing-houses. In the 1960's citrus industries (concentrated juice) for export began. Limeira and Bebedouro are the principal producing and exporting centres of citrus products in Brazil. -after English summary

    Fluvial responses to external and internal forcing: Upper Holocene dynamics in a low latitude semi-arid region in South America
    (2021-12-01) Lima, Kleber Carvalho; Perez Filho, Archimedes; Lupinacci, Cenira Maria [UNESP]; Valézio, Éverton Vinicius; Góes, Liliane Matos; University of Pernambuco (UPE); Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP); Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP); University of Bahia State (UNEB)
    River streams are sensitive to environmental changes in drainage basins in response to external and internal forcing. These changes lead to drainage channel adjustments and may alter erosion-sedimentation cycles along valleys, as well as short and long term geomorphological evolution. Concerning the low latitude semi-arid region in South America, fluvial responses to environmental changes during the Upper Holocene have still not been adequately assessed, contrasting with evaluations in river drylands located in middle latitudes. To collaborate with assessments on Upper Holocene climatic fluctuations, alluvial deposits at the Itapicuru River, located in the Brazilian semi-arid, were analyzed to understand this river's dynamics in the last 5 ka and its relationship with both intrinsic and extrinsic factors. The following analyses were performed: [1] spatial terrace distribution throughout the river's longitudinal profile, [2] stratigraphic section assessments, [3] OSL dating, to estimate surface time elaboration, and [4] age correlations with regional paleoclimatic models. In the last 2.2 ka, downcutting and lateral migration occurred at the same time due to fluvial discharge changes over centuries and decades. Semi-arid conditions, such as those currently observed, prevailed throughout the drainage basin, with wet intervals identified upstream. Humidity variations were responsible for middle valley incision and deposition, forming terrace, bars, and natural levees. These findings indicate that, at least in our case study, intrinsic factors had big importance to control the fluvial dynamics since the establishment of the semi-arid low latitude climatic conditions.

    The utilization of the human thinking representation oriented model (MORPH) for the establishment of a fluvial sensitivity index (FSI): A proposed contribution to the environmental sensitivity to oil classification
    (2015-01-01) Costa, Daiana Marques [UNESP]; Riedel, Paulina Setti [UNESP]; da Cunha, Cenira Maria Lupinacci [UNESP]; Zambon, Antonio Carlos; Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP); Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP)
    This paper presents the using of the Human Thinking Representation Oriented Model (MORPH) as analysis tool as support to the creation of a classification system, that aims to determine the environmental sensitivity to oil in waterways, based on the main classification system by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and by the Petrobras S.A. to river environment. This proposal came about because of ever increasing reoccurrences of oil spills in areas on the continent, causing environmental damage to waterways and the lack of a broad classification system that meets the needs of the different environments found in waterways, once the main sensitivity studies are directed towards coastal settings. The MORPH simplified the comparison of many interdependent variables, identifying the fundamental physical parameters for establish the fluvial environments that make up the Fluvial Sensitivity Index (FSI), for instance: rocky shores, artificial structures, beaches, muddy substrate banks, point-bars, natural dikes, vegetated shores and flood plains associated with vegetation. The FSI relates the physical characteristics that influence directly natural persistence, dispersion and the cleaning and/or removal of oil conditions, which is directly reflected on the impact level.

    Residências secundárias e o espaço rural: Manifestações e dinâmicas na sociedade contemporânea
    (2011-12-19) Wandscheer, Elvis Albert Robe; Lindner, Michele [UNESP]; De Souza, Marcelino; Universidade Federal de Sergipe (UFS); Geografia pela Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS); Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP); Universidade Estadual de Londrina (UEL); Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UNICAMP); Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)
    Despite the fact that the secondary home phenomenon is not a recent event, this has detached itself in face of the new outlines that it denotes to the space where it occurs, mainly when it is situated in rural spaces. Given this perspective, the present work aims to study the spatial mobilities related to secondary homes localized in the rural medium, in their weekend and summer resort fluxes, in a way of analyzing the actions, interactions and dynamics established in the focused spaces. The research was conducted in Itaara and Restinga Seca cities, localized in Rio Grande do Sul state, Brazil. Metodologically, it counted with bibliographic revision and quali-quantitative data collection, where we utilized question forms applied to 86 visitors and 25 interviews with municipal public administrators, private initiative and local community. The results showed that the secondary homes phenomenon affects the space where it occurs in various dimensions. They also showed that there are some differences concerning the importance attained by the periodicity of the fluxes, since they diverge in the intensity and the way in which they act in the space and relate with its surroundings.

    The Units of Conservation have a fundamental paper in the process of environmental protection and conservation of the natural resources. In the context of management plan of Units of Conservation, the forms and morphometric patterns of the relief and geomorphological process have got great importance by the fact that they form the physical substratum on wich develop the human activities, answering the alterations provoked by such activities. The analysis of relief is one of the some forms of if understanding the spatial dynamics. In this way, the geomorphological cartography comes as a vital instrument for a appropriate plan. This article shows morphometric aspects of the relief (declivity, vertical dissection and horizontal dissection) in the basin of the Rio da Cachoeira (Waterfall River), area of the Floresta Nacional de Passa Quatro (MG), south of Minas Gerais state, as subsidy to the management plan of the Unity of Conservation and the integrated management of the area.

    REDES DO COMÉRCIO DE RUA DE SALVADOR, BAHIA
    (Universidade Federal do Ceará, 2015) Maia, Ana Cláudia Nogueira [UNESP]; Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp)
    This present paper reports a case study of the street trading in the central area of Iguatemi and Lima e Silva Avenue, Salvador – State of Bahia. While traversing the streets, it was possible to notice the diversity that this activity presents, the variety of goods, clothing, electronics, food products and those that are meant to meet a need momentary. The authors seek to understand the course that this diversity of goods conducts, from production to consumption, for this, the ‘foreign’ goods and clothes were analyzed in an attempt to track the entire way traced by those goods. Thus, a comprehension about possible networks formed behind the street trading were developed, in other words, the supply networks of this trade.

    Characterization of the sedimentary deposits of cÁssia and its relationship with the cÁssia fault zone, southwest of minas gerais
    (2019-01-01) Sartori, José Eduardo [UNESP]; Arai, Mitsuru [UNESP]; Morales, Norberto [UNESP]; de QUADROS, Letícia Severina [UNESP]; Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp)
    The sedimentary deposits of the Cássia region in southwestern Minas Gerais are known and intensely exploited as raw material for red ceramics since the 1930s. However, such geological materials have been poorly studied, generally succinctly in works still unpublished. In addition, the sedimentary cover is strongly controlled by the traces of the Cássia Fault Zone, an important preCambrian structure that cuts and deforms the crystalline basement of the region. In this context, the present work has the objective of describing and mapping the sedimentary deposits, investigating their relation with the fault zone. It was characterized a sedimentary package of predominantly pelitic composition, related to the registration of a paleolake with the episodic and localized entry of alluvial fans associated with the tectonic movement/reactivation of the traces of the Cássia Fault Zone during the Quaternary.

    Environmental correlates of taxonomic and phylogenetic diversity in the Atlantic Forest
    (2021-01-01) Paz, Andrea; Brown, Jason L.; Cordeiro, Carlos L. O. [UNESP]; Aguirre-Santoro, Julian; Assis, Claydson; Amaro, Renata Cecilia; Raposo do Amaral, Fabio; Bochorny, Thuane; Bacci, Lucas F.; Caddah, Mayara K.; d’Horta, Fernando; Kaehler, Miriam; Lyra, Mariana [UNESP]; Grohmann, Carlos Henrique; Reginato, Marcelo; Silva-Brandão, Karina Lucas; Freitas, André Victor Lucci; Goldenberg, Renato; Lohmann, Lúcia G.; Michelangeli, Fabián A.; Miyaki, Cristina; Rodrigues, Miguel T.; Silva, Thiago S.

    Aim: There is little consensus on which environmental variables are best at predicting multiple dimensions of diversity. We ask whether there are common environmental correlates of diversity, despite ecological differences, across nine clades of plants and animals distributed along a single rainforest domain. For that, we compare the environmental correlates of species richness, phylogenetic diversity, and phylogenetic endemism. Location: Brazilian Atlantic Forest. Taxon:Five clades of plants (Bromelioideae, Miconieae, Bertolonia, Cambessedesieae, and the Fridericia and allies) and four clades of animals (butterlies in the tribe Ithomiini, frogs in the genera Boana and Proceratophrys, and birds in the subfamily Thraupinae). Methods: Using curated occurrence localities and phylogenetic data, we generated maps of (a) species richness, (b) phylogenetic diversity, (c) residuals of phylogenetic diversity regressed on species richness, and (d) phylogenetic endemism for all groups. We also compiled a set of 30 environmental descriptors, including records of current temperature and precipitation, climatic stability over time, and topography. Through a machine learning framework, we explored the environmental correlates of each of these diversity measures for each group. Results: The environmental variables used here were strong predictors of diversity for all studied groups. However, models for phylogenetic endemism had lower predictive power. Although patterns of diversity are different among groups, correlates of diversity are consistent across taxa. For both species richness and phylogenetic diversity, current precipitation and precipitation stability over time were consistently ranked among the variables that strongly correlate with diversity patterns. The correlates of phylogenetic endemism were less homogeneous across groups. The results suggest that including climate stability over time is important when predicting diversity measures that reflect historical components. Main conclusions: Investigating environmental correlates of diversity for multiple clades and diversity measures in a single geographic area allows for a better understanding of common patterns across taxa. This study shows that environmental conditions, particularly precipitation, are good predictors of the patterns of species richness and phylogenetic diversity-but not phylogenetic endemism-across different Atlantic Forest groups.
