A partial least squares-path model of environmental degradation in the Paraopeba River, for rainy seasons after the rupture of B1 tailings dam, Brumadinho, Brazil
(Science of the Total Environment, 2022) [Artigo]The present study aimed to investigate the rupture of B1 tailings dam of Córrego do Feijão mine, which drastically affected the region of Brumadinho (Minas Gerais, Brazil). The contamination of water resources reached 155.3 ... -
LOSS SAMPLING METHODS FOR SOYBEAN MECHANICAL HARVEST
(Bioscience Journal, 2022) [Artigo]Harvesting is one of the most important stages of the agricultural production process. However, the lack of monitoring during this operation and the absence of efficient methodologies to quantify losses have contributed ... -
Integrating Satellite and UAV Data to Predict Peanut Maturity upon Artificial Neural Networks
(Agronomy, 2022) [Artigo]The monitoring and determination of peanut maturity are fundamental to reducing losses during digging operation. However, the methods currently used are laborious and subjective. To solve this problem, we developed models ... -
Yield predict and physiological state evaluation of irrigated common bean cultivars with contrasting growth habits by learning algorithms using spectral indices
(Geocarto International, 2022) [Artigo]This study aimed to analyze and compare the accuracy of models to predict the grain yield (GY) of common bean cultivars with contrasting growth habits using spectral indices. The common bean cultivars used were IAC Imperador ... -
A groundwater security model based on hydraulic turnover times and flow compartments
(MethodsX, 2022) [Artigo]Starting with a log-linear relationship between groundwater discharge per unit drainage area (Q/Ab), hydraulic turnover time (t) and aquifer mobile storage (z), this study builds a groundwater security method at catchment ... -
Spatial indicator of priority areas for the implementation of agroforestry systems: An optimization strategy for agricultural landscapes restoration
(Science of the Total Environment, 2022) [Artigo]The ecological functions restoration in agricultural areas is a major challenge on a landscape scale. In the specific case of active restoration through Agroforestry Systems (AFS), the absence of a specific direction hinders ... -
Role of Mine Tailings in the Spatio-Temporal Distribution of Phosphorus in River Water: The Case of B1 Dam Break in Brumadinho
(Water (Switzerland), 2022) [Artigo]Human actions in the drainage network of hydrographic basins interfere with the functioning of ecosystems, causing negative impacts on the environment. Among these impacts, mass loads with a high concentration of phosphorus ... -
Production of high-quality biogenic fuels by co-pelletization of sugarcane bagasse with pinewood sawdust and peanut shell
(Biomass Conversion and Biorefinery, 2022) [Artigo]Sugar-energy sector is key to the provision of food and energy worldwide. However, it can largely generate mill-run bagasse as an agro-residual biomass. The tradition of the sector is to put it back into the industrial ... -
What are the impacts of water deficit, cultivars, and years on the dynamics of nutrient uptake by common bean? Part II: Ca, Mg, and S
(Journal of Plant Nutrition, 2022) [Artigo]We aimed to explain and compare Ca, Mg, and S uptake dynamics by two common bean cultivars with contrasting growth habits as a function of water deficit severity in two years to generate more specific information for their ... -
A partial least squares-path model of causality among environmental deterioration indicators in the dry period of Paraopeba River after the rupture of B1 tailings dam in Brumadinho (Minas Gerais, Brazil)
(Environmental Pollution, 2022) [Artigo]This study investigated the collapse of B1 mine-tailings dam that occurred in 25 January 2019 and severely affected the Brumadinho region (Minas Gerais state, Brazil) socially, economically and environmentally. As regards ... -
The Time of Day Is Key to Discriminate Cultivars of Sugarcane upon Imagery Data from Unmanned Aerial Vehicle
(Drones, 2022) [Artigo]Remote sensing can provide useful imagery data to monitor sugarcane in the field, whether for precision management or high-throughput phenotyping (HTP). However, research and tech-nological development into aerial remote ... -
Water security threats and challenges following the rupture of large tailings dams
(Science of the Total Environment, 2022) [Artigo]The rupture of mine-tailings dams can severely contaminate rivers, because released tailings can interact with water for years keeping contaminant concentrations high. The general purpose of this study was to examine the ... -
