Assessing the water quality of lakes and reservoirs is a fundamental step in active environmental management programs. In addition to the classic procedures for in situ water samples collecting, complementary approaches are also interesting. This work aims to study comparatively numerous São Paulo reservoirs, using remote sensing techniques, using images from the Sentinel 2 satellite (A a…
Assessing the water quality of lakes and reservoirs is a fundamental step in active environmental management programs. In addition to the classic in-situ water sampling procedures proposed in this project, it is also interesting to apply other complementary approaches to on-site studies. This work aims to study the Barra Bonita reservoir (São Paulo), evaluating the quality of its waters a…
Eutrophication is a historical and recurring process and cannot be neglected in Brazil. Based on Atlas Sewers, from 2018, there are about 95 million people in equivalent sewage released in nature, untreated in the country. This scenario allows us to conclude that it is essential to maintain active water and sediment quality monitoring programs, with the information available in open publi…
This project aims to strengthen the collaboration between research groups coordinated by Prof. Dr. Eduardo Vicente, Professor of Ecology, Department of Microbiology and Ecology, Faculty of Biological Sciences, University of Valencia (Burjassot Campus, Valencia, Spain), with the group coordinated by me at the Department of Ecology, Institute of Biosciences, of the São Paulo University. Th…

Zooplankton includes microscopic animals that live suspended in the water and are considered indicators of environmental quality, because their sensitivity to changes in the aquatic environment due to anthropogenic interference. The Cantareira System is composed of five reservoirs covering 12 cities in two states in Southeastern Brazil. Despite recording a few negative impacts relative to…
The Cantareira System is one of the main public systems of water supply in the São Paulo Metropolitan Area (SPMA). It is a complex system, compounded of six reservoirs interconnected by tunnels. The water quality of the reservoirs upstream affects the quality of the water that reaches to the last reservoir of the system, the Paiva Castro. The great importance of this system is due to two …
The aim of this project is to know the chemical and ecological status of waters and sediments of Guarapiranga reservoir and discriminate possible adverse factors for biota. To achieve this objective is planned sampling water and sediments for chemical analyses of pesticides, heavy metals and cyanotoxins, as well as are planned sampling sediments to study the benthic invertebrate community…

The sediments are very important in aquatic ecosystem, since they are the final destiny of many compounds that enter in the water body, constituting a concentrated pool of these substances. Besides, the understanding of sediment dynamics (structure, function and heterogeneity) enables the understanding of important aspects of the water mass dynamics. This project aims the study of seven r…
