Hydrosedimentological Monitoring

Context

Hydrosedimentological monitoring is essential to evaluate environmental impacts resulting from sedimentation, erosion, and their consequences on aquatic ecosystems. These processes affect water quality, sedimentological dynamics, and aquatic biodiversity, compromising the environmental health of reservoirs and other water bodies.

Methodology

The methodology involved the analysis of data on precipitation, flow, water quality, and sedimentation, with the use of bioindicators such as ichthyofauna, macrophytes, and erosion analysis. Comparisons with historical data were performed to evaluate long-term impacts.

Results

The program allowed for a detailed evaluation of hydrosedimentological dynamics, with a focus on water quality, aquatic biodiversity, and erosion of the reservoir banks.

Decharacterization of geotechnical structures

Development of studies, design work and environmental monitoring related to the de-characterization of geotechnical structures in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil.

DEVELOPMENT OF SOCIO-ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES

Development of Socio-environmental Studies for the implementation of new public schools through Public-Private Partnerships. This project includes the preparation of diagnoses, analysis of environmental restrictions of the insertion area and applicable current legislation, considering recommendations aimed at pertinent actions and good practices that ensure the proper implementation of the projects and consequently their operation.

Seed Collection, Processing, and Storage Course

In the United Nations Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, the forest restoration chain in Brazil faces challenges in properly producing seedlings of native species. In Brazil, there are more than 30,000 native plant species that can potentially be used in forest restoration. Knowing the best techniques for collecting, processing, and storing seeds of native species is one of the crucial points for promoting successful environmental recovery actions.
