Introduction to Ethnobiology
This textbook provides a basic introduction to ethnobiology with key concepts for beginners. It is also written for those who teach ethnobiology or related fields. The core issues and concepts, as well as approaches and theoretical positions are fully covered.
CURRÍCULO ESTUDOS E REFLEXÕES
Esse livro é decorrente de muitos encontros e muitas aprendizagens e reúne os textos refletidos no interior de dois grupos de pesquisa: Laboratório de Pesquisa em Políticas Públicas, Currículo e Docência, filiado aos Programas de Pós-Graduação em Educação e Pós-Graduação em Educação Contemporânea da Universidade Federal de Pernambuco, Campus Agreste; e Pesquisa Práxis Educativa na Formação e no Ensino Bíblico, filiado ao Programa de Mestrado Profissional em Teologia das Faculdades Batista do Paraná. O livro apresenta o resultado de estudos desenvolvidos pelos orientandos de nossos grupos de pesquisa nos cursos de Mestrado, Doutorado e Iniciação Científica. As contribuições das investigações efetivadas são aqui retratadas e trazem a história dos percursos de seus autores diante de um objeto de pesquisa associado ao campo do currículo. Esperamos que aprecie as discussões e as sistematizações desenvolvidas por cada um dos pesquisadores. Boa leitura.
Ethnobotany of the Mountain Regions of Brazil
Research in recent years has increasingly shifted away from purely academic research, and into applied aspects of the discipline, including climate change research, conservation, and sustainable development. It has by now widely been recognized that “traditional” knowledge is always in flux and adapting to a quickly changing environment. Trends of globalization, especially the globalization of plant markets, have greatly influenced how plant resources are managed nowadays. While ethnobotanical studies are now available from many regions of the world, no comprehensive encyclopedic series focusing on the worlds mountain regions is available in the market. Scholars in plant sciences worldwi...
Brazilian Estuaries
This book presents the main drivers of benthic structure and processes in estuaries from the 8,000 km-Brazilian coast, assesses the influence of natural and human disturbance, and discusses their ecological importance and management needs. Estuaries are unique coastal ecosystems often with low biodiversity that sustain and provide essential ecological services to mankind. These ecosystems include a variety of habitats with their own sediment and fauna dynamics, all of them globally altered or threatened by human activities. Mangroves, saltmarshes, tidal flats and other confined estuarine systems are under increasing stress by overfishing and other human activities leading to habitat and species loss. Combined changes in estuarine hydromorphology and in climate pose severe threats to estuarine ecosystems at a global scale.
Animal Biodiversity and Conservation in Brazil's Northern Atlantic Forest
This book describes the fauna of the Pernambuco Endemism Center in Brazil's Northern Atlantic Forest, an understudied global biodiversity hotspot. Through fifteen curated chapters, it provides the latest information about the fauna of the northern portion of the Atlantic Forest, gathering important information about the faunal composition of the region for the first time. The chapters address animal biodiversity including terrestrial and aquatic vertebrates (fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals) and invertebrates (ants, butterflies, dung beetles, hervestmen, spiders, and termites). All chapters provide species lists, taxonomic aspects and richness analysis. Conservation of specific animal groups is also discussed. Finally, the book discusses human impacts on the forest and its biodiversity, emphasizing the need for conservation of this highly impacted ecosystem.
Global Apartments
As the 20th Century progressed, urban housing became quite homogenized throughout the world. Apartment buildings in Sao Paulo are very similar to those in Seoul, Moscow, and even Chicago. It is clear that the modernist architectural vocabulary made famous by the so-called "International style" has gone much beyond corporation identity buildings and prevails in the housing sector in most of the urbanized world. According to a study supported by the United Nations Habitat (ANGEL, 2000), residential buildings - although varying in size, shape and construction materials - now take on one of four basic forms: the single family house, the row house, the walk-up apartment building and the high-rise. This book is the result of almost a decade of research on multi-family buildings, known worldwide as apartments. The main goal is to investigate the extent to which those buildings are or are not alike, or whether the similarities are more visual than experiential.
Metodologia do ensino de educação física
A metodologia, que é enunciada neste livro, é entendida como uma das formas de apropriação do conhecimento específico da Educação Física onde sempre está presente o singular de cada tema da Cultura Corporal, como também o geral, que é a expressão corporal como linguagem social e historicamente construída. Assim, são contempladas abordagens metodológicas abrangendo programas específicos para cada um dos graus de ensino, bem como formas de selecionar e sistematizar o conhecimento e organizar o trabalho escolar, sem descuidar das práticas avaliativas, que ganham instigantes contornos.
