With this in mind, the present work aimed to propose a rainwater drainage system suitable to the local conditions, in order to mitigate the impacts arising from the runoff of rainwater on the only road that crosses the condominium. For this, physiographic data were collected in locu, together with a bibliographic survey for later dimensioning of a structure capable of collecting and conducting rainwater efficiently and safely. Thus, through the calculated parameters, the proposition of a drainage system composed of a pair of gutters connected to a junction box that in turn are connected to HDPE pipes was reached, which direct the collected flow to the discharge point. Thus, the proposed structure demonstrates the capacity to remedy the problems arising from the runoff of water along the road that crosses the condominium. 2026-03-09T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.ufu.br/handle/123456789/48772 Title: Impactos ambientais da reciclagem do alumínio: uma revisão bibliográfica sobre os desafios e limitações 2026-03-01T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.ufu.br/handle/123456789/48400 Title: Análise do Processo Erosivo na Fazenda do Buriti em Uberlândia-MG: Diagnóstico e Propostas para Recuperação Ambiental Abstract: This study presents an analysis of the erosive process at Fazenda do Buriti, located in the rural area of Uberlândia, Minas Gerais, Brazil, and proposes a set of measures for the recovery of a gully erosion feature. The study identified that the origin of the erosion is associated with the concentration of stormwater runoff from the road system (Ayrton Senna Ring Road and BR- 050 highway), which altered the natural water flow and directed large volumes to a single point within the property. Based on satellite imagery, drone surveys, and field analyses, it was possible to monitor the evolution of the gully from 2016 to 2025, revealing continuous expansion. The study proposes the implementation of a Degraded Area Recovery Project (PRAD), using techniques such as the construction of bamboo check dams, seeding of grasses and legumes, installation of contour lines, and maintenance of existing drainage structures. It is concluded that the recovery of the area requires integrated interventions both at the erosion site and upstream, aiming to restore soil stability, vegetation cover, and the hydrological functionality of the landscape. 2025-10-07T00:00:00Z https://repositorio.ufu.br/handle/123456789/47598 Title: Análise temporal do uso do solo na bacia do Ribeirão Bom Jardim: aplicação de SPRI e NDVI na avaliação de estoque de carbono (CO2 flux) Abstract: The Ribeirão Bom Jardim basin features a significant ecosystem that plays a fundamental role in maintaining biodiversity and water resources. The use of satellite images and vegetation indices has proven effective in the analysis and assessment of vegetation cover in watersheds, especially in understanding biomass and its implications for climate change mitigation. The objective of this study is to analyze changes in land use and occupation in the Ribeirão Bom Jardim basin, using the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), the Photochemical Reflectance Index rescaled for positive values (sPRI), and Carbon Dioxide Flux (CO2 FLUX), allowing for an understanding of forest density patterns, atmospheric carbon sequestration capacity, and the photosynthetic efficiency of the region. Firstly, the study area was delineated, enabling the examination of its key characteristics such as topography, climate, soil type, and vegetation. Subsequently, using GIS (Geographic Information System), land use and deforestation analysis was conducted using Landsat 7 and 5 images. Finally, NDVI, sPRI, and CO2 FLUX indices were calculated. The results demonstrate a significant suppression of native cerrado vegetation between 2002 and 2008, leading to a decrease in carbon sequestration and photosynthetic efficiency. These findings underscore the importance of native cerrado vegetation not only as valuable ecosystems but also as significant contributors to climate change mitigation. 2024-04-15T00:00:00Z
