Distribuição da população e cobertura da terra: o lugar das Áreas Protegidas no Pará, Brasil em 2010. Revista Brasileira de Estudos de População. 32(3):563-585.
AbstractThe objective of this study is to analyze population distribution in the state of Pará in Brazil using data from the2010 Population Census in association with the land use and land cover data from TerraClass arranged in a statistical grid. The role of 113 Protected Areas (including 46 Indigenous Lands, 51 Sustainable Use Conservation Units and 16 Integral Protection Conservation Units) is analyzed from the standpoint of their demographic rural-urban gradients and in terms of their land use cover. Information on the use and cover of land in Protected Areas along with census data were incorporated into a statistical grid using GIS. The spatial relationship of information layers in the cells indicates that the state's population is highly concentrated in a few areas, a pattern that is reproduced to some extent in the Protected Areas (Gini coefficient for the distribution of households is higher than 0.9). The area of the Protected areas is less populated and retains a greater extension of forested areas, by comparison to the state. Despite having extensive segments devoid of occupied households and the largest expanse of forest coverage (57%) in the state, Protected Areas also have urban areas associated with other uses and land cover change. The results indicate that population dynamics and changes in the uses and covering of land are related in a broader manner, thereby suggesting the need for reflection on urbanization and changes in land use and land cover change within a more integrated approach.

Enárgeia e elegia grega arcaica. Letras Clássicas. 19(2):43-54.
AbstractEste texto apresenta dois objetivos: primeiro, visa demonstrar como a noção de Enárgeia, fundada e elaborada na tradição retórica grega do séc. V, está presente na poesia grega desde os poemas homéricos. Em seguida, visa compreendê-la no âmbito da elegia grega arcaica simposial, sobretudo na produção do poeta espartano Tirteu.

Ion-cyclotron instability in plasmas described by product-bi-kappa distributions. Physics of Plasmas. 22(122107)
AbstractThe dispersion relation for parallel propagating waves in the ion-cyclotron branch is investigated
numerically by considering that the velocity distribution of the ion population is a function of type
product-bi-kappa. We investigate the effects of the non-thermal features and of the anisotropy associated with this type of distribution on the ion-cyclotron instability, as well as the influence of different forms of the electron distribution, by considering Maxwellian distributions, bi-kappa distributions, and product-bi-kappa distributions. The cases of ions described by either Maxwellian or bi-kappa distributions are also considered, for comparison. The results of the numerical analysis show that the increase in the non-thermal character associated with the anisotropic kappa distributions for ions contributes to enhance the instability as compared to that obtained in the Maxwellian case, in magnitude and in wave number range, with more significant enhancement for the case of ion product-bi-kappa distributions than for the case of ion bi-kappa distributions. It is also shown
that the ion-cyclotron instability is decreased if the electrons are described by product-bi-kappa distributions, while electrons described by bi-kappa distributions lead to growth rates which are very
similar to those obtained considering a Maxwellian distribution for the electron population.
