O foco deste estudo são as metáforas visuais em quadrinhos como um recurso didático e tecnológico no módus operandi de se transmitir conhecimento, essencialmente na saúde. O objetivo é oferecer uma sistematização teórica sobre os quadrinhos e tem caráter bibliográfico, qualitativo e exploratório.  Realizou-se uma pesquisa no período de 2009 a 2019, nas bases: SciELO, BVS - Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde e PERIÓDICOS CAPES/MEC, por meio dos descritores “quadrinhos”; “ensino”; “saúde”; “comunicação” “serviço social”, onde foram selecionados 18 artigos que transitassem duas ou mais palavras-chave e contemplassem os objetivos propostos. Os resultados apontaram a importância das HQs como ferramenta pedagógica e formadora de conceitos não cristalizados, identificou as lacunas do conhecimento e a necessidade do Serviço Social em desvendá-la como método difusor de conceitos sociais fundamentais.

<p>Brazil has endured the worst droughts in recorded history over the last decade, resulting in severe socioeconomic and environmental impacts. The country relies heavily on water resources, with 77.7% of water consumed for agriculture (irrigation and livestock), 9.7% for industry, and 11.4% for human supply. Hydropower plants generate about 64% of all electricity consumed. One of the most impacted basins was the Paraná River basin It concentrates a third of the Brazilian population in urban centres such as São Paulo, the largest city in Latin America, thus it is the river basin with the greatest demand in the country. This basin is also the most important in hydropower generation, by the highest install capacity for hydropower; 57 reservoirs in the main steam and its tributaries (Grande, Paranaíba, Tietê, Paranapanema and Iguaçu Rivers), with Itaipu having the largest installed capacity (14,000 MW). This study aimed to advance the state of knowledge regarding hydrological drought patterns in the Paraná River Basin for improved monitoring and forecasting.</p><p>Droughts, like all hydrometeorological processes, are multivariate processes, that is, they are the result of the interaction of multiple hydrometeorological, climatic, and anthropogenic variables, among others. Therefore, several studies have shown the need to consider a multivariate approach to analysis and modelling drought events, which allows a better evaluation of the characteristics and conditions of its.</p><p>In this study we applied: i) well know univariate drought index: SPI, SPEI and SSFI; ii) a multivariate index, obtained through the Copulas Theory and; iii) potential soil moisture conditions obtained through the Normalized Terrain Model HAND, to understand and characterized hydrological droughts in the Paraná River Basin and Subbasins.

The multivariate index together with HAND information allow us to understand better the process of developing, duration, and recovery of drought events.</p>

RESUMOMuito se tem discutido recentemente sobre planejamentos, grande parte é sobre planejar a vida pessoal, profissional e empresarial. É indiscutível que ele é importante e está sendo utilizado por todos, mas pouco se fala sobre planejamento de bairros e sua estruturação. O objetivo deste estudo é analisar e comparar dois modelos de planejamento (estratégico e participativo) para definir metodologias para aplicação em um bairro. Em virtude disso o estudo analisa bibliografias com esses tipos de planejamento, suas metodologias, fases para elaboração e como aplicá-las em um bairro. Os resultados encontrados pela pesquisa foram que o planejamento ideal para bairros é o planejamento participativo, pois tal planejamento deve ser feito em prol de melhorias para os moradores. Este modelo da oportunidade para a comunidade participar do processo de elaboração do plano, dando ideias particulares, compartilhando seu saber, criando ações, soluções e escolhendo de forma democrática. Palavras-chave: Planejamento, metodologia, fases. POSSIBILITIES METHODOLOGY FOR PLANNING APPLICATION PARTICIPATORY IN NEIGHBORHOODS ABSTRACTMuch has been discussed recently about planning, much of it is about planning the personal, professional and business. It is indisputable that it is important and is being used by everyone, but little is said about planning neighborhoods and its structure. The aim of this study is to analyze and compare two models of planning (strategic and participatory) to define methodologies for application in a neighborhood. As a result the study analyzes bibliographies with these types of planning, methodologies, stages for development and how to apply them in a neighborhood. The findings of the research were that the ideal planning for neighborhoods is participatory planning, as this planning should be done for improvement to residents. This model of opportunity for the community to participate in the preparation of the plan process, giving particular ideas, sharing their knowledge, creating actions, solutions and choosing democratically.
