RESUMOUma das formas de verificar os impactos ambientais da criação de camarões (carcinicultura) é pela análise sistêmica das águas afluentes e efluentes de seus viveiros de produção. O objetivo deste trabalho foi caracterizar afluentes e efluentes da carcinicultura por meio de seus parâmetros físicos, químicos e biológicos e suas concentrações, adotando um regime temporal de coleta de amostras nas diferentes estações climáticas do ano. As metodologias e os padrões de referência na pesquisa estão respaldados pela legislação ambiental vigente. Os resultados indicaram que não houve diferenças significativas entre as concentrações dos parâmetros avaliados das águas afluentes e efluentes. Indicaram também a inaplicabilidade da legislação ambiental em vigor, que não considera nossas particularidades ambientais regionais, já que algumas concentrações dos parâmetros de qualidade de afluentes se encontram em desconformidade com essa legislação, o que tem causado dificuldades na avaliação ambiental dos órgãos licenciadores sobre a atividade no Ceará.Palavras-chave: qualidade de água; indicadores; carcinicultura. ABSTRACTOne of the ways to verify environmental impacts of shrimp farming is through the systemic analysis of influent and effluents waters ponds. The aim of this work was to characterize these variables through its physical, chemical and biological parameters and their concentrations, adopting a temporal scheme of samples collection in different climate stations of the year. Methodologies and reference standards in research are supported by current environmental legislation. Results showed that there were no significant differences between the concentrations of these parameters between the influent and effluent waters. They, furthermore, indicate a inapplicability of current environmental legislation in Brazil, which does not consider our regional environmental characteristics, because the quality of the affluent waters were already in disagreement with the Brazilian environmental legislation, which has caused conflicts of interpretation in the environmental assessment of the shrimp culture in Ceará, Brazil.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
