ResumoO uso e ocupação do solo podem influenciar diretamente na qualidade e na disponibilidade dos recursos hídricos, seja pela urbanização acelerada, pela supressão da vegetação ou uso agrícola. Os impactos podem variar em função do uso, aporte de carga orgânica, nutrientes, contaminantes metálicos e o arraste de sedimentos comprometendo a qualidade e o equilíbrio dos ecossistemas aquáticos. Este trabalho objetivou avaliar a influência do uso e ocupação dos solos sobre a qualidade da água das bacias hidrográficas dos Rios Piaí e Tega, em Caxias do Sul-RS. Avaliou-se para tal os Índices de Qualidade da Água (IQA) e de Toxicidade (IT) em 5 pontos do Rio Piaí (P1 a P5) e em 12 do Rio Tega (T1 a T12). Foram realizadas 12 campanhas entre setembro/2012 a julho/2014. Para o desenvolvimento dos mapas de uso e ocupação dos solos, foram utilizadas imagens de satélite LANDSAT 8 aliadas à classificação supervisionada com o algoritmo Máxima Verossimilhança Gaussiana e digitalização em tela em pontos de conflito. Para a classificação dos mapas foram definidas 7 classes de uso, sendo: mata nativa, campo, silvicultura, agricultura, solo exposto, área urbana e lâmina d'água. Concluiu-se que a baixa qualidade da água de pontos como P3 e P4 do Rio Piaí e dos pontos T1 a T9 do Rio Tega é reflexo do uso e ocupação do solo, lançamento de efluentes de fontes pontuais (residências e indústrias) sem estação de tratamento de efluentes ou cujo tratamento não é suficiente para atender os padrões de lançamento previstos pela legislação.

The impacts may vary according the use, the organic load supply, metal nutrients and contaminants and the drag of sediment affecting the water quality and the balance of aquatic ecosystems. This research was aimed to evaluated the influence of use and land use on water quality of river basins of the rivers Piaí and Tega, in Caxias do Sul-RS. Analyzed for such the Water Quality Index (WQI) and Toxicity (TI) in 5 points from River Piaí (P1 to P5) and 12 from River Tega (T1 to T12). Were realized 12 campaigns between September / 2012 to July / 2014. To develop the maps the use and occupation land were used Landsat 8 satellite images combined with the supervised classification with the maximum likelihood algorithm and Gaussian screen scanning in trouble spots. For the classification of maps were defined 7 classes of use, as follows: native forest, field, forestry, agriculture, bare soil, urban and water depth. For the classification of maps were defined 7 classes of use, as follows: native forest, field, forestry, agriculture, bare soil, urban area and water depth. It was con...
This article presents a macroergonomic intervention carried out in a small footwear components company located in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The company´s demand was related to the waste of the expensive raw-material (thermoplastic polyurethane or TPU) used to manufacture the components (high heels pegs). According to the managerial staff, the waste was workers responsibility due to the craft characteristic of the process. A participative method was used to evaluate the problems, propose and implement solutions, as well as evaluate their impact on the workers and the Company. Improvements in the work conditions resulted in increase of workers' satisfaction with the work and in 31.5% waste reduction.
