Based on Global Network Isotopes in Precipitation (GNIP) isotopic data set, a review of the spatial and temporal variability of δO and δH in precipitation was conducted throughout central and eastern Brazil, indicating that dynamic interactions between Intertropical and South Atlantic Convergence Zones, Amazon rainforest, and Atlantic Ocean determine the variations on the isotopic composition of precipitation over this area. Despite the seasonality and latitude effects observed, a fair correlation with precipitation amount was found. In addition, Hybrid Single-Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory (HYSPLIT) air mass back trajectories were used to quantify the factors controlling daily variability in stable isotopes in precipitation. Through a linear multiple regression analysis, it was observed that temporal variations were consistent with the meteorological parameters derived from HYSPLIT, particularly precipitation amount along the trajectory and mix depth, but are not dependent on vapour residence time in the atmosphere. These findings also indicate the importance of convective systems to control the isotopic composition of precipitation in tropical and subtropical regions.

We present precipitation isotope data (δ2H and δ18O values) from 19 stations across the tropics collected from 2012 to 2017 under the Coordinated Research Project F31004 sponsored by the International Atomic Energy Agency. Rainfall samples were collected daily and analysed for stable isotopic ratios of oxygen and hydrogen by participating laboratories following a common analytical framework. We also calculated daily mean stratiform rainfall area fractions around each station over an area of 5° x 5° longitude/latitude based on TRMM/GPM satellite data. Isotope time series, along with information on rainfall amount and stratiform/convective proportions provide a valuable tool for rainfall characterisation and to improve the ability of isotope-enabled Global Circulation Models to predict variability and availability of inputs to fresh water resources across the tropics.

despite the reduction in hospitalization coefficient for mental and behavioral disorders during the studied period, the hospital mortality coefficient has increased.

ResumoDiscussões inerentes ao aborto no Brasil suscitam reflexões relacionadas a aspectos sociais, culturais, morais, legais, econômicos, bioéticos, religiosos e ideológicos. O aborto emergiu como questão de saúde pública, em razão do elevado índice de morbimortalidade materna. O estudo objetiva discutir a criminalização do aborto no Brasil e implicações à saúde pública. Trata-se de revisão crítica, realizada nas bases de dados Lilacs e SciELO. Evidenciou-se que o déficit na qualidade da assistência prestada, especificamente à saúde reprodutiva da mulher, como as ações do planejamento familiar, bem como a ilegalidade do aborto no Brasil, provocam implicações à saúde da mulher, vez que várias buscam práticas inseguras e clandestinas de abortamento. Considera-se que a proibição não impede que o aborto seja realizado. Do ponto de vista ético, a mulher, como qualquer outro indivíduo, independentemente de raça, etnia ou classe social, tem o direito sobre seu corpo. Palavras-chave: Aborto induzido.

Abstract Criminalization of abortion in Brazil and the implications for public healthDiscussions related to abortion in Brazil raise reflections related to social, cultural, moral, legal, economical, ideological, religious and bioethical issues. Abortion emerged as a public health issue, because of its high rate of maternal mortality and morbidity. The study aims to address the criminalization of abortion in Brazil and the implications for public health. This is a critical review, held in the database Lilacs and SciELO. It was evident that the deficit in quality of care, specifically reproductive health of women, as the actions of planned parenthood, as well as the illegality of abortion in Brazil cause implications for women's health, since several ones look for unsafe practic...
