Pedagogical Sustainability Project Addressing Environmental Problems in Cabo Frio, RJ, Brazil
World Sustainability Series, 2021The reduced supply of drinking water is a severe problem faced by the city of Cabo Frio, RJ, Brazil. This study aims to develop a sustainability and social responsibility project using pedagogical dynamics (PD), through the Cycle of Living Activities (CLA) with real problem situations, related to the insufficient supply of water in the municipality ...

Numerical modelling of phytoplankton bloom in the upwelling ecosystem of Cabo Frio (Brazil)
Ecological Modelling, 1999Abstract The phenomenon of phytoplankton bloom during upwelling events in the coastal region of Cabo Frio (Brazil), is investigated using a 1 1 2 ocean model including the physics of coastal waters and the biological changes of the marine primary biomass. The vertical structure of the coupled, physical–biological model is described by an active

Feature-oriented acoustic tomography: Upwelling at Cabo Frio (Brazil)
OCEANS 2009, 2009The Cabo Frio region (Brazil) presents a unique coastal-oceanic system. Among several interesting oceanic phenomena that occur in this region, the coastal upwelling is the most important coastal feature and is mainly forced by persistent winds northeast.

Mercury speciation in plankton from the Cabo Frio Bay, SE - Brazil
Environmental Monitoring and Assessment, 2014Mercury (Hg) is considered a global pollutant, and the scientific community has shown great concern about its toxicity as it may affect the biota of entire systems, through bioaccumulation and bioamplification processes of its organic form, methylmercury (MeHg), along food web.

Internationalization and the Tale of the Cabo Frio Beachwear Cluster
2019This chapter analyses the trajectory of the Cabo Frio beachwear cluster in Brazil. Departing from the extant literature on cluster evolution, the study describes the stages of birth, take-off, growth, and maturity of the cluster, focusing specifically on the attempts to develop exporting activities.

Estudo magnetometrico da região de Cabo Frio
12th International Congress of the Brazilian Geophysical Society & EXPOGEF, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 15–18 August 2011, 2011O presente projeto visa estudar o terreno Cabo Frio e as rochas que o compoem, fazendo uso da magnetometria, que fornece informacoes sobre as estruturas em subsuperficie. Um estudo comparativo com o mapa regional aeromagnetico fornecera ainda subsidios que permitem verificar a causa das grandes anomalias magneticas observadas e que caracterizam o ...

Particle motion measurements near a rocky shore off Cabo Frio Island
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2020This paper describes the lessons learned from the experiment BIOCOM'19 carried out in January 2019, in a shallow water bay off the island of Cabo Frio (RJ, Brazil). A dual accelerometer vector sensor hydrophone was deployed for two days, near a rocky shore covered with a significant benthic fauna.

Mercury deposition during the previous century in an upwelling region; Cabo Frio, Brazil
Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2013To investigate the upwelling influence on Hg biogeochemical cycles and the sedimentological changes during the previous ≈ 150 years, four sediment box-cores were sampled along an inshore offshore transect on the Southeastern Brazilian continental shelf.

The Cabo Frio Upwelling System, Brazil
2001Upwelling processes are most common and most intense on the eastern side of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. The Cabo Frio upwelling system (23°S, 42°W) is an anomaly in that it is on the west side of the Atlantic Ocean on the coast of the state of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (Fig. 7.1).

Relation between silicified faults and evolution of the Cabo Frio High
19th Congress of the Brazilian Geophysical Society - ProceedingsThe Cabo Frio High represents a structural and magmatic feature limiting Santos and Campos Basins. Several examples of faults and magmatic intrusions are pervasive on the continental border from Niterói, to Cabo Frio and Búzios municipalities. These structures present silicified faults that register information about the kinematic of the deformation,
