Waterborne risperidone decreases stress response in zebrafish
(2015) [Journal article]The presence of drugs and their metabolites in surface waters and municipal effluents has been reported in several studies, but its impacts on aquatic organisms are not yet well understood. This study investigated the ... -
Water desalination by MoS2 nanopores : the role of pore geometry and chemistry on water and ion transport
(2022) [Dissertation]Water scarcity is a pressing issue faced by humanity and is predicted to worsen in the near future. The development of more cost-effective water desalination technology can help alleviate these issues. 2D materials, made ... -
Water desalination by MoS2 nanoporous membrane : a molecular dynamics analysis
(2020) [Dissertation]Water scarcity is one of the most significant challenges of our time, and scenarios predicted by leading scientists in this area indicate that it will worsen in the next decades. New technologies based on seawater desalination ... -
Water diffusion in carbon nanotubes : Interplay between confinement, surface deformation, and temperature
(2020) [Journal article]In this article, we investigate, through molecular dynamics simulations, the diffusion behavior of the TIP4P/2005 water confined in pristine and deformed carbon nanotubes (armchair and zigzag). To analyze different diffusive ... -
Water diffusion in rough carbon nanotubes
(2020) [Journal article]We use molecular dynamics simulations to study the diffusion of water inside deformed carbon nanotubes with different degrees of deformation at 300 K. We found that the number of hydrogen bonds that water forms depends on ... -
Water disappearance dynamics in growing-finishing pig production
(2019) [Journal article]The objective of this study was to measure the water disappearance in the drinker and the pattern of daily water intake and estimate the amount of water wasted in pig production. The study will also generate information ... -
Water dynamics, phytoplankton biomass and size structure of a shalow freshwater subtropical lake (Itapeva Lake, South of Brazil)
(2004) [Journal article]Regular tools used to characterize the phytoplankton community structure are taxonomic composition, diversity of species and the classification of organisms according to their size. The main objective of this study was to ... -
Water erosion under simulated rainfall in different soil management systems during soybean growth
(2007) [Journal article]O manejo do solo influencia a cobertura superficial pelo resíduo cultural e, juntamente com a cobertura do solo pela copa das plantas, afeta a erosao hídrica. O objetivo do estudo foi quantificar as perdas de água e solo ... -
Water-food-energy nexus tradeoffs in the São Marcos river basin
(2021) [Journal article]Given its potentialities and characteristics, energy generation, food production, and water availability have a strong interdependency and correlation. Water is needed to produce energy and food, while energy is required ... -
Water hyacinth composting as a waste management strategy : a systematic review
(2022) [Journal article]Macrophytes proliferation problem is worldwide know resulting in impacts on natural environment, human health and economic activities. These organisms have several parameters resilience, which ensures high rate of reproduction ... -
“Water immersed inverted pendulum” : a physiomechanical model of shallow water walking at different depths and speeds
(2021) [Dissertation]During walking, the human body operates a mechanical energy exchange as an inverted pendulum. At each stride, there is an exchange between the forward kinetic energy and the gravitational potential energy of the center of ... -
Water in soybean oil microemulsions as medium for electrochemical measurements
(2003) [Journal article]Microemulsões de água em óleo de soja (w/o ME) foram preparadas com dodecil sulfato de sódio (SDS) como surfactante e com os álcoois amílico ou isoamílico, como co-surfactantes. A composição 40,0% de óleo, 43,2% de álcool, ... -
Waterlike anomalies in a two-dimensional core-softened potential
(2018) [Journal article]We investigate the structural, thermodynamic, and dynamic behavior of a two-dimensional (2D) core-corona system using Langevin dynamics simulations. The particles are modeled by employing a core-softened potential which ... -
Waterlike hierarchy of anomalies in continuous spherical shouldered potential
(2008) [Journal article]We investigate by molecular dynamics simulations a continuous isotropic core-softened potential with attractive well in three dimensions, introduced by Franzese [J. Mol. Liq. 136, 267 (2007)], that displays liquid-liquid ... -
Water protector project for Payment for Ecosystem Services (PES) of Vera Cruz, RS: analysis of the motivations and perceptions of participating landowners
(2020) [Dissertation]As a result of the decrease in the quantity and quality of water and the difficulties to reduce its degradation in rural areas, government agencies and institutions have developed and implemented policies for Payment for ... -
