“…This includes Gericinó-Mendanha Park, with a 3% reduction, and Tijuca Forest National Park, with no reductions during the same period (Rio de Janeiro, 2000). According to Iwama et al (2014), mixed land use (rural and urban) predominates in Vargens, especially in proximity to preserved state-owned lands. The real estate is largely reflective of the medium to high income of residents.…”

“…Pedra Branca State Park, located in the massif of the same name, was established in 1974, covers an area of 12,500 hectares in the city of Rio de Janeiro, and is considered the most significant urban forest in Brazil (Herzog & Finotti, 2013). Harboring fauna and flora species native to the Atlantic forest biome, as well as waterfalls, river springs, and water reservoirs, this park encompasses a famous forest formation in an urban area (Costa et al, 2009;Herzog & Finotti, 2013;Iwama et al, 2014).…”

Spotted fever group rickettsioses are emerging diseases. In some of these diseases, domestic dogs act as sentinels. Canine serological studies have demonstrated that rickettsial dispersion is concentrated in rural areas, seroprevalence being higher where human rickettsioses are endemic. In Rio de Janeiro, the Atlantic forest vegetation has been devastated by urbanization. In this context, we aimed to detect Rickettsia spp. in urban areas of the West Zone of Rio de Janeiro. Sera from 130 dogs were tested by Indirect Immunofluorescence Assay, and ticks collected from these dogs were tested by polymerase chain reaction. We found the rate of serological reactions against R. rickettsii and R. parkeri in our study area to exceed those of rural and non-endemic areas, highlighting the importance of dogs as urban sentinels. The possibility of contact with opossums and capybaras increased the chances of exposure to Rickettsia spp., reinforcing the hypothetical link between the landscape and the rickettsial wild cycle. Rhipicephalus sanguineus sensu lato was the tick most frequently observed. PCR-positive samples showed similarity with R. rickettsii and R. felis, an emerging pathogen rarely reported from ticks. We observed that rickettsiae circulate in urban places and ticks from indoor environments, which may be involved in bacterial epidemiology.

“…The implementation of Ecological Corridors depends on Political decision-making and involves land issues. The situation of consolidated use of most of the studied landscape requires solutions that avoid expropriation and conflicts, like sustainable use UCs, or actions under the Rural Environmental Registry (CAR) or Environmental Regularization Programs (Iwama et al, 2014).…”

Landscape management aiming to reconnect isolated vegetation patches through corridors is important to mitigate impacts on fauna and flora species due to habitat degradation and fragmentation. This work presents a methodology based on geoprocessing tools to define ecological corridors. This case study was conducted on Distrito Federal, central Brazil, aiming to propose a corridor for large and mediumsized mammals reconnecting Águas Emendadas Ecological Station and Formosa Military Training Area. Cost analysis using geoprocessing tools and available official database generated three paths (A, B, C) Extension varied from 28.88 (A) to 47.34 km (C) and paths intersection with natural vegetation patches varied from 74.43 (A) to 90.35% (B). Intersection with potential Permanent Preservation Areas (APPs) varied from 66.32 (A) to 86.26% (C). Overlap with private properties registered on Rural Environmental Registry (CAR) was verified for best paths A and B and revealed 51.60% and 50.97% of overlap. Cost analysis tools and AHP were considered efficient for generating ecological corridors.

“…Não se desconhecem aqui as críticas e os conflitos suscitados no bojo dos processos de criação destes espaços territoriais (SPINOLA, 2013;GUATURA et al, 1996), particularmente no Rio de Janeiro (IWAMA et al, 2014;GONÇALVES, 2011;KURY, 2009). Por outro lado, não se pode ignorar sua importância para a preservação da biodiversidade brasileira e seu potencial de valorização das comunidades tradicionais, desde que criadas em respeito aos princípios da participação e da publicidade, por exemplo.…”

O presente artigo tem como objetivo discutir e produzir apontamentos sobre o uso das Unidades de Conservação, federais e estaduais, localizadas no Rio de Janeiro, como unidades territoriais de planejamento governamental, relevando o ecoturismo como alternativa ao padrão primário-exportador de desenvolvimento, pautado em grandes projetos de investimento. Esse padrão degrada os biomas brasileiros, fragmenta o território e acentua desigualdades sociais e regionais. Estudos sobre o ecoturismo têm o papel de contribuir para a consolidação de uma alternativa a esse padrão de desenvolvimento. Para tanto, metodologicamente, optou-se por uma pesquisa exploratória-descritiva e por uma abordagem interdisciplinar, integrando conhecimentos, conceitos e métodos aplicados ao recorte proposto, com ênfase nas contribuições das áreas do Turismo, das Ciências Ambientais e do Planejamento Regional. Foram tecidas considerações gerais e específicas quanto aos desafios e às possibilidades de consolidação do ecoturismo como a atividade central para se avançar em um padrão de desenvolvimento integrado, participativo e de longo prazo. Ecotourism: Nature Conservation as an Alternative to Large Investment Projects (LIPs) in Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil The objective of this paper is to discuss and produce notes on the use of federal and state Protect Areas located in Rio de Janeiro as territorial units for governmental planning, highlighting ecotourism as an alternative to the primary exporting pattern of development, based on large investment projects. This pattern degrades the Brazilian biomes, fragments the territory and accentuates social and regional inequalities. Studies on ecotourism have the role of contributing to the consolidation of an alternative to this pattern of development. For that, methodologically, an exploratory-descriptive research and a interdisciplinary approach were chosen, integrating knowledge, concepts and methods applied to the proposed cut, with emphasis on the contributions of the areas of Tourism, Environmental Sciences and Regional Planning. General and specific considerations regarding the challenges and possibilities for the consolidation of ecotourism as a central activity were developed to advance an integrated, participatory and long-term development pattern. KEYWORDS: Ecotourism; Development; Rio de Janeiro; Major Investment Projects; Conservation.
