Vazão Ecológica e o Arcabouço Legal Brasileiro (Instream flow and the Brazilian legal framework)

Abstract: O aumento na demanda de água para múltiplos usos, tais como irrigação, abastecimento público, industrial, geração de energia elétrica, entre outros, resulta na degradação ambiental e em conflitos pelo uso da água, especialmente no que concerne à conservação dos ecossistemas aquáticos naturais. O reconhecimento da alteração hidrológica causada por tais demandas e da sua consequente degradação ambiental, em uma escala global, conduziu aos estudos de ecohidrologia, ou seja, das inter-relações funcionais entre hid… Show more

“…At its core, the environmental flows concept recognizes that societies benefit directly (for example, via food production) and indirectly (for example, by supporting industry, recreation, and cultural identity) by allowing free-flowing water to support aquatic ecosystems ( 9 ). Several pioneering studies have sought to identify the gap between the state of the art globally and within Brazil’s legal framework on the subject of environmental flows ( 47 49 ), and some have worked to adapt and apply holistic environmental flows methodologies to specific cases within Brazil ( 50 , 51 ).…”

“…Despite this progress, implementation of environmental flows methods and policies remains in the early stages of development in Brazil ( 47 , 52 ). Particularly lacking in this context is a basin-wide characterization of the type and magnitude of dam-induced changes to the hydrologic regime and a synthesis of the environmental and management variables that drive alteration.…”
