As ondas de frio são períodos de declínio acentuado da temperatura do ar que podem causar prejuízos econômicos e problemas de saúde pública. Por isso, a previsão desses sistemas atmosféricos se faz importante. Nesse sentido, o objetivo do presente estudo é validar a previsão do modelo GFS em três casos de ondas de frio (OF) sobre Estado de São Paulo e Triângulo Mineiro. Para isso, foi feita a análise sinótica de três OF a partir das condições iniciais do GFS, e de parâmetros observados em 22 estações meteorológicas automáticas (EMA) do INMET, que foram agrupadas em três categorias dependendo do tipo de relevo (topo, encosta e baixada). Foram validadas as previsões de 72, 48 e 24 horas dos campos sinóticos em relação às análises do modelo e aos dados medidos em EMA. As análises estatísticas indicaram que nos três casos houve um viés predominantemente negativo na previsão de T2M, sendo mais acentuado no horário das 0900 UTC, próximo do horário da temperatura mínima; as EMA de baixada apresentaram um erro médio maior. Nos campos sinóticos, foi constatado nos três casos que o viés das variáveis atmosféricas tende a diminuir com a aproximação do dia pico da OF, com maiores erros na previsão de 72 horas. Validation of the forecasting of three cold waves by GFS model over Center-North of São Paulo State and Triângulo Mineiro A B S T R A C TCold waves are periods of sharp decline in air temperature that can cause economic damage and public health problems. Therefore, the forecast of these atmospheric systems is important. Then, the objective of the present study is to validate the prediction of the Global Forecast System (GFS) model in three cases of cold waves (OF) over São Paulo State and Triângulo Mineiro. For this purpose, synoptic analysis of the three OF was made through the initial conditions of the GFS and parameters observed in 22 automatic meteorological stations (EMA) from INMET, which were grouped into three categories depending on the type of topography (top, slope and valley). The 72, 48 and 24-hour predictions of the synoptic fields were validated in relation to the analysis of the model and the data measured at EMA. Statistical analysis showed a negative bias in the T2M forecast in the three cases of OF bias, being more pronounced at 0900 UTC, close to the minimum temperature time; EMA located in valley had a higher average error. In the synoptic fields, the bias of atmospheric variables tends to decrease with the approach of the peak day of OF, with greater errors in the 72-hour forecast.Keywords: cold waves, southeastern Brazil, weather forecast, GFS model

The clinical and laboratory data of a disease in a resident of Ribeira Valley, São Paulo State, southeastern Brazil, caused by an agent close or identical to Caraparu, a Group C arbovirus, was described. Although there is evidence of an intensive circulation of several arboviruses in the area, no diagnosis of human disease by these agents has been made, except the encephalitis cases caused by Rocio virus during an epidemic in 1975-1977. An antigenic difference between Caraparu strains isolated in São Paulo and in Pará States and a close antigenic relationship between Caraparu strain from São Paulo and Bruconha virus were suggested by the serological tests.

The herpetofauna of São Paulo State, Brazil, can be characterized as the most well-known in the country. However, despite the large number of studies in this area, there are still many sampling gaps within biomes such as the Atlantic Forest that are considered global conservation priorities due to the high rate of endemism and human disturbance. As a result of political and historical pressure, this biome has been reduced to less than 12% of its original extent and, despite its importance for global biodiversity conservation, only a small percentage of its original vegetation cover (1%) has some form of legal protection. This is the case of the Parque Estadual Turístico do Alto Ribeira (PETAR) which, together with the Parque Estadual de Intervales, Parque Estadual Carlos Botelho and Mosaico de Unidades de Conservação de Jacupiranga, forms of an ombrophilous forest continuum of 360 thousand ha in the south of São Paulo State. This study presents a list of amphibians and reptiles from the PETAR, with information on the local distribution and habitat use of the species. The survey was conducted from October to December 2009, completing a total of 15 sampling days using four complementary methods of active sampling: visual encounters, auditory encounters, searches by car and incidental encounters. We recorded a total of 91 species belonging to 53 genera and 24 families. This high diversity can be attributed to the existence of a wide variety of habitats and microhabitats in this region, such as the various aquatic sites used by many species of anuran amphibians. Moreover, the PETAR features a large altitudinal gradient (80 - 1,160 m elevation) that gives a large climatic, geological and hydrological heterogeneity to the area. This inventory is an important contribution to the expansion of knowledge about these assemblages in the Atlantic Forest to the south of Serra de Paranapiacaba mountain range, and provides support for the conservation of these groups in São Paulo State.

Fish were studied in two river basins (Corumbataí and Jacaré-Pepira) subjected to strong human pressure, in the interior of the State of São Paulo, southeastern Brazil. In the Corumbataí basin, four sites were sampled: Cabeça river, Lapa stream, Passa-Cinco river, and Corumbataí river; in the Jacaré-Pepira basin, three sites were sampled: Tamanduá stream, Jacaré-Pepira river, and Água Branca stream. A total of 4,050 specimens belonging to 48 species and 13 families were caught and analyzed.

ABSTRACT In Brazil, specifically in São Paulo State, there are guidelines based on the high diversity of tropical forests that instructs the restoration projects in the state (current SMA 32/2014). The main goal of this study was verify the importance and effectiveness of the high diversity of arboreal species originated from a reforestation, and its influence in a woody regenerating composition. We developed a phytosociologic study in a woody regenerating stratum of a nine year old reforestation at a Private Reserve of Natural Heritage (RPPN), in Mogi-Guaçu, São Paulo State. All specimens with height > 30 cm and Diameter at Breast Height (DBH) < 5 cm were evaluated. The woody regenerating diversity was smaller than the overstory diversity and the species composition was similar to the overstory. The Simpson index (1-D) was 0.85, Shannon index (H') was 2.46 and the Pielou index (J') was 0.60. The zoochoric dispersion syndrome was major among the species. Our results suggest that the use of high diversity of native seedlings in a reforestation leads to high diversity of species in woody regeneration stratum, after one decade of planting.
