O Parque Nacional do Itatiaia (PNI) é uma Unidade de Conservação de proteção integral, que tem por objetivo preservar ambientes aquáticos e terrestres da região da mata atlântica em virtude de sua beleza e raridade. A conservação do PNI depende diretamente das áreas ao redor e o uso irregular destas áreas circunvizinhas impacta negativamente nos processos ecológicos do parque. Observando essa problemática o presente estudo visa analisar a expansão antrópica na região oeste do município de Resende – RJ, em relação ao PNI. Realizaram-se pesquisas bibliográfica e documental sobre o Plano Diretor (PD) do município de Resende e o Plano de Manejo (PM) do PNI. Através de processos de geoprocessamento com base na legislação vigente, analisou-se documentos cartográficos processados a partir da vetorização de shapefiles no Arcgis 10.2 e análise temporal nos anos de 2003, 2013 e 2017 dos dados disponíveis no Google Earth. Os resultados demonstram diminuição das pastagens e aumento do número de edificações ao longo dos anos de estudo. O PM do PNI e o PD de Resende consideram o entorno do parque como uma região sujeita a restrições de atividades humanas, com o intuito de minimizar os impactos negativos ao parque. Contudo, por falta de integração entre os planos alguns pontos se tornam divergentes, muito em decorrência do PD não levar em consideração a zona de amortecimento (ZA) do PNI. Conclui-se o controle da ação antrópica na região é fundamental para garantia e preservação do PNI no município de Resende, a fim de promover um desenvolvimento sustentável. Analysis of the anthropic expansion in the western region of the municipality of Resende - RJ, in relation to the Itatiaia National Park The National Park of Itatiaia (PNI) is a Conservation Unit of integral protection, whose objective is to preserve aquatic and terrestrial environments of the region of the Atlantic forest due to its beauty and rarity. The conservation of the PNI depends directly on the surrounding areas and the irregular use of the surrounding areas has a negative impact on the ecological processes of the park. Observing this problem, the present study aims to analyze the anthropic expansion in the western region of the city of Resende - RJ, in relation to the PNI. Bibliographical and documentary research on the Master Plan (PD) of the municipality of Resende and the Management Plan (PM) of the PNI were carried out. Through geoprocessing processes based on the current legislation, we analyzed cartographic documents processed from the vectorization of shapefiles in Arcgis 10.2 and temporal analysis in the years 2003, 2013 and 2017 of the data available in Google Earth. The results demonstrate a reduction of pastures and an increase in the number and buildings throughout the study years. The PM of the PNI and the PD of Resende consider the surroundings of the park as a region subject to restrictions of human activities, in order to minimize the negative impacts to the park. However, due to lack of integration between the plans some points become divergent, much as the PD does not take into account the buffer zone (ZA) of the PNI. The control of the anthropic action in the region is fundamental to guarantee and preserve the PNI in the municipality of Resende, in order to promote a sustainable development.

In May 1974 Ghana created its first high forest national park. This is a forest reserve in the Bia tributaries area of the Western Region, comprising 118 square miles of some of the highest forest in West Africa, including primary unlogged forest, with an annual rainfall of 57 inches spread over ten to eleven months. The area was chosen partly for the large numbers of elephants and monkeys. The possibility of a forest national park in this region has been under consideration for at least five years; success was achieved after lengthy negotiations under the keen direction of the Chief Game and Wildlife Officer, Dr E. O. A. Asibey.

Subjective Grouping

The degradation status of 88 sample plots situated in two plant communities in the western region of Etosha National Park was determined. Herbaceous species frequency was correlated by means of an ordination technique with utilisation intensities. Species were categorised in ecological categories (Decreasers and Increasers) according to their abundance along a degradation gradient. This more objective approach is compared with an initial subjective grouping of species. The dangers of blindly following the ordinated results are discussed, and it is concluded that ordination results need to be verified by careful ecological interpretation.

Growing Conditions

The current study deals with the development of scientific strategies for growing bioenergy crops in Ukraine that will assist the increasing of biomass in energy balance of Ukraine. Experimental research studies on determining the growth characteristics and development of energy willow on soddy ash gray soil according to the farming cultivation was carried out on the research fields of the Carpathian State Agricultural experimental station of the Institute of Agriculture in the Carpathian region of the NAAN and in laboratory conditions. The features of growth and development of energy willow varieties according to the growing conditions of the Western region for biofuels production was studied on the basis of quadruplex repetition. It was found that energy willow in the conditions of the Western region in terms of mineral fertilization with N40P300K300 and with the help of increasing the planting step to 60 cm influences the intensive noduling of vegetative mass. In this version the biggest height shoots (180 cm) is fixed. The increasing of seeding step from 40 cm to 60 cm in energy willow planting allows to get additionally 4,2 t/ ha of green mass and 1,9 t/ ha of dry mass. Mineral fertilization provides the increase of the productivity of 2,1 - 2,5 t/ ha of green mass and 0,5 - 1,0 t/ha of dry mass. On the basis of analyses of weeds change we can conclude that application of mechanical processing allowed to control the wild grass at possible level. However, some time after the treatments, shoots of annual and perennial weeds appeared. But the interrow tillage and bringing the herbicides provided practically full keeping down the weeds in the first half of willow vegetation
