Thus, the present study provides an analysis of the occurrence of floods in the city of Campos do Jordão - SP (Brazil)
based on data from the Geological Institute. These data refer to the number of residents and buildings affected by flooding, as well as hydrological and landscape features of affected areas. The results show that 51 points were recorded flood. These points are in a consolidated urban areas, especially in Capivari neighborhood. The results show how the behavior of occurrence of floods in the area and can serve as a basis for the adoption of risk management policies.

It includes three main steps: 1) identification of risks likely to happen in the area, 2) analysis of the risks identified in the previous step, and 3) risk evaluation, i.e., the comparison between the estimate risk and the predefined risk criteria to assess the significance of a risk. There are diverse methods to perform risk assessment; however the probability and consequence matrix has been widely used, by different risk management agencies worldwide, because its application is straightforward and adaptable to different contexts. This study adapts the probability and consequence matrix method to Brazilian context, in Campos do Jordão City (SP), guided by the ISO 31010 standard. The risk likelihood was determined through a research for disasters on newspapers in the last ten years and

disasters recorded on the Civil Defense database. The risk consequences were assessed through interviews with managers and agents from risk management institutions, for example the city hall, fire department, civil defence, universities and politicians. Using these two criteria, likelihood and consequences, the main risks for the study area are: landslides, floods, frosts and forest fires. These results are relevant for the improvement of the current risk management in Campos do Jordão City (SP).
Keywords: Risk assesment, Risk matrix, Campos do Jordão (Brazil).

TO NATURAL EXPOSURE TO RADON
In order to establish an initial survey of explanatory factors of vulnerability to natural exposure to Radon, this article
presents a literature review looking for some parameters that may explain the higher or lower recurrence contamination through natural exposure of populations to radioactive element. These factors were divided into three different orders as follows: natural and environmental conditions; construction and housing conditions; and health habits and social characteristics of exposed populations. From the establishment of those criteria were listed a series of data that can give clues about the vulnerability to natural exposure to radon, as lithology of the area, number of floors of buildings, number of rooms of buildings, age of buildings, number of men and women exposed, number of people smoking the
exposed population, among others. In a later stage of the research, a mapping will be conducted in a pilot study area, so that they can be observed and the results are validated or changed the established the parameters.

Se por um lado, o século foi marcado pelos avanços tecnológicos ele também mostrou o quanto a sociedade humana que cresce exponencialmente está cada vez mais exposta ao acontecimento de eventos catastró cos.

Diante disso, este trabalho objetiva apresentar uma proposta metodológica para a identificação de áreas suscetíveis a esses processos, adotando como área de estudo-piloto a cidade de São João del-Rei, Minas Gerais (Brasil). A metodologia parte da utilização do Modelo Numérico de Terreno para a elaboração dos índices morfométricos de Concentração de Rugosidade, Hack, Densidade de Drenagem e Hipsometria, os quais foram justapostos por meio da Álgebra de Mapas, conforme sua relação com os processos supracitados. O processo resultou em dois modelos passíveis de utilização no planejamento urbano, sendo um de suscetibilidade à inundação, e outro, a movimentos de massa. Ambos foram validados e apresentaram pertinência com o meio ...

Os procedimentos investigativos realizados incluíram a identificação, análise e avaliação dos riscos e desastres em cada localidade, buscando assim entender melhor a sua manifestação. A identificação dos desastres das duas áreas de estudo abordadas foi realizada com base na pesquisa hemerográfica, onde foram consultadas notícias dos jornais locais entre 2001 e 2013 para estabelecer quais os desastres mais recorrentes nas áreas da pesquisa. Para a análise dos riscos foram realizadas consultas aos stakeholders - especialistas, autoridades e representantes de organizações formadores de opinião pública - para a definiç...

In this scenario, we emphasize the teaching of geography for the visually impaired, blind and low vision students, focusing more specifically on the graphics in teaching geography. The objective of this paper is to report the experiences obtained from August 2008 to August 2009 by UNESP at Rio Claro extension group entitled "Tactile Cartography and MAPAVOX: An alternative way to construct tactile maps and games". During practices conducted for this paper histograms and pie charts were constructed with active participation of students in the whole process. The methodology used in this article was the qualitative research in education, creating an unparalleled analysis of the results and building reports from practices at special school. The final built tactile charts turned to be an important alternative method for teaching graphics for blind and low vision students, using simple features such as low cost materials and taking into account the concern and understanding of visually impaired students in the construction of tactile graphics. The survey results used as the basis for the article will also serve as the basis for the construction of a guide book for teachers who have students who are blind or have low vision in her classroom.</p>

Nesse sentido foram observados 28 cadernos bimestrais com a finalidade de quantificar o numero de representacoes cartograficas presentes. Das representacoes cartograficas totais observadas foram levadas em consideracao apenas os mapas em anamorfose, que foram classificados de acordo com as diferentes tipologias existentes. Os resultados mostram que das 4 tipologias principais de tecnica em anamorfose, somente uma nao foi observada no material analisado, mostrando que os alunos da rede publica tem um contato minimo com esse tipo de representacao, no entanto, apenas 3% das representacoes quantificadas no material didatico se referem a mapas em anamorfose, o que representa um numero...

These levels can be applied to different methods of spatial representations. The reading space in the question level allows the reader of the representation establish the reading of the geographic space presented in two forms: the level of detail question and the level of global question. The first allows answers to questions such as "what place? what's there?", while the second allows answer for the question “in what place is this data value?”. The reading space on the upper level requires the reader a spatial analysis, in what should be done a correlation between different thematic values presented by representation in different localities. With the purpose of observing these different levels of spatial rea...

After reviewing the literature, 12 themes of variables compose the quantitative dataset from which the simplified indicator of social vulnerability was calculated. Accordingly, the list of information provided by CENSO 2010 allowed us to determine 9 variables related to the following thematic axes: Education, Ethnicity, Gender, Age, Income, Living Condition, Household composition, Infrastructure, and Basic Services. After the collection and tabulation of these data, an index was created and spatialized in order to establish the representation of vulnerability in the two study areas. Finally, it was possible to properly observe the areas that are most vulnerable and the areas with the lowest vulnerability, w...
