The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development includes Sustainable Development Goal 6, which recognizes the importance of protecting and restoring aquatic ecosystems. Human activities affect the natural processes of ecological systems through physical and chemical interventions, directly interfering with biodiversity. In aquatic ecosystems, the phytoplankton community and, particularly, cya…
Assessing the water quality of lakes and reservoirs is a fundamental step in active environmental management programs. In addition to the classic procedures for in situ water samples collecting, complementary approaches are also interesting. This work aims to study comparatively numerous São Paulo reservoirs, using remote sensing techniques, using images from the Sentinel 2 satellite (A a…
The eutrophication process and, consequently, the proliferation of potentially toxic cyanobacteria is increasing in frequency, magnitude and duration. This increase represents an ecological risk for the reservoirs, which may interfere with ecosystem services such as the multiple uses (good water quality for public supply, irrigation, fishing and recreation) that these ecosystems provide. …
Most reservoirs in São Paulo State have their watersheds intensely occupied by anthropogenic and urban uses. These uses added to incipient sanitary coverage, give a worrying future for these ecosystems, as observed in Billings and Guarapiranga Reservoirs, both located in São Paulo city. Billings and Guarapiranga Reservoirs have a long negative quality of its waters, culminating with near…

The potentially toxic metals are among the pollutants of most concern to aquatic environments. The Cantareira System is the main supplier of water for the Metropolitan Region of São Paulo. In recent years, there has been systematic application of copper in Atibainha downstream, leading to the hypothesis that the Paiva Castro reservoir is contaminated. It is recognized that contaminants te…
Reservoirs have their own dynamic, influenced by both external and internal factors. They have horizontal and vertical gradients and a continuous flow of water toward the dam. Eutrophication is a major problem in reservoirs, because it is associated with reduced water quality, and one consequence is the increase in biomass in the community of primary producers. The physical structure of t…
