Especialização produtiva do agronegócio canavieiro em Quirinópolis (GO)
O artigo tem como objetivo analisar o processo de especialização territorial produtiva do município de Quirinópolis (GO), ocasionado pelo agronegócio canavieiro no século XXI. Ressalta-se que uma nova dinâmica se estabelece nesse setor a partir dos anos 2000, com fatores como o financiamento do BNDES, a introdução da tecnologia flex fuel, a criação do Plano Nacional de Agroenergia, as influências do Protocolo de Kyoto e o crescimento geral da produção de commodities no Brasil. Esses processos incentivaram a expansão da produção de cana-de-açúcar e a reorganização territorial no Sul Goiano, transformando Quirinópolis em um importante centro da dinâmica canavieira. Para tanto, a pesquisa, com base em levantamento bibliográfico, coleta de dados secundários e trabalho de campo, investiga as implicações das atividades canavieiras para o município. Conclui-se que há uma especialização territorial produtiva, evidenciada pela concentração de atividades, que representam 37% dos empregos locais, além de uma crescente dependência econômica do setor.

Memories on the margins: a spatial analysis of Quarto de Despejo by Carolina Maria de Jesus
This article aims to explore the spatial dimension from the perspective of the favela, as represented in Quarto de Despejo by Carolina Maria de Jesus. Accordingly, we establish an analysis that fosters a dialogue between Geography and Literature, highlighting how literary narratives can serve as a powerful means of spatial representation. To this end, we adopt an inductive and qualitative research approach, grounded in interdisciplinary knowledge. Through the author's diary, we identify the construction of an imaginary in which the favela emerges as a space of exclusion and resistance, marked by precariousness, social marginalization, and structural inequalities. Therefore, we conclude that by depicting the favela as the city's "dumping room," Carolina encodes the urban space in its symbolic dimensions, intertwining individual and collective experiences to expose the contradictions of Brazilian urbanization.

Cadeia Socioprodutiva do Cumbaru/Baru (Dipteryx Alata Vog.): Potencial de Produção e Circuito de Comercialização.
A native tree of the cerrado, the Cumbaru, or Baru (Dipteryx alata), is a natural resource of Sociobiodiversity occurring in the central west region, its commercialization has been gaining prominence in the national and international market. This research aims to analyze the production potential and the marketing circuit in the municipalities of Nossa Senhora do Livramento and Poconé, both in the State of Mato Grosso. The methodology is qualitative and quantitative in nature, Survey research technique, structured questionnaires were applied using the Snowball sampling method. The results showed that commercialization brings significant financial results, especially in the production of raw and roasted almonds, also contributing to supplementary income for communities, especially for women extractivists. Challenges that impact the development of the production chain were identified. Among them, the distance between the collection areas, transportation and the limited infrastructure for storing the fruit stands out. Furthermore, there is low technology in the processing process and low actions aimed at the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity by social organizations involved in commercialization. In this context, the data provides valuable information to consider development actions and strengthening the Cumbaru production chain for the region.

Ecocídio e Direitos Humanos: O que está acontecendo com o Pantanal?
This paper aims to examine the evolution of the concept of the crime of Ecocide, the challenges for its international criminalization, as well as the need for an integrated approach to environmental preservation, with a focus on the Brazilian Pantanal. The research is descriptive, qualitative, and exploratory. Bibliographical and cataloging sources were used for this research. The analysis demonstrates that, despite the numerous environmental damages caused by human actions, such as deforestation, recurrent fires, indiscriminate use of pesticides, and small hydropower plants (PCHs), the concept of ecocide still lacks international consensus, as well as its criminalization, particularly with the inclusion of a climatic reference. Furthermore, it is necessary to formulate a specific law for the protection of the Pantanal, considering its particularities, seeking the harmonization of national and international laws that recognize humans as part of nature, based on a global effort for continuous awareness and preservation, ensuring a healthy environment for present and future generations.

The Aromas Cartography of Goiânia Downtown
The aim of this article is to understand some cartographies of the aromas in the center of the capital of the state of Goiás, Goiânia, problematizing the meanings of this spatiality in the processes of mapping urban landscapes. These reflections are based on a perspective of plural cartographies that allow access to other ways of mapping olfactory landscapes, transcending the limited spheres of visibility that employ a simplistic definition in Geography that the landscape is all that can be seen. Through these other “lenses”, we can see that these olfactory experiences, whether pleasant or not, are full of perceptions and information that reveal how people interact with the downtown of Goiânia, revealing the uses of these spaces.

EFFECTIVENESS OF PLANTING SEEDLINGS OF NATIVE SPECIES FOR THE RESTORATION OF CERRADO CONVERTED INTO PASTURE
The restoration of degraded areas in the Cerrado biome is crucial, but not always successful. The introduction of exotic species, such as grasses, negatively alters soil cover and increases the amount of flammable material. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the recovery of a pasture area restored 10 years ago with the planting of native seedlings. The analysis considered the thickness of the litter layer (positive) and the presence of Brachiaria (negative). Twenty plots were compared (10 in native Cerrado and 10 in the recovering area). Brachiaria, absent in the native Cerrado, persisted in the restored area (5% to 100% cover). The litter layer was thicker in the native Cerrado (15 mm thicker). The results indicate that the recovering area has not yet re-established its respective ecosystem functions, such as nutrient cycling, which is hampered by the persistence of the exotic grass. Brachiaria, in addition to inhibiting the growth of native plants, increases the risk of fire. The persistence of Brachiaria and the slow recovery of the litter layer show that restoration still needs attention to ensure long-term success.

O Trabalho dos Catadores de Materiais Recicláveis e Reutilizáveis em São Luís no Contexto do Maranhão Contemporâneo
These are the results of a master's dissertation on the performance, organization and work developed by collectors of recyclable and reusable materials in the context of the contemporary state of Maranhão, including the associated collectors who work in São Luis. The research was carried out through bibliographic research, analysis of technical reports, subsequent collection of official data (IBGE, SNIS), namely final disposal of municipal solid waste, presence of collectors and collector villages near landfills, field visits to municipal landfills and interviews with associated collectors who work in São Luís. The socioeconomic situation of the collectors is dramatic, many work in landfills in totally unsanitary conditions and without any visibility from the government or society, the presence of collectors under 14 years old, and collector villages near final disposal units such as landfills are a reality of social and environmental crisis. There are only 5 sorting shed-type units operated by collectors in the state of Maranhão. In São Luís, the collectors are organized, work in recycling sorting units, receive material donations and establish partnerships with the government, state departments and private institutions. However, they live on an income below 1 minimum wage, with no employment guarantees or FGTS. The drop in the price of recyclable material is one of the main problems, and all the material collected and sorted by the collectors is sold to middlemen, who sell to companies located in other states, São Paulo, Pará, Ceará and Santa Catarina.

Multitemporal analysis of the coastline of the Maracá Jipioca ecological station, state of Amapá
Conservation units are strategies adopted by the government to preserve areas of significant environmental interest, being incorporated as instruments of the National Environmental Policy of 1981. Created by Federal Decree No. 86.061, on June 2, 1981, with the main objective of ensuring the permanent protection of ecosystems and natural resources, the Maracá-Jipioca Ecological Station (EEMJ), with an original area of 58,756.95 hectares, represents one of the most restrictive categories of the National System of Conservation Units (SNUC). As it is a coastal island located at the mouth of the Amazon River, where it meets the Atlantic Ocean, the EEMJ presents unique characteristics, with intense dynamic processes that continuously shape and alter its form. The objective of this article is to use remote sensing images to conduct a multitemporal analysis of the variation in the coastline of the Maracá Jipioca Ecological Station up to the year 2023. The results indicate intense morphological variations, with a predominance of erosive processes. The reshaping of the conservation unit’s landscape is influenced by the dynamics of the Amazon River, the Atlantic Ocean, and atmospheric processes. For management purposes, the territorial extension of the unit is important for both monitoring actions and legal validation, as well as for the constant updating of the unit's boundaries, given its unique location in one of the most dynamic areas on the planet.

Geodiversidade para o Ensino da Geografia: um estudo de caso no Parque Municipal do Bacaba, Nova Xavantina, Mato Grosso, Brasil
The challenges of Basic Education in Brazil include, among several other aspects, the selection of content and didactic-pedagogical resources to achieve learning objectives. However, concepts such as Geodiversity, which are essential for understanding the physical-natural processes of planet Earth, are not present in the National Common Curricular Base. Bacaba Municipal Park, located in the municipality of Nova Xavantina, Mato Grosso, serves as a fieldwork site for local and regional schools to address biodiversity. However, the geosites have not been identified and characterized for inclusion in these activities. In this sense, the aim of this article is to propose the direct application of geodiversity content in Basic Education through field activities in the Conservation Unit to enhance learning through Geoeducation and greater integration between practice and theory. The methodology employed was bibliographic research and field surveys using an observation form and the Ultra GPS Logger App to georeference points and subsequently create a map of the geosites' locations. Eight geosites were identified, considering the relevance of the geodiversity elements of the Conservation Unit in terms of geological, geomorphological, pedological aspects and the National Common Curricular Base. Subsequently, the attributes of geodiversity and the learning objectives for each geosite in the Conservation Unit were outlined. Geodiversity is a concept that relates to Geography education and has broad potential to mobilize knowledge, stimulate investigation, and foster geographical reasoning.

Da política ambiental nacional para a gestão territorial municipal: perspectivas sobre o regime jurídico de regularização fundiária urbanística no município de Barra do Garças - MT.
Considerando as dificuldades encontradas para a implementação, desenvolvimento e execução de políticas de regularização fundiária urbana no município de Barra do Garças/MT, objetiva-se analisar a importância da regulamentação fundiária jurídica e social nas regiões periféricas do município, de modo a propiciar aos habitantes das áreas irregulares melhorias na garantia de direitos e na qualidade de vida. Para tanto, por meio do método hipotético-dedutivo, procede-se à análise do panorama histórico que cercou o processo de urbanização brasileiro, do arcabouço normativo e o impacto que o REURB causou no contexto socioespacial da população até a caracterização do estado de Mato Grosso e do município de Barra do Garças. Desse modo, observa-se que as políticas públicas municipais regulatórias se mostram insuficientes para a efetivação dos direitos à cidade, o que permite concluir que o programa de Regularização Fundiária Urbana não deve se resumir à mera titulação e adequação jurídica. Para alcançar a garantia dos direitos à cidade se faz necessário a implementação de efetivas políticas públicas, que levem desenvolvimento e planejamento equânime à população necessitada, incorporando-a, por fim, ao corpo social e pujante da Cidade.

Characterization of green areas in the municipality of Maracanau - CE
This research aims to analyze the presence of green areas in the municipality of Maracanaú - CE. In order to achieve the objectives set, the study in question is based on the methodology proposed by Bargos (2010) for evaluating and classifying green areas, and on the calculations of Percentage of Green Areas (PAV) and Green Area Index per Inhabitant (IAVHab). The areas were mapped using QGis software on a scale of 1/2,000 meters. In addition to quantifying and qualifying the distribution of existing green areas, an analysis was carried out using the parameters discussed. The results show that out of 39 neighborhoods, only three have a level of quality of life considered good. From this, it can be concluded that the municipality of Maracanaú is increasingly losing its green areas in the face of accelerated population growth and industrial economic issues, as it is Ceará's largest industrial hub.

multi-view evaluation on semantic segmentation supported by deep neural networks for the Cerrado biome
While the semantic segmentation task has long been studied by the remote sensing (RS) community, it is a fact that deep neural networks (DNNs) have drawn attention due to the great interest and success of deep learning in several application domains. Even if there are so many studies and experiments using DNNs for RS semantic segmentation, an in-depth multi-view evaluation considering not only different DNNs but also distinct types of images (optical, multispectral) and satellite sensors with diverse spatial resolutions is still missing. In this article, we present one of such an experimentation where we considered images of three different satellites, i.e. Landsat-8 (30 m of spatial resolution), Sentinel-2 (10 m of spatial resolution), China-Brazil Earth Resources-4A (CBERS-4A; 8 m of spatial resolution), three classical DNNs, i.e. U-Net, DeepLabV3+, PSPNet, and two types of images (optical (RGB) and multispectral). Our study area is the Brazilian Cerrado biome and the choices of our evaluation focused more on the state-of-the-practice. We performed a thorough investigation and results show that DNNs and spatial resolution of satellite sensors are more relevant than the types of images. This conclusion is interesting because, eventually, researchers may rely on images with less number of channels (optical), decreasing the computational effort during training the DNNs.

Caracterização das vazões e condicionantes fisiográficas da Bacia hidrográfica do rio Pandeiros (MG)
A funcionalidade das bacias hidrográficas, está associada ao regime de vazões, cuja normalidade é refletida pela sua constância durante o ano. Tendo em vista que o rio Pandeiros (BHRP), se constitui como um importante tributário do médio São Francisco, buscou-se caracterizar as vazões e seus condicionantes fisiográficos. Revisões bibliográficas precederam a obtenção da série histórica de vazões e os atributos físicos que porventura as influenciam. As vazões demonstraram-se em constante declínio desde a década de 1990, com pico máximo em 1992 e mínimo em 2017. Associadas à precipitação, as vazões apresentaram correlação (p=0,57). A década de 2000 foi a mais chuvosa, com média anual de 978,9 mm, seguida pelas décadas de 1990 e 2010. A geologia e declividade demonstraram a tendência de retenção de água pela bacia, fator esse também expresso pelas análises morfométricas. Vale ressaltar também a presença voçorocamento e alterações do uso e cobertura da terra, fenômenos estes, que podem impactar na dinâmica hídrica da bacia. A BHRP apresenta um grande potencial de armazenamento de água, com tendência de as vazões não atingirem grandes picos. Estudos futuros são necessários para compreender o constante declínio da vazão e a possível influência antrópica nesta bacia.

Dynamics of land cover and use in the João Leite river basin (1985/2021) and assessment of the condition of legally protected areas
This study focuses on the Ribeirão João Leite watershed, as it is the scene of intense urban occupation and an increase in agricultural activities, with successive suppression of natural vegetation cover. The general objective was to investigate the dynamics of change in land cover and use in the Ribeirão João Leite Hydrographic Basin (BHRJL) between 1985 and 2021, assessing inconsistencies in the context of legally protected areas, especially Permanent Preservation Areas (APP) and Legal Reserves (RL). The methodology involved compiling and analyzing the annual mapping of land cover and land use, made available by Mapbiomas, and the cartographic base of the Rural Environmental Registry (CAR) - using Geographic Information Systems (GIS), specifically the QGIS software. The results indicated the predominance of the remaining natural Cerrado vegetation in the watershed under study. However, there has been a decrease in vegetation cover over the last 36 years, which has been converted to anthropic use, especially in urban areas and agriculture. With regard to the Permanent Preservation Areas (APP) and Legal Reserves (RL), it can be seen that almost half of their area is inconsistent with what is determined by environmental legislation, in terms of maintaining the natural vegetation cover and its ecosystem functions.

Voluntary Carbon Market: Opportunities for the Generation of High Quality Credits at Resex Gariba-Roosevelt, Mato Grosso, Brazil.
The article discusses the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to mitigate the negative impact of climate change and the importance of adopting an ecocentric perspective in the relationship between human beings and nature. The documentary study carried out at the RESEX Guariba-Roosevelt aimed to understand the functioning mechanisms of the carbon markets through a study at the RESEX Guariba-Roosevelt applying the main steps of a certification standard for reducing emissions. The descriptive and exploratory research adopted the Verified Carbon Standards (VCS) methodology for REDD+ projects and analyzed the dynamics of changes in land use with PRODES/INPE data for the period from 2007 to 2021. The results showed a deforestation rate of 6.5% considering the RESEX and the buffer zone as a spatial limit, which allowed the calculation of deforestation projections of 5,275.6142 hectares and emissions of 2,558,163 tCO²e to be avoided, verifying the additionality of the project when considering the limit RESEX space, resulting in a financial contribution of $9.8 million dollars for the time limit (2023-2025) of thirty years of the project. It was observed that carbon markets can contribute to tackling climate change and biodiversity loss, by building actions that seek to balance the relationship between those who generate externalities and society.

Mapeamento de susceptibilidade a incêndios florestais no Parque Nacional de Chapada dos Guimarães - MT
Currently, conservation units (CU), especially in the cerrado, have frequently been set on fire by the action of nature society. The development of preventive and fire-fighting measures is necessary in this biome. Therefore, the present work aimed to develop a parametric analysis of forest fire risks for the Chapada dos Guimarães National Park and its buffer zone (ZA) located in the State of Mato Grosso. Individual forest fire risk maps were prepared relating to the proximity of roads and urban areas (H), land use and coverage (U), slope (D), altimetry (A) and soil temperature (T) . The parametric analysis was carried out through the sum of the weighted average carried out using the values ​​stipulated for each variable according to its ignition influence, the equation was represented as: IR: 4H +3U + 1D + 1A + 1T. The results characterized the risk areas according to their classifications, presenting 5.97% of the land with extreme risk, 18.59% with high risk, 49.60% with moderate risk, 21.99% with low risk and 3 .85% with very low risk areas. However, the risk analysis revealed that the proximity to the urban areas of the ZA, to highways and the activities carried out by pasture and tourism, have been shown to be the main risk factors in the emergence of forest fire outbreaks, with the potential risk of entering the limits of the National Park.

WATER IMPLICATIONS OF DEFORESTATION IN THE CODOZINHO RIVER SUB-BASIN FROM 2002 TO 2021
The last three decades have seen a worrying increase in deforestation in many parts of Brazil, especially affecting the country's water resources, including in the state of Maranhão, where there are several water resources affected by this practice, such as the Codozinho river sub-basin, tributary of the Itapecuru river. The objective of this study was to research the deforestation process in the Codozinho river sub-basin and its water implications during the period from 2002 to 2021. To this end, we used the TerraBrasilis, MapBiomas and NASA databases to develop essential cartographic products for understanding the processes operating in the sub-basin. The results reveal that the upper course of the Codozinho river sub-basin suffered major losses of natural areas in the period from 2002 to 2010; and in the period from 2012 to 2021, deforestation occurred with diffuse clusters in the area, from the upper to the lower reaches. Fluviometric data indicate that there were water losses, but also associated with changes in rainfall regime. It is concluded that deforestation has affected the water availability of the basin and that measures to contain the process must be taken.

Survey of the Physical Environment and Land Use Classification by the Land Use Capability System at CCA/UFSCar
Investigating the natural propensity for land use is essential, especially in areas subject to intense human action. Using soil without considering its productive capacity can lead to underutilization or overutilization, resulting in inefficiency or severe damage. This study aimed to determine the land use capability at the Center for Agricultural Sciences (CCA) of the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar). By evaluating the morphological, physical, and chemical attributes of the soils, the land use capability was determined using the Land Use Capability System, which classifies soils according to their greatest limitation. It was found that the entire area falls into Group A, suitable for uses ranging from the preservation of fauna and flora to annual crops. However, there are differences in soil conservation needs observed among the classes. On the campus, class III predominates (94.14% of the total area), indicating areas with complex conservation and/or improvement problems; class II, with simpler issues, covers 2.31%, while 3.54% present serious soil conservation problems. In addition to the 23.78% of the area occupied by Permanent Preservation Area (APP) and Legal Reserve (RL), 67.59% of the area is being used appropriately, 3.54% above capacity, and 5.09% below. For overutilized areas, less intensive management or conservation designation, along with the implementation of recovery and erosion control practices, are recommended. Underutilized areas can be exploited to their full potential, while for adequately used areas, maintaining conservation practices is essential to ensure resource sustainability.

A educação e seus desafios contemporâneos: o contexto educacional no norte de Mato Grosso, através da implementação da alternância pedagógica no campo
Evolving is fundamental and a large part of our evolution is made possible by the acquisition of knowledge. Faced with the perspective of enabling formal knowledge integrated with agroecology for high school freshmen. Teachers from the city of Terra Nova do Norte, located about 629 km from the capital of Mato Grosso, Cuiabá, in the legal Amazon, founded the agricultural school Terra Nova. The institution's objective is to offer an innovative proposal committed to strengthening sustainable production in a state whose economic base is centered on monoculture and the indiscriminate use of nature. This article aims to analyze the institution's structural and pedagogical conditions, recognizing agroecological practices in the context of rural education in an area where much of the attention and public and private investments are focused on agribusiness. The methodology used was the case study, recognizing and acquiring all the necessary information about the institution's structuring process, as well as the behavior and objectives of the students when carrying out the selection process. Contact with students and educators took place through semi-structured interviews, where they reported their experience at the institution and the contributions of agroecological and pedagogical practices to their human formation. The Terra Nova agricultural school, located in the municipality of Terra Nova do Norte, founded in 2010, offers students, high school, education integrated with technical education in agroecology lasting four years. In an alternating and semi-boarding regime, an innovative curricular proposal is challenging the current educational aspirations, because at the end of the fourth year, the student concludes his basic and technical training, allowing continuity in the area or in other areas of knowledge in teaching superior and mainly transmitting the knowledge acquired during the four years to society. Its teaching staff and other professionals of the institution are true pillars in the implementation of the proposal. Like a large part of the pedagogical projects and proposals in force in Brazil, the school in Terra Nova has deficiencies, mainly related to the restructuring of its physical space and recognition by the public authorities of its pedagogical particularities. It is fundamental to have a differentiated look at all schools in the countryside, taking into account the geographical and cultural singularities of these spaces. The involvement of students, family members and especially educators are characterized as foundations for guaranteeing the project. Discipline, behavior and perspective on life are the institution's mechanisms, in addition to the basic proposal of strengthening the theoretical and technical knowledge of the productive and sustainable process.

Tactile Map Workshop: Inclusive Methodologies for Teaching Geography to Students with Visual Impairments
Inclusive special education is one of the topics much discussed in the educational field, and carrying it out safely and effectively has been an eminent challenge for many teachers, especially when it comes to methodologies for teaching geography. Therefore, this article aims to present an inclusive pedagogical practice through a workshop for producing tactile thematic maps using the Braille alphabet and low-cost materials with great social relevance. This possibility facilitates learning for students with visual impairment. Methodologically, the study results from a qualitative-quantitative perspective, with bibliographical research on inclusive education in Brazil, the use of Braille, and the importance of inclusive methodologies. Therefore, the work made it possible to understand the importance of teaching practice to guarantee meaningful teaching/learning for everyone so that the rights of students with visual impairments are respected and guaranteed.

Avaliação de impactos ambientais na microbacia do Igarapé Moura em Castanhal, Pará, Brasil
O presente trabalho é um estudo de caso, com caráter qualitativo, que foi utilizado técnicas de Avaliação de Impactos Ambientais (AIA), através da Matriz de Interação e a produção de mapas temáticos, para verificar os impactos de natureza física, biológica e antrópica, como também a influência da expansão urbana, na microbacia do Igarapé Moura, em Castanhal - PA. Os resultados demonstraram, no meio físico, a intensificação dos processos erosivos, modificação paisagística, alteração da drenagem natural e o assoreamento dos cursos d’água, classificados com grande magnitude e de importância significativa, devido à degradação do meio natural ser acentuada e possuir relação negativa de impacto ambiental. No meio biológico, o afugentamento da fauna silvestre, redução da quantidade de animais, perda de habitats e a diminuição das espécies vegetais, que foram caracterizados com grande magnitude e importância significativa, pois há diminuição da biodiversidade no local. No meio antrópico, as emissões de efluentes domésticos e industriais, geração de resíduos sólidos, alagamentos e as ocupações irregulares, ficaram identificadas com grande magnitude e importância significativa, enquanto as atividades agrossilvipastoris consistiram em pequena magnitude e de importância não significativa, o que não implica em uma alteração expressiva. Sobre a influência da expansão urbana e o uso e ocupação do solo, na área do igarapé, notou-se a perda da cobertura vegetal, especialmente, as matas ciliares e a fragmentação de APPs, com a intensa expansão da malha urbana entre os anos de 2003 a 2023, aumentando as áreas não vegetadas e, consequentemente, as ocupações irregulares.

A percepção do conceito de escala geográfica por professores de geografia da educação básica
The geographic scale, along with space, landscape, territory, and other concepts of geography, is necessary to understand socio-spatial dynamics and also to assist in mediating topics and content in school geography. Moreover, it concerns the dimension of analyzing geographical phenomena and processes and is fundamental for their interpretation and/or understanding. Thus, it is one of the most important concepts for teaching geography. With that said, the question arises as to how this concept has been understood by geography teachers in basic education and how it has been appropriated by them in the approach to curricular content. This is an exploratory research, aimed at grounding a broader investigation into geographical concepts and the professional practice of the teacher. Therefore, a digital survey was applied to 15 teachers of basic education, who were invited to participate in the research. The results were systematized and coded using the MAXQDA software. Thus, through Content Analysis (Bardin, 1977), some categories were established for reflection based on the teachers' responses. These categories include: conceptual error, when there are misconceptions; partiality in understanding, when the explanation does not demonstrate complete clarity of the concept; and coherence, when there is correspondence between the conception and its application in teaching. All these categories were identified in the information obtained from the teachers.

Comparação de precipitação entre Monjolos e Pita, São Gonçalo (RJ)
The aim of this study is to compare the precipitation profile of two rainfall stations in the municipality of São Gonçalo - RJ between 2020 and 2023. One station is located near Guanabara Bay (Pita) and the other in the interior of the municipality (Monjolos), 16 km apart. Both have an average profile of higher rainfall totals during the rainy season (from November to April) and lower totals during the dry season (from May to October). However, the two stations are moderately correlated, with many days of rainfall in one location and no rainfall in the other. Checking the frequency of daily events shows that in Pita there are more events in total, mostly in the 0.1-2.5 mm/day class, while in Monjolos there is a predominance of events in the 5-10 mm/day rainfall class. This work aims to contribute to a better understanding of rainfall in São Gonçalo, given the history of disturbances in the municipality associated with the variable.

A formação de professores de geografia e a educação inclusiva: importância da formação continuada para o trabalho com a cartografia tátil
O trabalho ora apresentado versa sobre a formação de professores para o ensino de Geografia em uma perspectiva inclusiva. Para tanto, apresenta-se Cartografia Tátil como metodologia inclusiva para estudantes cegos ou/e com baixa visão. Objetiva-se com esse artigo evidenciar a necessidade da oferta de formação inicial e continuada que contemple capacitações teórico-práticas para professores, cujo trabalho seja voltado para estudantes que possuem deficiência. Todavia, objetiva-se ainda apresentar os resultados parciais de uma pesquisa realizada com professores da rede municipal de Arapiraca/AL. A metodologia utilizada foi a qualitativa e o instrumento escolhido para a coleta de dados foi o questionário. Como resultados, pode-se observar que os professores inquiridos tiveram uma formação inicial carente de arcabouço teórico-prático no que concerne à educação inclusiva, assim como, há uma ausência de formação continuada que contemple uma educação geográfica pautada nos princípios da inclusão, principalmente dos estudantes com cegueira e baixa visão, considerando a ausência, por parte dos professores(as) de conhecimentos teóricos e práticos que os auxilie nesse processo. Frisa-se que o presente trabalho é uma pesquisa em curso, referente ao mestrado em andamento na área de ensino e formação docente.

Ensaio sobre diversidade, inclusão e desigualdade a partir do Estágio Supervisionado em Geografia
O objetivo do artigo é tatear aproximações com a temática da diversidade, da inclusão e da desigualdade a partir das narrativas e debates com licenciandos e licenciandas em Geografia em campo de Estágio Supervisionado. Com o aporte teórico de Arroyo (2008; 2014) reitera as exigências de outras Pedagogias (e Geografias), diante de sujeitos outros que, com sua presença, interrogam a forma-conteúdo da escola e a educação (em Geografia). A abordagem considera a dimensão espacial (Massey, 2012) da escola como elemento central para a produção de sentidos sobre a hospitalidade aos sujeitos praticantes (Certeau, 1994) e suas diversidades. Aciona como metodologia a atenção aos registros de narrativas e escolha de temáticas de pesquisas de estagiárias/os em seus cadernos de campo, apontando, portanto, para reflexões que tensionam a formação docente em geografia mobilizada pela temática da inclusão em vieses diversos. Por fim, destaca as dimensões políticas das concepções de experiência e pesquisa nas recriações do espaço escolar inclusivo.
Inclusão no estágio supervisionado em Geografia.
