For musicians, the impact of noise exposure is not yet fully characterized. Some inconsistencies can be found in the methodology used to evaluate noise exposure. This study aims to analyze the noise exposure of musicians in a symphonic orchestra to understand their risk for hearing loss, applying the methodology proposed by ISO 9612:2009. Noise levels were monitored among musicians during the rehearsal of eight...
The current work can be seen as a starting point for the discussion of the problematic on risk acceptance criteria in occupational environments. Some obstacles to the quantitative acceptance criteria formulation and use were analyzed. A look to the long tradition of major hazards accidents was also performed. This work shows that organizations can have several difficulties in acceptance criteria formulation and...

Plant analysis plays a major role in fertilizer recommendations for perennial tree crops and vines. Plantanalysis, however, does not quantify the rate of nutrients to apply. The approach developed in this worktakes into account the content of the nutrients in grapevine parts and their dynamic within the plantto assist in the estimation of the amount of fertilizer to apply. Groups of three vines were cut at grou...
Com o objetivo de compreender a relação entre os docentes/investigadores e o repositório científico, elaborou-se um estudo baseado num inquérito por questionário para docentes/investigadores de uma instituição de ensino superior. As questões incidiram sobre o Movimento de Acesso Livre ao Conhecimento Científico, o conhecimento do repositório institucional e da Política de Depósito de Documentos no repositório,...
São muitos e de natureza variada os desafios que se colocam, na atualidade, às instituições de ensino superior, em termos de organização, gestão e preservação do conhecimento científico. O contexto do presente estudo respeita ao processo de gestão organização e preservação do conhecimento do ponto de vista dos repositórios científicos. Ao longo dos últimos anos assistiu-se, em todo o mundo, à emergência do Movi...
Apresentam-se os resultados de um estudo sobre o efeito da aprovação e implantação da Política de Depósito de Documentos (PDD) no Repositório Científico do Instituto Politécnico de Castelo Branco - Portugal (RCIPCB). Método: O trabalho foi dividido em duas partes.

Urban agriculture is a global phenomenon. In developing countries urban agriculture has had crucial importance in alleviating problems of extreme poverty and unemployment of the populations of the larger cities. In developed countries has been particularly important during periods of economic depression. Nowadays, the urban agriculture in developed countries is increasing, aimed more at leisure, sports and recr...
