Qualidade da água subsuperficial e de fundo no cultivo de tilápia em tanques-rede na fazenda campo grande (açude Pereira de Miranda, Pentecoste, Ceará)

Abstract

Mankind has an important historical connection with the water especially with Continental Aquatic Ecosystems (CAEs) Worldwide there are about 1386 million km3 of water This value may seem absurdly large almost unimaginable but only a small portion of this amount is freshwater and a smaller portion is still available for consumption by humans This study aimed to determine the effects of tilapia culture in cages held at Fazenda Campo Grande (Weir Pereira de Miranda Pentecost Ceará) the quality of surface and bottom of the cultivation area and systematically monitor the physical-chemical changes nictimerais changes caused by local weather The study was conducted at Aquaculture Campo Grande located in Weir Public Pereira de Miranda located in Petecoste (Ceará - Brazil) Have chosen two stations (PC - Control Point; PTR - Point in Tanks-Net) Were chosen due to location (50 m away) and divide the similar physical characteristics (depth distance from shore etc ) Meteorological data were obtained from FUNCEME and the the Meteorological Station of Universidade Federal do Ceará The campaigns took place every three weeks and began on 24/03/2012 and were finalized on 07/07/2012 Them were collected waters of sub-surface and bottom in two points and at different times (6 12 18 and 24h00min) Even at the site were measured water temperature pH and oxygen fixation occurred by Winckler method In the laboratory were measured electrical conductivity dissolved oxygen total alkalinity total hardness salinity total ammonia nitrogen nitrite iron II and dissolved phosphorus The water clarity was measured with a Secchi disk Each campaign has generated 324 results in water quality total 1944 results at the end of the work In the end it was concluded that the fish farming Campo Grande eutrophication medium so insignificant that the change in water quality is mainly in the bottom water thermal stratification occurred in fish but there was not always a total mixture of the water body waste dispersion was very low keeping the perimeter of the cages and water quality can be organized as follows in order of increasing water quality (from worse to best water): 1 - bottom water of net cages; 2 - bottom water-point control; 3 - sub-surface water of the control points and net cages
