          Abstract

          ABSTRACT This study aimed to present the effect on surface water quality of the introduction of eucalyptus forestry in areas that were traditionally used for extensive cattle farming in the Pampa biome, by comparing two paired watersheds located in the municipality of Rosário do Sul, one of them used for forestry and the other in an anthropized natural grassland condition in the Pampa biome. For this purpose, every fifteen days the following parameters were collected and analyzed in two watersheds with different land uses (watershed with grassland and extensive livestock farming – GW and watershed with Eucalyptus - EW) between the months of August 2011 and August 2012: pH, EC, temperature, turbidity and concentrations of SO42-, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+, Cl-, BOD5,20, SS, DS, alkalinity, total coliforms and Escherichia coli. Water quality and land use parameters averages were compared using the t-Test to account for the land use and seasonality. It was concluded that the introduction of forestry activity together with the areas of environmental protection required by the Brazilian legislation (Permanent Preservation Areas - PPA plus Legal Reserve - LR), contributed to the increased concentrations of conductivity, dissolved solids, alkalinity and calcium, and the decreased concentrations of total coliforms and Escherichia coli.

          RESUMO Este trabalho objetivou apresentar a influência na qualidade da água superficial resultante da introdução da atividade de silvicultura de eucalipto em áreas com uso tradicional (pecuária extensiva) no bioma Pampa, por meio da comparação de duas em bacias hidrográficas pareadas e localizadas no município de Rosário do Sul, RS, uma sob uso da silvicultura e outra em condição de campo natural antropizado no bioma Pampa. Para tanto, quinzenalmente, realizaram-se coletas de água e a análise dos parâmetros pH, CE, temperatura, turbidez e as concentrações de: SO4-, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+, Cl-, DBO5,20, SS, SD, alcalinidade, coliformes totais e Escherichia coli em duas bacias hidrográficas pareadas com diferentes usos do solo (campo com pecuária extensiva e silvicultura de eucalipto) durante os meses de agosto de 2011 a agosto de 2012. Após, avaliou-se a sazonalidade e a influência do uso do solo, por meio de comparação de médias por meio do Teste t entre os parâmetros de qualidade de água e o uso do solo. Por meio dos resultados, conclui-se que a introdução da atividade de silvicultura em conjunto com as áreas de proteção ambiental exigidas pela legislação (APP + RL) contribuiu para a redução das concentrações coliformes totais e Escherichia coli e para o aumento das concentrações de condutividade elétrica, sólidos dissolvidos, alcalinidade e cálcio para o período monitorado.
