Hydraulics researchers from the Polytechnic School of the University of S\u00e3o Paulo have constructed a physical model that reproduces the 1000 sq. km. of the Santos and S\u00e3o Vicente estuaries and their coastline and have simulated the effects of this alteration. In the Environment Monitoring Assessment, published in September, one of the consequences they highlighted is the probable isolation of the Ponta da Praia region, close to the port of Santos, from the rest of the city because of flooding. In Guaruj\u00e1, S\u00e3o Vicente and Praia Grande, some of the beaches will be submerged affecting densely populated areas. The 1.5 meter rise in sea level on the Sao Paulo coast is not an absurd scenario. In 2005 there were three meter high waves and a rise of 80 centimeters in the sea level in the Bay of Santos during a violent storm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A model reproduces the rise to the level of the sea of Santos and S\u00e3o Vicente","protected":false},"author":475,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[168],"tags":[200],"coauthors":[785],"class_list":["post-224274","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-technoscience","tag-environment"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/224274","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/475"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=224274"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/224274\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=224274"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=224274"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=224274"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/revistapesquisa.fapesp.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=224274"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
