Anthropologists widely agree that identities even ethnic and racial ones are socially constructed. The expropriation of farms, resulting from land conflicts, is currently at the heart of land reform policies in Brazil. (2004) 'Os Complexos Caminhos da Luta pela Terra Entre os Kaiowá e Guarani do MS' ['The Complex Journeys of the Struggle for Land of the Guarani-Kaiowá of Mato Grosso do Sul'], Tellus 4(5): 137–50.

For this reason, this study aims to analyze and identify the land use and land cover changes over the last 30 years (from 1986 until 2016), through Landsat 5 and 8 satellite images, and how these land cover changes involve different temperature conditions in the city of Rio de Janeiro, especially in connection with the formation of urban heat islands. Urban density also favors this diversity by expanding the development of several microclimates in the city. This way, when researching urban climate, it is necessary to understand the specific thermal, hygrometric and rainy aspects of a certain place, so that there is an understanding of the real changes influenced by the urbanization process and different land uses and covers, which are essential for creating new ways of mitigating the consequent damages by the heat island phenomenon. Voices Comment Brazil’s big landowners have far too much power. In Brazil, the large majority of family farms are in the northeastern, southern and southeast Brazil.

This favors the greater heating in the areas to the north of the massifs (to leeward); on the other hand, the areas to the south of the slopes (to windward) receive a greater amenity in the air temperature, because of the shading during part of the day [, Therefore, when taking into account the relief of the city, it is important to take into account the altitude, as well as the position of the slopes [, Another climatic element that will be highly influenced by the proximity to the ocean is the relative humidity, because the coast on which Rio de Janeiro is located is that of the Atlantic Ocean, and it is a region bathed by warm sea currents, which favors the humid climate. Also used extensively are Brand' s studies (1993 and 1997), which are fundamental to the comprehension of the land losing process faced by several Guarani communities.

Consequently, the effects of urbanization influence the climate behavior in the neighborhoods of the city; the higher the urban density is in a determined area, the higher the probability is for the development of heat islands in these areas. According to human rights watchdog Comissão Pastoral da Terra (CPT), 61 people died due to land and resource conflicts in the Amazon in 2016. Thermal remote sensing of urban climates. In, Monteiro, C.A.F. those of the individual authors and contributors and not of the publisher and the editor(s). In this way, this neighborhood is considered to be one of the urban heat islands in the city of Rio de Janeiro. The city of Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) is located in a tropical zone of the planet, in medium latitude that experiences strong insolation throughout the year.

It argues that a state program (the System of Incentives for Environmental Services – SISA) shifts forest carbon’s value from land to certain forms of labor.

Although the 2010 census shows an increase to 2.4 percent of the population registered as indigenous (a remarkable 60 percent rise; cited in Wald 2013, 603-04), this blind spot in the literature continues to further invisibilize a population whose role in agrarian change historically has been central and whose mobilizations today shape the agenda of resistance politics. . Available online: United States Geological Service. Conflicts between indigenous peoples and other land users are by no means unique to Brazil - similar disputes are common in Australia, Mexico, North America and other western countries. Noting that organization and connections have been ‘missing links’ in the literature, the authors draw on thinking on collective action and social networking.
