Extreme events, Heat waves, Cold SpellsAbstract
Extreme events such as heat waves (HWs) or cold spells (CSs) can cause damage to human health, to productive activities such as agriculture and livestock, as well as causing various environmental impacts. Therefore, the aim of this study is to identify the variability of the occurrence, duration and intensity mean of atmospheric HWS and CSs in the central part of the Santa Catarina coast from 1982 to 2017. For the detection of HWs and CSs in the atmosphere, the anomalies of the atmospheric temperature data were calculated in relation to the climatological normal, by calculating the 90th and 10th percentiles for HWs and CSs, respectively. The minimum persistence of five days of anomalous temperature values in relation to the daily climatological average was considered. In this work, reanalysis data from the Era-Interim project were used, and the calculations were computed by the ‘‘RmarineHeatWaves’’ package. Based on the calculations and analyzes done, the occurrence of this extreme events in the respective region was checked, with different periods of duration. A greater number of cases of HWs have been observed since the 2000s, corroborating with previous studies. The longest-lasting HW (CS) was seen in April 2016 (July 2000).

Ethical Guidelines for Journal Publication
The Ciência e Natura journal is committed to ensuring ethics in publication and quality of articles.
Conformance to standards of ethical behavior is therefore expected of all parties involved: Authors, Editors, Reviewers, and the Publisher.
In particular,
Authors: Authors should present an objective discussion of the significance of research work as well as sufficient detail and references to permit others to replicate the experiments. Fraudulent or knowingly inaccurate statements constitute unethical behavior and are unacceptable. Review Articles should also be objective, comprehensive, and accurate accounts of the state of the art. The Authors should ensure that their work is entirely original works, and if the work and/or words of others have been used, this has been appropriately acknowledged. Plagiarism in all its forms constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Submitting the same manuscript to more than one journal concurrently constitutes unethical publishing behavior and is unacceptable. Authors should not submit articles describing essentially the same research to more than one journal. The corresponding Author should ensure that there is a full consensus of all Co-authors in approving the final version of the paper and its submission for publication.
Editors: Editors should evaluate manuscripts exclusively on the basis of their academic merit. An Editor must not use unpublished information in the editor's own research without the express written consent of the Author. Editors should take reasonable responsive measures when ethical complaints have been presented concerning a submitted manuscript or published paper.
Reviewers: Any manuscripts received for review must be treated as confidential documents. Privileged information or ideas obtained through peer review must be kept confidential and not used for personal advantage. Reviewers should be conducted objectively, and observations should be formulated clearly with supporting arguments, so that Authors can use them for improving the paper. Any selected Reviewer who feels unqualified to review the research reported in a manuscript or knows that its prompt review will be impossible should notify the Editor and excuse himself from the review process. Reviewers should not consider manuscripts in which they have conflicts of interest resulting from competitive, collaborative, or other relationships or connections with any of the authors, companies, or institutions connected to the papers.
