Biomonitoring, Water quality, Soil use and occupationAbstract
Aquatic ecosystems are impacted by various human activities. In view of their preservation, it is necessary to monitor their quality. In this sense, the objective of this work was to evaluate the water quality of the microbasin of the Palmitos by an integrated analysis. The Rapid Assessment Protocol (RAP) results characterized the Palmitos stream ranging from altered to impacted and the tributaries from natural to altered. Biomonitoring characterizes the water quality of the microbasin at different levels, from very bad to good. The high level of eutrophication of water bodies is highlighted due to the high concentrations of phosphorus arising from local agricultural activities, which cover about 60% of the microbasin area according to the study of land use and occupation. The analysis of the sediments showed that places with more heterogeneity present greater diversity of macroinvertebrates. The protocol of functional feeding groups reveals a destructured microbasin in its middle/lower part, due to the predominance of collecting macroinvertebrates and the absence of fragmenters. These results, together, demonstrate the high degradability of the microbasin of the Palmitos stream in the region covered by the urban area. It is expected that the results will contribute to the strengthening of proposals for monitoring and controlling water pollution, serving as a subsidy for programs to recover degraded areas.

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.
