1. PORTARIA 328/98 CNPq
***********************
O Fórum das Associações e Sociedades Científicas divulgou a nota abaixo em apoio ao Prof. Gatass, sobre a portaria 328/98 CNPq.

"Senhores Conselheiros
O Fórum das Associações e Sociedades Científicas apoia a posição do membro do CD/CNPq,  Prof. Ricardo Gatass, vice-presidente da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, quando discordou da  implementação, sem consulta a comunidade
científica, das medidas decorrentes das portaria  328/98, promulgada pelo Presidente do CNPq, que paralisaram parcialmente as atividades da agência. Ademais, compartilha da preocupação do referido conselheiro quanto a
questão do fomento não induzido passar a ser de responsabilidade exclusiva das FAP's.

3. INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ENVIRONMENTAL PHYSICS
*****************************************************
Sr. Secretario
Por favor divulgar no boletim eletrônico da SBQ
=========================================
International Center for Condensed Matter Physics
Universidade de Brasilia
International Conference on Environmental Physics
March 22-26 1999, University of Brasilia, Brasilia, Brazil.

Thematic
Brazil faces very important environmental problems in urban areas as well as in the regions having fast development, such as the Amazon basin. In recent years many large interdisciplinary research projects were developed, and the area is growing very fast.
Air, water and soil pollution problems are serious in all regions of Brazil, affecting millions of people and with important economic consequences. Biomass burning in Amazonia and in the cerrado region is an strategic problem still to be addressed.
Urban air pollution in Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro and other major urban areas have important effects on population health and many of the scientific issues are still open in this particular area. Development of instrumentation for measurements and characterization of environmental problems is also an important area, with new instruments being developed and applied in important environmental problems. This conference will address many different issues and areas in this fast growing and
fascinating research field.
