▼ Home movies are now viewed in a variety of public contexts, a shift that entails a loss of their original meanings. In order to consider the impact of exhibiting these private documents, this thesis analyses the use of home movies within recycled footage productions, archival curation and online video-sharing. Investigating a variety of formal and informal screening contexts through close readings and archival research, it asks: what meanings do home movies acquire in new contexts? How might the reuse of home movies affect our understandings of their production and the past they portray? Does a perception that home movies could appear boring influence how they are framed or altered for public audiences? Due to their form and content, home movies may seem ill-suited to public exhibition. Popular discourses about home movies during their heyday of production reveal a widespread belief that they were boring (for outsiders) to watch. While recent literature has assessed home movies more favourably, it has tended to overlook their potential to bore viewers who have no personal relationship to them. Drawing upon theories of boredom, this study argues meaningfulness is the principal factor determining whether a viewer finds a particular film interesting or boring. In their original form, home movies may appear relatively meaningless and therefore boring to public audiences. Recycled footage films re-edit images, however, to create engaging viewing experiences through narrative and affect. While more experimental productions frequently question the evidential value of home movie images, television documentaries tend to encourage audiences to perceive footage as authentic or nostalgic. Narrative and affect also feature in the exhibition strategies of moving image archives. Curated public programmes provide informative and enjoyable viewing for general audiences, but almost inevitably promote certain understandings of the past by offering specific interpretations of selected films. Moreover, the affective appeal of home movie images may outweigh other forms of meaning for viewers, particularly in community or participatory screening contexts. Online video-sharing platforms such as YouTube, which are curated by algorithms rather than human expertise, feature numerous home movies without any kind of framing or description. While this might seem profoundly boring, viewer comments suggest meaninglessness can foster imaginative and empathetic responses to home movies, often expressed as nostalgic longing. This propensity of home movie footage within different screening contexts to encourage nostalgic sentiments, or a belief that life was better in the past, has implications for collective memory and understandings of history. Moreover, the ability of at least some viewers to enjoy home movies in relatively contextless spaces suggests that in certain instances qualities associated with boredom may not be a significant impediment to meaningful experience after all.

▼ Stormwater detention basins are typically used for stormwater control in many communities across the United States. They are commonly constructed downstream of every new development to control post-development runoff, and are called "on-site" detention basins. It has been shown by multiple authors in the literature that the design of on-site detention basins with no consideration of their location (non-spatially dependent policies, or Non-SD) in the watershed can actually increase peak flows above post-development peaks that would occur in the absence of on-site detention basins. This is caused by on-site detention basins delaying the peak release of a particular subwatershed and combining with other peak flows in the watershed (McCuen 1974; McCuen 1979; Emerson et al. 2005). Strategies to combat this problem have been reported, but metrics used to judge their success are limited to the main channel of the watershed or the watershed outlet only, leaving its impact in the remaining other watershed locations unknown. In addition, some strategies have recommended increasing the storage of on-site detention basins, but this approach would increase construction and maintenance costs and reduce the amount of land available to developers. Validation of increased peak flows throughout the watershed when Non-SD policies are used to design on-site detention basins compared to no on-site detention in the watershed was investigated first. The Non-SD policies used in this study controlled the post-development 10 and 100-year peak flows to flows at or below their respective pre-development peak flows (Non-SD 1), and controlled the post-development 100-year peak flow to flows at or below the 2-year pre-development peak flow (Non-SD 2). Next, spatially dependent policies (SD policies) were created by altering the peak flow release from on-site detention basins that would have occurred under a Non-SD policy based on its location in the watershed. These peak flows were altered using a linear model and a piece-wise linear model. Results from SD policies were compared to those from Non-SD policies. Metrics used to evaluate the effectiveness of the on-site detention basin policies (both SD and Non-SD) were peak flows throughout the watershed and total watershed storage. All policies were tested on a watershed in Fort Collins, Colorado using the Urban Morpho-climatic Instantaneous Unit Hydrograph model. Results indicate that Non-SD polices effectively reduce peak flows throughout the watershed, and do not increase peak flows compared to a policy that uses no on-site detention. When compared against Non-SD 1, SD policies derived from the linear equation were successful at reducing peak flows at some 2nd and 3rd order channel and pipe intersections in the upper half of the watershed, while increasing peak flows at 2nd order channel and pipe intersections in the lower half of the watershed. The remaining intersections were not effected by this SD policy, and the total watershed storage was shown to increase. SD policies… Advisors/Committee Members: Roesner, Larry (advisor), Niemann, Jeffery (committee member), Gironás, Jorge (committee member), Stednick, John (committee member).

▼ Home dialysis and home detention are home-based public services increasingly used in Samoan households living in Aotearoa/New Zealand. They are cheaper than institutionally-provided hospital and correctional services and save the government millions of dollars; savings which do not seem to be transferred to the households which switch to home-based services. This thesis considers the role of housing in Samoan families living in Aotearoa/New Zealand, both symbolically and practically. It analyses in depth the way these two different public services are adapted within the home built environment and the effect these have on the lives of Samoan occupants. The quality of housing and built environments are a vital and significant component of home-based services, yet, largely ignored in the literature and state policies as having an effect on the health of occupants. In this qualitative research I used a multiple-case study approach to investigate the housing experiences of five Samoan dialysis patients (n=4) and their carers (n=8); and two Samoan home detainees (n=2) and a sponsor (n=1). Using an iterative approach of the Photovoice method, disposable cameras were used by the participants to produce photographs about their experiences. In consultation with Samoan elders, I also developed an epistemological model of Samoan health and well-being based on the traditional house and descriptions of tides and winds. The participants’ photographs and in-depth interviews in the Samoan and English languages were matched to the three stratified areas of the Samoan traditional dwelling: front of house, middle of house and back of house. Key informant interviews with public service officials were also analysed to provide important information about the Wellington Hospital Renal Unit (n=2) and the New Zealand Prison Services of the Corrections Department (n=5). Home-based services, when compared to hospital and prison institutional services, gave the participants many advantages. These included the convenience of being at home, reduced transport and travelling costs, spending more time with family and friends and in some cases participation in vocational and rehabilitation programmes. Samoan culture provided a useful framework for families to respond to the sensitive issues and obligations associated with palliative renal care, death, spirituality, gender arrangements, transplantation, cultural identity and restorative justice. Other unexpected and less favourable outcomes associated with home-dialysis were fuel poverty, lack of indoor storage, minimal spatial heating and issues of waste disposal. Samoan participants expected far more support at home from public authorities than they in fact received and many of them experienced stigmatisation and social isolation. These everyday experiences forced some dialysis patients to give up home-based services and return to hospital services, which are more expensive. For some home detainees, spousal violence and problems with other family members increased… Advisors/Committee Members: Howden-Chapman, Philippa L (advisor).

▼ Contemporary Home Detention Based Sanctions (HDBS), which utilise electronic monitoring (EM) technology, became first available in the 1980s in the United States of America (USA). While the development and expansion of contemporary HDBS throughout the world has taken place over the last three decades (1982-2013) with varied success, relatively little is known about their comparative rationale, implementation and operation. The employment of comparative historical scholarship in this study of HDBS has allowed the researcher to identify and examine the similarities and differences in the development, operation and outcomes of HDBS over time (last three decades, that is, from 1982 to 2013) and place (the USA and Australia). More broadly, the evolution of the HDBS frameworks in this research has been divided into three ideologically distinguishable phases. The early phase of HDBS in the USA and Australia occurred from 1840s until the 1960s. Following this, the middle phase of HDBS occurred in the USA and Australia from the 1960s to 1970s. It comprised five converging factors. This culminated in a â€˜correctional disillusionâ€™ that led to governmentsâ€™ decisions to introduce the late phase of HDBS, which has been operational over the last three decades (1982-2013). The late phase of HDBS in the USA commenced with the implementation of intermediate sanctions, comprising of HDBS with Radio Frequency (RF) in the 1980s. In the mid-2000s, however, the expansion of sex offender post-release supervision laws and the development of electronically monitored Global Positioning Systems (GPS) technology led to utilisation HDBS for serious sex offenders. The last three decades of evaluative research about HDBS with RF have generally indicated problematic operational outcomes as well as significant ethical and political and stakeholder issues and dilemmas. On the other hand, HDBS with GPS have been operationally successful, although studies assessing some of their ethical and overall political and stakeholder issues and dilemmas have been lacking. The late phase of HDBS with RF in Australia also started in the 1980s. HDBS with GPS entered the correctional arena after 2000 in very similar circumstances to the USA. The last three decades of evaluative research of HDBS with RF have generally found that these sanctions have achieved their anticipated operational results, but have encompassed significant ethical and particularly political and stakeholder issues and dilemmas. Research assessing the operational outcomes, ethical and political and stakeholder issues and dilemmas of HDBS with GPS is still inadequate, and it is imperative that such research is conducted in the future. The predicted future trajectory of HDBS in both the USA and Australia is increased sanction application. The future viability and outcomes of HDBS in both nation states are however dependent on whether policy makers and/or correctional administrators, with the support of governments, improve the operation of HDBS by implementing the lessons learnt based on…

▼ The thesis is a qualitative study informed by Standpoint Theory (Smith, 1997) examining the perspectives of six Home Detention Probation Officers (HDPO's). In particular, the research explores the participants' perspective of two of the three major objectives of the Home Detention Order outlined in the Community Probation Service Operations Manual (CPSOM) Volume four. These are to: a) ensure that the criminogenic needs are met by the constructive use of programmes; and b) to ease the transition of inmates back into the community through a staged process of release by providing support and control structures. The research questions were focused on the 'fit' between the two objectives, the part the objectives and electronic monitoring play in guiding practice, and the combined impact of these on the everyday practice of HDPO's. The primary questions explored whether these objectives are working or achievable, what supports them and what barriers exist to their effective operations. The findings of this research show that, while the stated objectives are achievable, the fit between the manual and everyday practice for the participants could be challenging due to high caseloads, management regime requirements and areas within the manual and policy that were considered sparse, effectively leaving HDPO's without clear guidelines or procedures. Programmes were considered vital to home detention but issues around rescheduling, entry criteria to programmes and availability of programmes caused concern. Participants identified training areas such as working with families, combined with practice-based training would assist their practice delivery. They suggested that regular conference based trainings and meetings would inform policy and clarify practice issues, for instance in relation to after hours incidents. Electronic monitoring was considered to be a major component of home detention, however equipment reliability and communication problems with the monitoring company created difficulties with effective management of home detention.

▼ Since 1984 in the U.S., electronic monitoring has been gradually incorporated into corrections as a means of verifying offenders' curfew compliance in programs of house arrest or home confinement. Programs of electronically monitored house arrest combine practices of community supervision found in probation, with practices of surveillance and policing found in prisons. Their combination produces a hybrid carceral form. The species of 'intermediate punishment' that is created expands the possibilities of criminal sentencing and classification. These programs have been heralded as humane and cost efficient in managing mainly 'low risk' offenders, and as a potentially effective method of dealing with prison crowding. The recent inauguration of electronic monitoring in a program of house arrest in the province of British Columbia is the first deployment of this new type of penal form in Canada. The present research investigation focuses on this program run by the B.C. Corrections Branch. Prior to a consideration of this program as the site for the present research, a necessary task in the first part of this dissertation is to review the recent literature describing programs of electronically monitored house arrest. This review describes recent electronic monitoring programs in U.S. criminal justice and correctional spheres where virtually all developments have occurred to date. After this literature review, the British Columbia research site is described and a summary of the findings of an exploratory research investigation describing the effects of this sanction on offenders is given. Despite methodological limitations of the research sample some important insights are provided about how this sanction works to control, punish, and discipline offenders. The main research question considered in this empirical investigation - how does this sanction affect offenders and their consociates? - is addressed through subjective reports provided by open-ended interviewing of a cohort of 60 offenders placed on electronically monitored house arrest in the B.C. EMS Pilot Project program. The second part of the dissertation establishes a social analytic basis, drawing on the work of Michel Foucault, for critically evaluating the local use of this new correctional option. Part II of the dissertation evaluates the disciplinary and organizational or systemic effects of the deployment of this sanction within the correctional enterprise. A framework for assessing the possibility of achieving the four penal aims of punishment, incapacitation, deterrence, and rehabilitation is employed in a re-assessment of the sanction's normalizing effects and disciplinary potential. The picture provided of the achievement of these penal objectives is mixed and indicates that more research is required. Finally, and of more overarching significance, various data sources relating to the local development and implementation of this program in B.C. are examined in order to evaluate the applicability of the hypothesis that penal reforms expand the apparatus…

▼ This dissertation examines how boredom can be understood in the context of Henri Lefebvre’s (1901-1991) critique of everyday life. Through an integration of the boredom literature, both the fully developed studies as well as fragmentary passages, I argue that Lefebvre’s critique of everyday life adds an important dimension to understanding boredom in modernity. One of the leading strands in boredom studies today argues that boredom is an historically specific experience unique to the rhythms of life imparted with the onset of modernity. Viewed in this light, boredom is a relatively recent phenomenon that can be linked to what Lefebvre calls the ‘double process’ of industrialization and urbanization. Although the mass profusion of boredom has left a seemingly indelible mark on society, it has received relatively little attention in both everyday life and academia. First coined in the middle of the 19th century, boredom is a relatively new word for what today is an all too pervasive experience. Writing throughout most of the 20th century, Lefebvre makes numerous references to boredom, yet, despite claiming that a study of boredom would be a significant contribution to his critique of everyday life, he never developed an in-depth and sustained analysis of this experience. Lefebvre did, however, identify an internal dialectic of mass culture as being an integral component for understanding boredom. It is argued that Lefebvre’s theory of a dialectical process inherent to mass culture is a key for understanding boredom as an historically specific phenomenon. In organizing this dissertation, a constellation of themes are presented in order to articulate this dialectic. After exploring boredom’s relationship to modernity, I then discuss what Lefebvre considers as the verso of modernity, everyday life. Following this, I consider the contradictions of space that give rise to boredom in urban centres and suburban peripheries by critically analyzing both the production of those spaces as well as how they are consumed in everyday life. Finally, I consider the escape from boredom offered in select sounds and images of the culture industry and its opposite, the embrace of boredom in certain 20th century avant-garde art movements. Through a reading of Lefebvre’s critique of everyday life and complementary texts, this interdisciplinary dissertation is a contribution to understanding the mass phenomenon of boredom in modernity.

La présente étude a pour objet l’analyse de l’appréhension des conditions de détention en établissements pénitentiaires par le mécanisme européen à travers la Convention européenne des droits de l’homme. Plus précisément, il s’agit d’étudier de quelle manière la Convention internationale contribue à protéger les droits fondamentaux des personnes privées de liberté et si son action est réellement efficiente. Cette recherche doit s’ordonner autour de deux axes principaux. En effet, il conviendra tout d’abord de démontrer la réelle efficacité du mécanisme européen de prévention des conditions de détention en s’interrogeant sur le degré d’effectivité de l’engagement des Etats membres du Conseil de l’Europe. Il est dans ce sens important d’observer avec attention la qualité de la promotion des droits fondamentaux des détenus sur la scène internationale. De même, il sera nécessaire d’étudier les différentes stratégies européennes afin d’assurer une prévention opérante des conditions de détention. A cet égard, l’on constatera la parfaite prévention relative aux conditions de vie des détenus qu’a constitué le Conseil de l’Europe. Par ailleurs, il sera également nécessaire de constater la relative efficacité du mécanisme européen de sanction des conditions de détention en constatant les carences qui subsistent et les sanctions qui restent aujourd’hui insuffisantes. A cet égard, il est essentiel de s’interroger sur l’influence de la Convention européenne des droits de l’homme sur les ordres juridiques internes relatifs aux conditions de détention à travers la jurisprudence de Strasbourg. En effet, c’est précisément ce raisonnement qui va démontrer le degré d’efficacité du mécanisme juridictionnel strasbourgeois. Il est dans ce sens primordial d’étudier minutieusement la réalité des conditions de vie des personnes privées de liberté afin de comprendre les raisons de l’insuffisance du mécanisme de sanction des conditions de détention.

The present study has an aim the analysis of the apprehension of the detention conditions in penal institutions by the European mechanism throught the European Convention of the human rights. More precisely, it is a question of studying International convention how contributes to protect the basic rights from the individuals of freedom and if its action is really efficient. This research must be ordered around two main axes. Indeed, it will first of all be advisable to show the real effectiveness of the European mechanism of prevention of the detention conditions while wondering about the degree of effectiveness of the commitment of the Member States of the Council of Europe. It is in this direction important to observe with attention the quality of the promotion of the basic rights of the prisoners on the international scene. In the same way, it will be necessary to study the various European strategies in order to ensure an operative prevention of the detention conditions. In this respect, one will note the perfect prevention relating to the living conditions of the prisoners whom the Council…

▼ The impact of academic boredom on learning and achievement has received increasing attention in the literature because academic boredom is associated with lower academic outcomes. In this dissertation, academic boredom was examined in three separate articles. The first article presents a meta-analysis that explores the relationship between students’ academic boredom and their motivation, study strategies and behaviours, and performance. The overall results showed a significant (negative) relationship between the key variables, moderated by age. Boredom experienced in class had greater negative impact on students’ academic functioning than boredom experienced during studying. In addition, a significant differential impact of boredom on academic motivation, study strategies and behaviours, and achievement was found. The second article examines changes in academic boredom over time in a sample of 144 university students. The article a) examines the patterns of change in two types of academic boredom (learning-related and class-related) and in four types of student engagement (vigor, absorption, dedication, and effort regulation); b) examines how the trajectories of boredom and student engagement relate to one another; and c) evaluates the influence of perceived autonomy support on the pattern of change in boredom. Results of latent growth curve analysis showed that learning-related boredom, vigor, and absorption remained relatively stable over time, whereas both class-related boredom and effort regulation showed a linear change, a pattern of increase and a trend of decrease, respectively. Interestingly, students’ dedication decreased at the beginning and increased when approaching the end of the course. Results also revealed the negative impact of perceived autonomy support on class-related boredom experience, and the fact that changes in boredom in class were linked with changes in both effort regulation and dedication. The third article presents a boredom scale validation. The article investigates the validity of the English Precursors to Boredom Scales (E-PBS) in a sample of Canadian college students and examines the criterion-related evidence between the E-PBS and students’ self-efficacy for self-regulated learning (SESRL) and achievement. Findings showed that the factor structure and item loadings of the E-PBS were comparable with those found in samples from Germany, where the scale was initially validated. Results also indicated significant negative associations between SESRL and four antecedents to boredom (i.e., boredom due to being over-challenged, lack of meaning, opportunity costs, and general boredom tendency). However, only one significant negative correlation involving students’ achievement emerged; that is, the correlation between achievement and being under-challenged was significant and negative. Taken together, the three articles in the dissertation show the importance of understanding academic boredom in learning contexts. The key findings of this three-article dissertation and implications for future…

▼ This thesis addresses the conceptualisation of boredom in Plutarch through a survey of relevant lexical terms, and analysis of the depiction of character in the 'Moralia' and the 'Lives..'. A distinction is made between the temporary tedium of simple boredom, and the persistent and spiritual dissatisfaction of complex boredom. The first chapter is composed of a discussion of the context necessary to understand boredom in an ancient context. It discusses relevant psychological theories for understanding emotion, as well as simple and complex forms of boredom. It also establishes the context for discussing ancient emotions. Depictions of simple and complex boredom in the ancient world prior to the work of Plutarch are summarised and addressed. Similar themes in the works of Seneca, Horace, and Lucretius are also discussed. The second chapter charts the lexical course of words identified by modern scholarship as relating to concepts of boredom. Their occurrence and significance within Plutarch’s oeuvre are discussed. These terms include ἄλυς (boredom), ἀλύω (wandering, to be distraught), ἀκηδία (lassitude), ἄση (surfeit, distress), ἀπληστία (insatiate greed), κόρος (satiety) and πλησμονή (abundance, surfeit). This analysis attempts to identify the underlying semantic field of these terms, and to assess how much these correspond with modern conceptions of boredom. The discussion focusses on the themes of luxury and leisure, revelry, warfare, philosophy, exile, retirement, and dissatisfaction. The third chapter attempts to contextualise the lexical research through the use of case studies in Plutarch’s works. The paired 'Lives of Pyrrhus' and 'Marius' are analysed in terms of the dissatisfaction and insatiable ambitions of their protagonists. The paired 'Lives of Antonius' and 'Demetrius' are discussed in relation to the themes of dissatisfaction, luxurious excess, and the reversal of fortune. The theme of philosophical satisfaction, and the escape from dissatisfaction, are discussed in the context of the 'On Exile' and 'On Tranquility'.

▼ Boredom is a common human experience, yet little is known about its underlying neural mechanisms. This thesis first set out to investigate the construct of boredom and more closely examined its relationship to phenomenologically similar mood states of depression, apathy and anhedonia. Next, deficits in sustained attention, and novelty seeking were examined in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI), who are characterized by atypically high levels of boredom. Study 1 established that although related to varying degrees to apathy, anhedonia, and depression, boredom is indeed a distinct emotional experience. Furthermore, two boredom proneness subtypes - agitated and apathetic - were identified which varied in their relationships to depression. The relationship between boredom and depression was found to be high only in the agitated boredom prone subtype, which is characterised by a high degree of motivation to engage in meaningful, stimulating activities despite the fact that all attempts to do so fail to satisfy. In Study 2, the relationship between boredom proneness and depression was found to be greater in TBI patients than in healthy controls. Using a behavioral measure of sustained attention (SART; Robertson et al., 1997), Study 3 demonstrated a relationship between boredom proneness and sustained attention in healthy controls, such that RTs were faster and commission errors more prevalent in the agitated boredom prone subtype. No relationship between boredom proneness and sustained attention was found in TBI patients. So while attention and boredom show a clear relationship in the healthy brain, this relationship may be disrupted in TBI patients. Finally, Study 4 demonstrated an association between agitated boredom proneness and a preference for novel stimuli across participant groups. In addition, patients had a poorer ability to discriminate between similar and dissimilar stimuli than controls, which was more evident in the agitated boredom prone group. It may be the case then that agitated boredom prone individuals fail to satisfy their desire to engage in stimulating activities in part because they fail to accurately identify when something is indeed novel. Taken together, these results highlight important distinctions between apathetic and agitated boredom proneness, and the way in which these subtypes relate to depression, attention, and novelty seeking, in brain injured patients and healthy controls. More work is needed to determine the role played by boredom in TBI, particularly as this evolves from acute to chronic stages of the illness. Importantly, identifying boredom as a key element in depressive mood disorders, attention deficits (e.g., attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), and novelty seeking behaviour, facilitates the design and implementation of appropriate intervention strategies. For example, it will become increasingly important to deal with boredom as a significant component of depression. Thus, the work presented here represents a novel and important contribution to the study of…

The home detention reservoirs for temporary storage of rain water have been proposed as a new control measure discharges in urban runoff. This work studied the effect of implementing these reservoirs damping in a neighborhood of the city of Uberlândia (MG), located in the Córrego da Lagoinha basin with the scenario of urbanization through hydrological simulation program developed in Visual Basic for Applications (VBA). Were designed and used home three reservoirs: the first and largest, has been designed with full insertion of the precipitation to rain initial return period of 10 years and tested for rain maximum design of 100 and 200 years, having a damping volume to 5.015 m3, while the other two were rated partial insertion of precipitation, by using a box server, to a rain initial return period of 05 years and tested for maximum rains design of 100 and 20 years, respectively where their damping volumes were 3.25 and 1.50 m3. The results for the three reservoirs hydrologic simulation showed that the attenuation of the peak flows to their maximum rains, the efficiencies were 32.23%, 24.27% and 15.47% for the reservoirs 5.015 m3, 3.25 m3 e 1.50 m3, respectively, and delayed the peak time of 50.81%, 34.0% and 19.61%.

Os reservatórios de detenção domiciliares de armazenamento temporário da água de chuva têm sido propostos como uma nova medida de controle de vazões do escoamento superficial urbano. Este trabalho estudou o efeito da implantação destes reservatórios de amortecimento em um bairro da cidade de Uberlândia (MG), situado na bacia do Córrego da Lagoinha com o cenário de urbanização, por meio de simulação hidrológica elaborada em programação Visual Basic for Applications (VBA). Foram dimensionados e utilizados três reservatórios domiciliares: o primeiro e maior, foi dimensionado com inserção total da precipitação para uma chuva inicial de período de retorno de 10 anos e testado para as chuvas máximas de projeto de 100 e 200 anos, tendo um volume de amortecimento de 5,015 m3, enquanto os outros dois foram dimensionados com inserção parcial da precipitação, por meio da utilização de uma caixa servidora, para uma chuva inicial de período de retorno de 05 anos e testados para chuvas máximas de projeto de 100 e 20 anos, respectivamente, onde seus volumes de amortecimento foram de 3,25 m3 e 1,50 m3. Os resultados obtidos para a simulação hidrológica dos três reservatórios mostraram que, a atenuação dos picos de vazão para as suas chuvas máximas, as eficiências foram de 32,23%, 24,27% e 15,47% para os reservatórios de 5,015 m3, 3,25 m3 e 1,50 m3, respectivamente, e retardo no tempo de pico de 50,81%, 34,0% e 19,61%.
