Mapeamento geoecológico da costa atlântica amazônica aplicado ao município de Quatipuru – Pará, Brasil

Abstract

This paper shows the mapping process of the geoecological images of Pará coast, through geoprocessing, generating data characteristics of the ecosystem with its landscapes, geological formation morphology of the terrain and plant communities associated with it. All the elements that define the physiographic current pattern of landscape units and their relationship with their surroundings, supported the palynological interpretations, diatomalogic in terms paleoenvironmental, paleoclimatic and paleoecological in the city of Quatipuru - PA, using computational tools and techniques available in the LAPPAM/MPEG and LABGEO/IEC. After the identification of landscape patterns units it was possible of the make the interpretation of the informants of the actual and ancient event in the area, being an instrument of comparison between current landscape and past landscapes, with the Geoprocessing was possible the elements characterize of interest for analysis and understanding of the formation processes of the coastal landscape and its interactions with natural and anthropogenic processes intrinsic to its structure and operation. The goal of this paper is to show mapping process the landscape units in the coastal plain of the city of Quatipuru using geo and bio-indicators, enhancing the knowledge on coastal ecosystems, providing background for the understanding of the formation processes and functioning of these ecosystems.Pages: 3772-377
