| Diğer Bilgiler: | This work contemplates a geomorphological characterization as a basis for environmental and territorial planning in a coastal region of Brazil. From the geomorphological point of view, the study area is located on the plateaus and coastal lowlands, where the Barreiras Formation and Quaternary sediments predominate. This area has a great pedological diversity, with different uses and occupations. The generated, analyzed and discussed data were synthesized using the fragility map of natural and anthropogenic environments; the map allows visualizing how the components of the physical environment are integrated and can influence the socio-economic dynamics. This data integration is of fundamental importance in environmental and territorial planning, mainly in developing countries such as Brazil and Costa Rica, where in many regions there are little data or data are scattered. |
