SISTEMAS GEOAMBIENTAIS DO MUNICÍPIO DO CRATO/CE (geo-environmental systems the municipality of Crato/Ce)
Abstract
O município do Crato, em função de sua complexa
paisagem, apresenta uma diversidade de sistemas geoambientais, cuja
caracterização e delimitação poderão contribuir para a ocupação mais
adequada e menos impactante do espaço municipal. Esse trabalho, apoiado
na teoria geossistêmica, buscou identificar, caracterizar e apresentar
as respectivas potencialidades e limitações dos sistemas geoambientais
ás diversas formas de uso e ocupação. Foram identificados quatro
sistemas geoambientais (Chapada do Araripe: Platô e Encostas, Maciços e
Cristas Residuais, Sertões da Depressão Periférica Meridional do Ceará e
Planícies Fluviais) e dez subsistemas geoambientais (Platô Oriental
Revestido por Cerradão/Cerrado, Platô Ocidental Revestido por
Cerrado/Carrasco, Encosta Norte-Ocidental, Encosta Oriental, Maciço
Residual Central, Maciços Residuais Setentrionais, Depressão Sertaneja
Dominada por Material Sedimentar, Depressão Sertaneja Dominada por
Material do Embasamento Cristalino, Planícies Fluviais Úmidas e
Planícies Fluviais Secas).
Palavras-chave: Sistemas geoambientais. Potencialidades. Limitações.
ABSTRACT
The
Municipality of Crato has a diversity of geo-environmental systems due
to its complex landscape, which characterization and delimitation will
contribute to the most appropriate occupation and the fewer prejudicial
to municipal area. This work is sustain in geossistêmica teory, demanded
identify, to characterize and to show the respectives potencialities
and limitations of the nature recourses the ones forms of the use and
occupation. Four geo-environmental systems were identified (Chapada do
Araripe: plateau and hillside, Massif and residual crest, Sertão of
peripheric southern depression and fluvial Plains) and ten
geo-environmental subsystems (Eastern plateau covered by
cerradão/cerrado, Western plateau covered by cerrado/carrasco,
Northern-west hillside, central residual Massif, Northern Residual
Massifs, Sertaneja depression dominated by sedimentary materials,
Sertaneja depression dominated by embasement crystalline material; wet
fluvial plains and dry fluvial plains).
Key Words: Geo-environmental systems. Potentiality. Limitations
RESUMEN
El
municipio del Crato, en función de su complejo paisaje, presenta una
diversidad de sistemas geoambientales, cuya caracterización y
delimitación podrán contribuir para la ocupación más adecuada y menos
impactante del espacio municipal. Ese trabajo, basado en la teoría
geosistémica, intenta identificar, caracterizar e presentar las
respectivas potencialidades y limitaciones de los sistemas
geoambientales (Chapada do Araripe: Altiplano y Macizo, Macizo y Cristas
Residuales, Sertões de la Depresión Periférica Meridional del Ceará y
Llanuras Fluviales) y diez subsistemas geoambientales (Altiplano
Oriental Revestido por Cerradão/Cerrado, Altiplano Occidental Revestido
por Cerrado/Carrasco, Cuesta Norte-Occidental, Cuesta Oriental, Macizo
Residual Central, Macizos Residuales Septentrionales, Depresión cerrada
dominada por material sedimentario, Depresión Cerrada Dominada por
Material del Basamento Cristalino, Llanuras Fluviales Húmedas y
Llanuras Fluviales Secas).
Palabras clave: Sistemas geoambientales, Potencialidades, Limitaciones.
