| Resumo: | Semiarid landscapes studies, even with many Scientific’s researches, still have a lack of
approaches, essentially those assigned to environmental and territorial management. Therefore,
one kind of landscape's characterization and representation is through morphological
approaches as part of the morphological compartmentation studies. In other words, a technique
capable of creating homogeneous zoning areas to define criteria for use, fragility, and
environmental potentialities. The principal goal of this research is to identify and characterize
relief compartments at the Espinharas River Watershed (BHRE), at the Paraiba's semiarid, and
look through their environmental fragilities and potentialities. As for the specific objectives, 1
- characterize the landscape elements through thematic maps, 2 - identifying relief
compartments at the BHRE, taking as base the methodology proposed by Cavalcanti (2013),
and Castro; Salomão (2000), 3 - Assay environmental potentialities at the BHRE based on relief
compartments, previously defined, to territorial management purpose. To accomplish the
research was considered geoprocessing techniques and images digital processing, based on
Cavalcanti (2010) and Castro; Salomão (2000) guidelines, also secondary data from IBGE,
CPRM, and fieldwork data. Thereby, it was possible to delimitate seven morphological units.
The first one has recessed areas without explicit use - 1, Sunken areas of bland undulating relief
for predominantly agricultural use - 2, Short Mountain ranges with a predominance of exposed
rock and inselbergs - 3, High Mountain with an undulating relief and with agricultural use - 4,
Summits with predominantly litotic soil - 5, summits with predominantly regolith soil - 6, and
elevated areas with mountainous character - 7. In general, BHRE presents shallow soils and
vegetation with hydric stress, limiting factors for land use purposes, principally, because of a
lack of support at rural extension areas in this region. BHRE has an ascending hypsometry north
to south, with inselbergs and rock blocks, in other words, areas properly indicated to
preservation purposes. Regarding BHRE's vegetation, it is shown a physiognomy composed,
approximately 65%, with a savannah-type. Units 1, 2, 4, and 6 presents wavy plane reliefs and
bland reliefs, predisposed to agropastoral uses, presenting higher intensity of use. units 3, 5,
and 7presents more wavy and mountainous reliefs, making it difficult to use and subject to
protection and preservation areas. |
