Resumo: Deforestation is a complex problem worldwide caused mostly by the increase in farming activities. Despite the Brazilian Cerrado being the most biodiverse savanna in the world, this biome is threatened by high deforestation rates. The present study aimed to evaluate deforestation in in São Francisco municipality – Minas Gerais state in Brazil's southwestern region, analyzing changes in land cover between 2012 and 2020 focusing on forest, savanna, and grassland physiognomies, and predicting changes in the land cover for the year 2030. It was evaluated metrics of density and size, edge, shape, core area, and proximity. The forest and savanna fragments suffered a reduction in area (0.92% and 12.60%, respectively) and core area, and also increased its proximity. On the other hand, the grassland physiognomy increased its total area (12.72%), nuclear area, and distance from the other fragments. In general, the forest fragment and savanna fragments tended to be elongated and irregular. For 2030, a scenario is predicted with increasing grassland and decreasing forest and savanna. Those changes in the landscape can threaten the region's biodiversity, so public policy attention is needed to the conservation of the fragmented areas.

Apesar do Cerrado Brasileiro ser a savana com maior biodiversidade do mundo, esse bioma tem sido ameaçado devido às altas taxas de desmatamento. O presente trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar o desmatamento em uma região de Cerrado no no município de São Francisco (Minas Gerais), analisando mudanças na cobertura da terra entre 2012 e 2020 para as fisionomias florestais, savânicas e campestres e prevendo mudanças na cobertura da terra para o ano de 2030. Foram avaliadas métricas de densidade e tamanho, borda, forma, área central e proximidade. Os fragmentos de floresta e savana sofreram redução de área (0,92% e 12.60%, respectivamente) e área nuclear, além de aumento de sua proximidade. Por outro lado, a fisionomia campestre aumentou sua área total (12,72%), área nuclear e distância dos demais fragmentos. Em geral, os fragmentos de florestais e savanicos tenderam a ser alongados e irregulares. Para 2030, é previsto um cenário de aumento de pastagens e diminuição de florestas e savanas. Essas mudanças na paisagem podem ameaçar a biodiversidade da região, por isso é necessária atenção das políticas públicas para a conservação das áreas fragmentadas.EDUFU - Editora da Universidade Federal de Uberlândia2024-02-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAvaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/caminhosdegeografia/article/view/6922810.14393/RCG259769228Caminhos de Geografia; Vol. 25 No. 97 (2024): Fevereiro; 293–309Caminhos de Geografia; Vol. 25 Núm. 97 (2024): Fevereiro; 293–309Caminhos de Geografia; v. 25 n. 97 (2024): Fevereiro; 293–3091678-6343reponame:Caminhos de Geografiainstname:Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)instacron:UFUenghttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/caminhosdegeografia/article/view/69228/38121Copyright (c) 2024 Vicente Paulo Santana Neto, Reginaldo Arthur Gloria Marcelino, Emanuelly Canabrava Magalhães, Polyanne Aparecida Coelho, Aretha Franklin Guimarães, Fausto Weimar Acerbi Júnior, Alexandre Simões Lorenzonhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSantana Neto, Vicente PauloMarcelino, Reginaldo Arthur GloriaMagalhães, Emanuelly CanabravaCoelho, Polyanne AparecidaGuimarães, Aretha FranklinAcerbi Júnior, Fausto WeimarLorenzon, Alexandre Simões2024-02-20T12:55:45Zoai:ojs.www.seer.ufu.br:article/69228Revistahttps://seer.ufu.br/index.php/caminhosdegeografia/indexPUBhttp://www.seer.ufu.br/index.php/caminhosdegeografia/oaiflaviasantosgeo@gmail.com1678-63431678-6343opendoar:2024-02-20T12:55:45Caminhos de Geografia - Universidade Federal de Uberlândia (UFU)false
