Resumo: | Environmental Protection Areas (EPA) are Conservation Units (CU) for Sustainable Use that have relevant natural characteristics of the landscape, which must be preserved. However, this management category has generally presented many difficulties and limitations due to its low degree of environmental restriction, suffering several criticisms arising mainly from objectives and its conservation efficiency. These factors can cause greater pressure on natural habitats, and, eventually, generate considerable levels of vulnerability in their territory. In this sense, the objective of the present work was to diagnose the environmental vulnerability of the EPA inserted in the domain of the Atlantic Forest Biome in the southeastern region of Brazil. With the aid of the ArcGIS software, data were used in the Geographic Information System (GIS) of slope, geology, pedology and land use and occupation to determine the Environmental Vulnerability Index. The results showed that the areas studied fall predominantly into the low and medium vulnerability classes. Despite this scenario, it is necessary to implement actions and measures that aim to reduce the degradation of the areas of remaining native vegetation, due to the advance mainly of the existing agricultural and urban activities in the study area. Therefore, it is concluded that the present study is essential for territorial planning, subsidizing information for the management plans for this and other CU categories. |

No entanto, essa categoria de manejo geralmente tem apresentado muitas dificuldades e limitações em virtude do seu baixo grau de restrição ambiental, sofrendo diversas críticas oriundas principalmente dos seus objetivos e da sua eficiência de conservação. Esses fatores podem ocasionar maior pressão sobre os habitats naturais e, eventualmente, gerar níveis consideráveis de vulnerabilidade em seu território. Nesse sentido, o objetivo do presente trabalho foi diagnosticar a vulnerabilidade ambiental das APAs inseridas no domínio do Bioma Mata Atlântica na região sudeste brasileira. Com auxílio do software ArcGIS, foram utilizados dados em Sistema de Informação Geográfica (SIG) de declividade, geologia, pedologia e uso e ocupação da terra para a determinação do Índice de Vulnerabilidade Ambiental. Os resultados mostraram que as áreas estudadas se enquadram predominantemente nas classes de baixa e média vulnerabilidade. Apesar desse cenário, é necessário implantar ações e medidas que visem reduzir a degradação das áreas de vegetação nativa remanescente, em virtude do avanço principalmente das atividades agrícolas e urbanas existentes nas APA. Portanto, conclui-se que o presente estudo é essencial para o planejamento territorial, podendo subsidiar informações para os planos de manejo dessa e outras categorias de UC.Universidade Federal de Santa Maria2022-09-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/xmlhttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/cienciaflorestal/article/view/6726110.5902/1980509867261Ciência Florestal; Vol. 32 No. 3 (2022); 1575-1593Ciência Florestal; v. 32 n. 3 (2022); 1575-15931980-50980103-9954reponame:Ciência Florestal (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)instacron:UFSMporhttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/cienciaflorestal/article/view/67261/48996https://periodicos.ufsm.br/cienciaflorestal/article/view/67261/50963Copyright (c) 2022 Ciência Florestalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCarvalho, Guilherme Oliveira Teixeira deSilva, Nádia Cristina daSalvio, Geraldo Majela Moraes2022-12-29T19:47:53Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/67261Revistahttp://www.ufsm.br/cienciaflorestal/ONGhttps://old.scielo.br/oai/scielo-oai.php||cienciaflorestal@ufsm.br|| cienciaflorestal@gmail.com|| cf@smail.ufsm.br1980-50980103-9954opendoar:2022-12-29T19:47:53Ciência Florestal (Online) - Universidade Federal de Santa Maria (UFSM)false |
