Resumo: The Araguaia Plain has extensive areas of savannah scattered forest fragments similar to circular depressions. These features, in addition to serving as corridors, could be associated with important features such as karsts, closed-water connection structures and ecological-type formations. To identify this relationship and contribute to the understanding of its genesis, this study has as its main objective the morphometric analysis of doliniform functions in the Araguaia Plain. Through the geoenvironmental characterization of the study area; digital facility models – SRTM; interpretation of Sentinel 2-A satellite images from 2019 to 2020; and calculation of morphometric variables: area, perimeters, activity, altitude, length and density, Kernel circularity index. A total of 24,023 doliniform features associated with green/healthy vegetation were identified in a Coverage Area of 114,900 km², Concentrated Majoritariate in the Brazilian municipalities of Lagoa da Confusão -Tocantins; Pium-Tocantins and Cocalinho-Mato Grosso. The features showed circular superiority areas up to 10 km², circular activity indexes at 0.5 and up to 1 and 1.5, indicating a predominance of circular shapes on slopes of 3% in the NE orientation. Based on the results, it can be verified that these features present sinkholes, as they may be under the influence of patterns associated with some processes, denoting in some processes the existence of a covered karst.

Estas formas además de servir como importantes corredores ecológicos, están asociadas a formaciones cársticas del tipo dolinas, estructuras cerradas de conexión entre las aguas superficiales y subterráneas. Para identificar esta relación y contribuir a la comprensión de su génesis, este estudio tiene como objetivo principal el mapeo y análisis morfométrico de rasgos doliniformes en la Llanura de Araguaia. A través de la caracterización geoambiental del área de estudio; modelos digitales de elevación - SRTM, interpretación de imágenes satelitales Sentinel 2-A de 2019 a 2020; y cálculo de variables morfométricas: área, perímetro, pendiente, altitud, coeficiente de elongación, índice de circularidad y densidad Kernel. Se identificaron un total de 24.023 rasgos doliniformes asociados a vegetación verde/sana en un área de 114.900 km², mayoritariamente concentrados en los municipios de Lagoa da Confusão – TO, Pium – TO y Cocalinho – MT. Los rasgos presentaron áreas de hasta 10 km², índices de circularidad superiores a 0,5 y coeficientes de elongación entre 1 y 1,5, indicando un predominio de formas circulares en pendientes de hasta 3% en la orientación NE. Con base en los resultados, se puede inferir que estos rasgos presentan formas de sumideros, los cuales pueden estar bajo la influencia de controles estructurales y asociados a procesos kársticos, denotando en algunos lugares la existencia de un karst cubierto.  A Planície do Araguaia apresenta extensas áreas de savanas com dispersos fragmentos florestais localizados sobre depressões circulares.
