Resumo: The process of degradation of semi-arid lands is associated with environmental and economic vulnerabilities related to factors of natural and mainly anthropic origin. Historically, the micro-region of Seridó Ocidental Paraibano had the Caatinga as a means of subsistence and source of income. The abusive removal of vegetation cover is linked to the presence of exploratory economic activities, such as agriculture, livestock, cotton farming and since then mining. Studies initiated in the 1980s by Vasconcelos Sobrinho already pointed to the micro-region as an area of ​​high risk of desertification, later called the Desertification Nucleus due to the natural characteristics and consequences of human activities that devastate large spaces for pasture, removing firewood and charcoal to consumption, as well as for potteries, bakeries and other energy-saving purposes. This work surveys the natural characteristics (rainfall, climate, soil and relief, as well as the removal of firewood and wood for local supply and other locations) that favor environmental degradation and the processes that lead to desertification.

Históricamente, la microrregión de Seridó Ocidental Paraibano tuvo a la Caatinga como medio de subsistencia y fuente de ingresos. La remoción abusiva de la cobertura vegetal está ligada a la presencia de actividades económicas exploratorias, como la agricultura, la ganadería, el cultivo del algodón y desde entonces la minería. Estudios iniciados en la década de 1980 por Vasconcelos Sobrinho ya apuntaban a la microrregión como área de alto riesgo de desertificación, luego denominada Núcleo de Desertificación debido a las características naturales y consecuencias de las actividades humanas que arrasan grandes espacios para pastos, extrayendo leña. y carbón al consumo, así como para alfarerías, panaderías y otros fines de ahorro de energía. Este trabajo releva las características naturales (lluvia, clima, suelo y relieve, así como la extracción de leña y madera para el abastecimiento local y otros lugares) que favorecen la degradación ambiental y los procesos que conducen a la desertificación.O processo de degradação das terras do semiárido está associado às vulnerabilidades ambientais e econômicas relacionadas a fatores de origem natural e principalmente antrópico. Historicamente a microrregião do Seridó Ocidental Paraibano teve a Caatinga como meio de subsistência e fonte de renda. A retirada abusiva da cobertura vegetal está ligada à presença de atividades econômicas exploratórias, como a agricultura, pecuária, cotonicultura e desde então a mineração. Estudos iniciados desde a década de 80 por Vasconcelos Sobrinho já apontava a microrregião como uma área de elevado risco de desertificação, posteriormente chamado de Núcleo de Desertificação devido às características naturais e as consequências de atividades antrópicas que devastam grandes espaços para pastagem retirando lenha e carvão para consumo próprio, assim como para olarias, panificadoras e outras finalidades econômicas energéticas. Esse trabalho faz o levantamento das características naturais (precipitação, clima, solo e relevo bem como da retirada da lenha e madeira para abastecimento local e de outras localidades) que favorecem a degradação ambiental e os processos que levam à desertificação.Research, Society and Development2022-02-09info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2608210.33448/rsd-v11i3.26082Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 No. 3; e1411326082Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 Núm. 3; e1411326082Research, Society and Development; v. 11 n. 3; e14113260822525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/26082/22941Copyright (c) 2022 Poliana Maria da Silva Valdevino Esteves; Fabiano Santiago Cruzhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessEsteves, Poliana Maria da Silva Valdevino Cruz, Fabiano Santiago2022-03-09T13:44:38Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/26082Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:44:12.777451Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
