Resumo: | The performance of agricultural activities is essential for the economic growth of society. However, it must integrate the rational use of natural resources to become sustainable. Thus, it is necessary to know the environmental conditions in the landscape to plan its management. Given the above, the objective was to carry out a detailed survey of the characteristics of the landscape in the sub-basin of the Escondido River, south-western Amazon. For that, the geometric, topographic, and hydrographic characteristics were analyzed, with the software QGIS, Google Earth, and TrackMaker Free, altimetric images from the ALOS satellite, and data from the literature. The Escondido River sub-basin has an area of 1,595.66 km2, a perimeter of 233.98 km, an elongated shape, low susceptibility to flooding, altitudes of 182 to 597 m, predominance of flat to undulating reliefs (93.69%), drainage network of 4,183.09 km, 8th order dendritic pattern, medium spring density, high drainage density, winding main channel, low maintenance coefficient and high concentration time. These characteristics show a high potential for the development of agricultural activities, however, an analysis of the soil cover dynamics is recommended, considering the topographic and hydrographic characteristics of the Escondido river sub-basin, to delimit the priority areas for conservation and recovery of native vegetation. The use of micro-basins as management subunits of the Escondido sub-basin is also recommended, as they have different landscape characteristics that influence management practices and, consequently, the efficiency of natural resource management. |

Por ello, es necesario conocer los recursos naturales disponibles en el paisaje para planificar adecuadamente su manejo. Dado lo anterior, el trabajo tiene como objetivo realizar un relevamiento detallado de las características del paisaje en la subcuenca del río Escondido, sur de la Amazonia Occidental. Para el levantamiento se analizaron las características geométricas, topográficas e hidrográficas con el software QGIS, Google Earth y TrackMaker Free, imágenes altimétricas del satélite ALOS y datos de la literatura. La subcuenca del río Escondido tiene un área de 1.595,66 km2, un perímetro de 233,98 km, forma alargada, baja susceptibilidad a inundaciones, altitudes de 182 a 597 m, predominio de relieves planos a ondulados (93,69%), red de drenaje de 4.183,09 km, patrón dendrítico de octavo orden, media densidad de manantiales, densidad de drenaje alta, canal principal sinuoso, bajo coeficiente de mantenimiento y alto tiempo de concentración. Estas características muestran un alto potencial para el desarrollo de actividades agrícolas, sin embargo, se recomienda un análisis de la dinámica de la cobertura del suelo, considerando las características topográficas e hidrográficas de la subcuenca del río Escondido, para delimitar las áreas prioritarias para la conservación y recuperación de la vegetación nativa. También se recomienda utilizar microcuencas como sub-unidades de manejo de la subcuenca del río Escondido, ya que tienen diferentes características paisajísticas que influyen en las prácticas de manejo y, en consecuencia, en la eficiencia del manejo de los recursos naturales.A realização de atividades agropecuárias é essencial para o crescimento econômico da sociedade, contudo, deve integrar o uso racional dos recursos naturais para se tornar sustentável. Deste modo, é necessário conhecer as condições ambientais na paisagem para planejar adequadamente seu manejo. Diante do exposto, teve-se por objetivo realizar um levantamento detalhado das características da paisagem na sub-bacia do rio Escondido, Amazônia sul-ocidental. Para tanto, foram analisadas as características geométricas, topográficas e hidrográficas, com os softwares QGIS, Google Earth e TrackMaker Free, imagens altimétricas do satélite ALOS e dados da literatura. A sub-bacia do rio Escondido tem área de 1.595,66 km2, perímetro de 233,98 km, forma alongada, baixa suscetibilidade de enchentes, altitudes de 182 a 597 m, predominância de relevos planos a ondulados (93,69%), rede de drenagem de 4.183,09 km, padrão dendrítico de 8ª ordem, média densidade de nascentes, alta densidade de drenagem, canal principal sinuoso, baixo coeficiente de manutenção e alto tempo de concentração. Essas características denotam elevado potencial para o desenvolvimento de atividades agropecuárias, todavia, é recomendada uma análise da dinâmica da cobertura do solo, considerando as características topográficas e hidrográficas da sub-bacia do rio Escondido, para delimitar as áreas prioritárias para conservação e recuperação da vegetação nativa. Também se recomenda o uso das microbacias como subunidades de gestão da sub-bacia do rio Escondido, por apresentarem características de paisagem diferenciadas que influenciam as práticas de manejo e, consequentemente, a eficiência da gestão dos recursos naturais.Research, Society and Development2021-03-14info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/1325310.33448/rsd-v10i3.13253Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 3; e22210313253Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 3; e22210313253Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 3; e222103132532525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/13253/11923Copyright (c) 2021 Jhony Vendruscolo; Nara Rúbia Vieira Boone; Renan Fernandes Moreto; Nilson Reinaldo Fernandes dos Santos Junior; Gilderlon dos Santos Soares; Ariane Cristine Rebelo Lima; Wanderson Cleiton Schmidt Cavalheiro; Marta Silvana Volpato Sccoti; Emanuel Maia; Francisco Adilson dos Santos Harahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessVendruscolo, JhonyBoone, Nara Rúbia VieiraMoreto, Renan FernandesSantos Junior, Nilson Reinaldo Fernandes dosSoares, Gilderlon dos SantosLima, Ariane Cristine RebeloCavalheiro, Wanderson Cleiton SchmidtSccoti, Marta Silvana VolpatoMaia, EmanuelHara, Francisco Adilson dos Santos2021-03-28T12:03:35Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/13253Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:34:38.753138Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
