Abstract
Attention must be in identifying and managing watershed landscapes because of the importance of preserving natural resources. Therefore, this manuscript identifies and maps the coastal area of the Pacoti River Watershed. The methods were the analysis of landscape maps from Ceara research agencies and fieldwork to verify the information. The conclusion is that using technology has become a decisive and effective factor when identifying and analyzing physical characteristics in geomorphologic compartments in the Pacoti River Watershed.
Highlights
The Pacoti River Watershed (Figure 1) is a sub-basin of the Great Metropolitan Basin
Such environments suffer intense modification caused by the coast dynamics, they are steady depending on the continental region
The geoprocessing techniques of digital images were indispensable since they assisted the physical characterization of the natural units in the Pacoti River Watershed, in its coastal zone
Summary
The Pacoti River Watershed (Figure 1) is a sub-basin of the Great Metropolitan Basin. Some compartments that stand out because of their fragility are in the coastal zone, such as estuaries, dune fields, and post-dunes, which are the principal. Such environments suffer intense modification caused by the coast dynamics, they are steady depending on the continental region. Studies with references in the geographical space help to understand the environmental dynamics. It requires the mapping of these environments using, under these conditions, the systemic method as a research reference
