Análise dos efeitos da antropização sobre o Parque Natural Municipal das Dunas da Sabiaguaba

Abstract

The urbanization process in the coastal areas of Fortaleza puts its environmental units defined as fragile and unstable at risk. Faced with an ecological crisis, Conservation Units emerge as tools to control land use and occupation, capable of organizing and recovering areas of ecological relevance. There is currently an important theoretical construction regarding the object of study developed here, such as the management plan and previous zoning, which detail the characterization and occupation of the Sabiaguaba Dunes. Due to the need to update information regarding the PNMDS, this study proposes to present and discuss some of the recent problems that are expressed in the area, as well as to point out suggestions for possible actions in this area of environmental protection. Using environmental sciences, the study is based on the geosystemic view of Landscape Geoecology, and principles of Tricart's Ecodynamics (1977). Methodological procedures: bibliographic survey, field research and interviews with the community and representatives of public bodies.
