Geomorphological heritage and identification of potential geomorphosites in the municipality of Ubajara - CE/Brazil

Geomorphosites are defined by relief features in which a value is assigned and have varied dimensions. In order to identify the potential geomorphosites of the municipality of Ubajara - CE, these were identified from a preliminary evaluation, considering the parameters of rarity, representativeness, cultural, aesthetic and ecological relevance, scientific knowledge, as well as the characterization of physical aspects and through field work based on the methodology of Santos et al., (2020). The geomorphosites proposed by this study were two, which are spatially classified as geomorphological complexes and relief shape groups, which when delimited and described evidence the potentialities and Geodiversity of the municipality

Abstract

Geomorphosites are defined by relief features in which a value is assigned and have varied dimensions. In order to identify the potential geomorphosites of the municipality of Ubajara - CE, these were identified from a preliminary evaluation, considering the parameters of rarity, representativeness, cultural, aesthetic and ecological relevance, scientific knowledge, as well as the characterization of physical aspects and through field work based on the methodology of Santos et al., (2020). The geomorphosites proposed by this study were two, which are spatially classified as geomorphological complexes and relief shape groups, which when delimited and described evidence the potentialities and Geodiversity of the municipality
