Bachelor Thesis Aspectos geoambientais e contribuições estratégicas de planejamento ambiental da Serra de São Bernardo, Rio Grande do Norte, Brasil(Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, 2025-12-09) Medeiros, Vinicius Bezerra de; Cordeiro, Abner Monteiro Nunes; Oliveira, Paulo Jerônimo Lucena de; Dantas, Camylla da SilvaAnalyzing and understanding the dynamics of geographic space transformation are fundamental tools to support environmental management and planning actions at the local level. Based on an integrated approach, this study aims to identify and characterize the environmental systems of the Serra de São Bernardo, located in the semi-arid region of Rio Grande do Norte, through the analysis of its physical components such as geology, geomorphology, pedology, hydrography, climate, and land use and land cover. Geomorphology was used as the main criterion for defining environmental units, and the elements were analyzed based on cartographic materials and detailed descriptions of each theme. The results showed that Serra de São Bernardo stands out as a topographic prominence within the sertaneja surface of the Seridó Potiguar, characterized by predominantly metamorphic lithologies that have preserved this residual relief throughout the regional geomorphological evolution, which resulted in vast surrounding planation surfaces known as sertões. Its natural framework—such as shallow soils and steep slopes—indicates a high susceptibility to environmental degradation processes. In this context, the importance of integrated research focused on understanding environmental systems at the studied scale is highlighted, as well as the need to deepen investigations into the dynamics and vulnerability of these geosystems.
