ANALYSIS ON THE SUSCEPTIBILITY TO EROSION AND LAND USE CONFLICTS BY GEOTECHNOLOGIES IN THE MICROREGION JAURU MATO GROSSO STATE, BRAZIL
Resumen
The objective of this study was to evaluate the susceptibility of erosion and land use conflicts in the micro-region Jauru, Mato Grosso State, using geo-technologies. From the area under study, maps on Geomorphology-Pedology, as well as a map on Susceptibility to Soil Erosion were generated. The Soil Erosion Susceptibility map was obtained with the intersection of this map with the land use capacity map. The microregion presents 12 soil units, among which the Luvisols are the most representative (27.03%). A large portion from the micro-region (74.74%) presents a class with high susceptibility to sheet water erosion. Those areas identified with a high erosion potential represent 52.45% of the total area. It is concluded that in the Jauru micro-region soils with high erosion potential predominate, with a light rolling to flat terrain. There are sections extremely susceptible to erosion with inadequate soil, classified as land use with medium conflictDescargas
