Resumo

There is a great contrast between the north and south regions of and around Goiania county. Although belonging to the same morphoclimatic region known as the Cerrado, such regions have distinct physical aspects due to their diverse structural-lithologic-landscape-soilsvegetation, and land-use/occupation characteristics. The above-mentioned contrasts are clearly shown in the Ribeirao Anicuns watershed within which the larger portion of the Goiania metropolitan area lies. Two areas within this watershed have been chosen for study, the south shore (subbasin of the Salinas/Cavalo Morto creek), and the north shore (Mendanha Hill). The objective of this work is an analysis of the physical environment through its component factors, such as geology (lithostructure)-landscape-soils-vegetation-land use, and an understanding of their interaction in order to identify the morphopedologic compartments, their potentials and fragility which, in turn, make it evident why environmental impacts occur.
