Potenciais riscos da mineração a céu aberto na dinâmica dos corpos hídricos: recorte no manancial da bacia do Córrego da Lagoa, Ouvidor

Abstract

The present study examines the landscape and transformations in the Cerrado biome, focusing on the city of Ouvidor (GO) and the Lagoa Stream Watershed. It highlights the characteristics of the biome, its phytophysiognomies, and the impact of socioeconomic activities such as livestock farming, agriculture, and mining on landscape changes. The analysis emphasizes the relationship between anthropogenic activities, water resources, and regional transformations. It incorporates landscape concepts, stressing the unique heritage of the landscape and the responsibility for its sustainable use. The choice of Ouvidor is justified by the need for hydrological information to improve resource management. The methodology includes a literature review, document research, geoprocessing, and field analyses. This study aims to understand local dynamics and contribute to water resource management in the region.
