Sustentabilidade da urbanização em áreas de restinga: uma proposta de avaliação pós-ocupação

Abstract

The objective of this work is, in one context of APO, propose actions in urban and landscape planning, checking the potential of the species that composes the vegetation of this area. Seeking to guide a possible landscape and environmental reconstitution, and the compatibleness between conservation areas and urban areas that will be used to ecotourism and scientific research. This work tries to follow a preliminary evaluation of the impact occasioned upon the shoal vegetation for the urbanization, where the vegetation is the impact marker. We are selected one area of the State of Rio de Janeiro - the shoal of Maricá, originally occupied for shoal vegetation, and today's in different stages of urban-ization and degradation. This area has the particularity to contain, and confined, a Conservation Unity: the Área de Proteção Ambiental Estadual da Restinga de Maricá, which afforded a comparison between the conservation unity and the urbanized areas. These evaluations intend compare the landscape potential of the vegetacional groups. Propose the conservation, recuperation and the urban and environmental planning that permit an exploitation of ecotourism, trade and residential activities. We hopes to contribute for a consolidation of landscape planning that considers the ecological, scientific and tourist potential of that area in subject.
