Geoecological profile of the Serra do Gandarela National Park, Minas Gerais, Brazil

Abstract This paper presents a geosystemic study of the Serra do Gandarela National Park. This conservation unit is inserted in the context of the Quadrilátero Ferrífero, in Minas Gerais, where outcrops of Precambrian lithostratigraphic units of the Rio das Velhas and Minas Supergroups can be found. Thus, a geoecological profile was elaborated using a methodology of cartographic representation of a transect on the area of interest. This favours the elaboration of horizontal readings along with each represented element, as well as vertical readings, where correlations can be interpreted between the various elements present. The compartments of the morphostructural domains elaborated for the Belo Horizonte Southern Metropolitan Region Environmental Protection Area Project (Projeto APA Sul da Região Metropolitana de Belo Horizonte) were used as units of analysis for interpretation of the geoecological profile. The constructed geoecological profile enabled a more holistic understanding of the study area, which may contribute to the management of this conservation unit.
