RESUMO

The coast of Beberibe is known by its landscape diversity, mainly because of the cliffs with colored sands which form structures, such as the maze and MÃe DâÃgua Cave. The cliffs landscape, which is from Morro Branco Beach to the beginning of Fontes Beach, was decreed a Conservation Unit, the Natural Monument of Beberibe Cliffs, a category which integrates the Integral Protection Group, whose administration is done ruled by SEMACE. This dissertation is about an analysis carried out in the Natural Monument and in the geographical surroundings of the Monument, characterizing their natural aspects and different ways of use and occupation which make an influence in the study area. The research was developed in a systemic perspective, having as methodological basis the Geosystemic Theory. The cartographical techniques and the field research could make possible the final execution of this work. With the achieved results, it could be observed that after the creation of the Monument, there was not a meaningful decreasing of the environmental impacts on the cliffs, the monument has infrastructure which is demanded in the conservation units, and however it still needs some benefits on the area equipments. The other geoenvironmental units, such as the coastal sea, the range of the beach, dune fields, lacustrine systems, and coastal plains establish the local scenery and interact with the cliffs presented in the study area. Two maps of the geoenvironmental units were elaborated inside the scales 1:20.000 (2008 and 1967) , and from the interpretation of these maps, it was possible to evaluate the area evolution in the last forty years, realizing the transformation occurred in the study area dynamics. The surroundings of the Natural Monument has as many problems as the disorganized occupation, motivated by the tourism, not committed to the environmental conservation of the scenery. The delimitation of a possible buffer zone to the Natural Monument and an environmental zoning to the Conservation Unity. The creation of an APA to Fontes Beach was proposed, where a zoning was established to this area. Some improvement propositions for the Natural Monument were put into its structure and organization of the local tourism. We intend this paper might contribute to the environmental management process of the conservation unity , providing benefits not only to the Natural Monument, but also to the communities which live around that area.
