Item Inventory and assessment of geological sites at Alto Ribeira Touristic State Park (São Paulo, Brazil): A contribution to its management(2024-07-15) Santos, Priscila L.A.; Brilha, JoséOver the past decade, various methodologies have been developed to systematize, discuss, and propose measures for protecting and sustainably managing geological heritage. The Alto Ribeira Touristic State Park is a crucial component of the most significant network of protected areas in the State of São Paulo, Brazil. It has international recognition for its speleological heritage, which underpins its status as a popular tourist destination. This intensive touristic use necessitates solid management plans that ensure sustainable tourism while preserving the karst features. Therefore, this work refined the inventory of geological sites and provided a quantitative assessment of their degradation risk and potential for use. Three geosites and 24 geodiversity sites were identified and assessed. The quantitative evaluation of these geological sites was conducted using the System for Registration and Quantification of Geosites and Geodiversity Sites (GEOSSIT), developed by the Geological Survey of Brazil. The application of this tool, designed for use in a vast and diverse country like Brazil, revealed the need for adaptations when applied to a smaller area such as Alto Ribeira Touristic State Park. This work helped establish management priorities for these sites and determine the most suitable uses for each geological site, providing valuable information for park managers. Such studies demonstrate that proper management of protected and conserved areas should always include geodiversity and geoconservation in their action plans.Item Quantification of Geodiversity Services in the São Francisco River Basin, Brazil (Minas Gerais portion), and Their Importance for the Management of Water Resources(2023) Santos, M.D.; de Azevedo Ruchkys, Ú; Pereira, E.OThe São Francisco River basin (SFRB) is the largest hydrographic basin located exclusively in Brazil. It covers an area of 636,920 km2, encompassing seven states. From its source, in the Serra da Canastra National Park in the state of Minas Gerais, the river flows for about 2700 km to its mouth, on the border of the states of Sergipe and Alagoas. It passes through regions rich in natural and cultural resources that are considered strategic for its development. Its management has been a challenge for the different agencies involved in the environmental sector. Thus, the objective of this study is to quantitatively map the geodiversity services, in addition to showing areas of density of these services, in the São Francisco River basin in Minas Gerais using planning units denominated Hydrographic Circumscriptions (CHs), proposed by the Instituto Mineiro de Gestão das Águas (Minas Gerais Institute for Water Management) (IGAM) as reference. The methods employed were quantification and spatialization of geodiversity services by CHs and comparison between them. The results indicate that the integrated assessment of geodiversity services proved to be satisfactory, enabling the identification of the most prominent services in each CH, in addition to making it possible to innovatively support the management of water resources in Brazil.
