BARBOSA, Tamires; FURRIER, Max  y  SOUZA, Alexandre. Anthropogeomorphology of cabedelo municipality - Paraíba state, Brazil. GOT [online]. 2018, n.13, pp.59-81. ISSN 2182-1267.  https://doi.org/10.17127/got/2018.13.003.

This work aims to characterize and to do a geomorphological mapping on the municipality of Cabedelo, focusing on anthropogenic forms, materials and processes. Urbanization on different landforms and particular geological units acquires specific characteristics, both physical and natural, as well as social. For this reason the geomorphological study in urban areas is of paramount importance for making decisions about landuse. For the development of the work, the following techniques were used as the main technical procedures: the vectorization of topographic charts in the 1: 25,000 scale, generating derived cartographic products on detailed scale and unpublished, as well as fieldwork for the collection of information that allowed mapping of the main anthropogenic landforms. The main anthropogenic forms mapped are the degradation areas due to mining, the technogenic deposits and the strong Paraíba river plain alteration by anthropic activities.

Palabras clave : Anthropogenic Geomorphology; Anthropic Relief; Anthropocene; Urbanization.
