PINHO, Giselle; MONTEIRO, Evandro  y  PINA, Sílvia. Urbanity in the forest: appropriation of the river by the occupation morphologies of the Amazon. GOT [online]. 2019, n.17, pp.201-227. ISSN 2182-1267.  https://doi.org/10.17127/got/2019.17.009.

In this paper, the applied morphological analysis determined how current agrarian reform settlements patterns evolved compared to during three other colonization periods. The analyzed plans are those implemented in the Eastern Amazon in four periods: Pombalino, Borracha, Militar, and Contemporary. The analysis was composed of seven morphological traits, namely: road network, plazas, road axis, the relation between roads and watercourses, land subdivisions, façade patterns, and setbacks. In addition to the morphological analysis, an analysis of the correlation between the functions of the watercourses and their relevance to the colonization/settlement plans also took place. In conclusion, compared to those old colonization plans, the current settlement projects have developed a more diverse and complex morphology. However, it remains little explored how the morphological structure of settlements can effectively incorporate the rivers through proper methods and mechanisms.
