SOIL-LANDSCAPE RELATIONSHIP AND ITS APPLICABILITY

A fundamental tool for understanding the characterization of the landscape

Abstract

This work aims to present the various applicability of the soil-landscape relationship, how it is worked and which soil analyzes are fundamental for the construction of understanding in search of answers about guiding questions raised by the researcher, among others. For this, a brief literary survey was carried out, collecting articles and research papers that present the soil-landscape relationship as the theme, identifying how it was used to discuss the guiding questions, as well as to refute or corroborate the hypotheses raised, in order to achieve the proposed objectives. With the bibliographic survey, which presents this mutual relationship as the theme, it will be possible to identify the varieties of use and application, observing the objectives of each research and how they were achieved through the use of the soil-landscape relationship. Many studies seek through the relationship between soils and the landscape answers about the characteristics of the place in which they are inserted, layout and composition of vegetation, properties in common with other similar areas, in addition to the evolutionary degree of surfaces and their characteristics. It is noted that the use of the mutual relationship between soils and the landscape was fundamental in several analyzes, such as characterization, description and evolution of the landscape, sustainable use of land, among others.
