Estudo da erosão marinha com base no projeto de engorda das praias de barra de jangada, candeias e piedade no município de Jaboatão dos Guararapes em Pernambuco

Abstract

Coastal environments are subject to frequent and intense activities characterized over time by human activities and natural effects such as wind and sea wave energy (Muehe, 2001). In Brazil, the damage caused by marine erosion impacts not only the infrastructure of the coastal environment, but also commerce, tourism and leisure. Some of the coastal municipalities of Pernambuco, such as Jaboatão dos Guararapes, have undergone serious processes of marine erosion, so the Seashore Recovery Project was created with the aim of recovering the beaches in the municipality of Jaboatão dos Guararapes, Recife, Olinda and Paulista (ITEP, 2012). In this present research, a study of marine erosion was carried out based on the Seashore Recovery Project in the municipality of Jaboatão dos Guararapes, with the aim of analyzing its results. In this study, the methodological procedures adopted were based on documentary research and bibliographical research, in addition to field visits. In this way, geoprocessing and remote sensing techniques were used, which are technologies that allow the acquisition of images and the analysis of data related to phenomena that occur on the Earth's surface. As a result, it was possible to obtain a deeper understanding of tidal dynamics, confirming the accumulation of sediments on the beaches of Barra de Jangada, Candeias and Piedade, through the implementation of the seafront recovery project.
