Abstract

Information about geology and geomorphological evolution of an area recognition parts of their spatial dynamics and climate evolution. The study aims at presenting the geological and geomorphological survey for terminal public fishing environmental licensing in Passo de Torres city, located in the coastal plain, southern state of Santa Catarina - SC, Brazil. This study was based on official work related to geology and geomorphology of the region, provided respectively by the Company of Mineral Resources Research (CPRM) and the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), associated with field surveys to corroborate with vectors forming the digital database. Six geomorphological units (plain lagoon, lagoon terrace, paleo dune, beach ridges, regressive lields dunes, Mampituba river paleochannel) and six geological units were identified (Holocene eolian deposits, Holocene beach deposits, Holocene alluvial deposits, Holocene peatland, Pleistocene beach deposits and eolian deposits, Serra Geral basement). Through the utilization of Remote Sensing techniques and data integration in GIS it was possible to identify and describe them in detail, representing them in maps at different scales (1:50,000 in city area and 1:2,000 in the fishing area) in order to assist the preparation of the Coastal Environmental Impact Report of the Public fishing terminal in Passo de Torres city, SC.
