Avaliação da dinâmica da paisagem da ilha do Mosqueiro, município de Belém, Pará.
The municipality of Belém, Pará, Brazil, has an area of about 505 km2 , of which 66% corresponds to the insular region, with the biggest, Mosqueiro Island, contributing 41% of total municipal area. This island presents a very heterogenous landscape in terms of the kind of occupation and economic activities developed due to different edaphic and socio-economic factors. In this study, to characterize the vegetation and land use, TM/Landsat images for 1990 and 1995 were used, with the support of field surveys. A change in 53% of the natural vegetation cover of the study area was observed, were being an average forest area loss of 1 km2 /yr over the period. The analyses permit the proposal to create conservations units and generate information on the dynamics of land use. Thus, the set of the results obtained are potentially important for planning the develoment of various activities on the island and the remote sensing and geoprocessing products and techniques, the tool responsible for a fast and efficient monitoring and control.
