Resumo Situada no litoral sul de Santa Catarina, a planície de Campos Verdes caracteriza-se por feixes de cordões litorâneos, transversais à costa atual, separados entre si por truncamentos em padrão côncavo-convexo. Parte dos cordões superpõe-se por campos de paleodunas parabólicas orientadas para SW, atribuídos à geração eólica 3 (pós-máxima inundação holocênica). Limita-se a SW por uma faixa arenosa 1m mais alta, sem cordões aparentes, sobre a qual se assentam quatro sambaquis. A evolução da planície teve início a partir do ancoramento dos primeiros cordões sobre esta faixa, que corresponderia a um paleopontal formado segundo os modelos de circulação lagunar de Zenkovitch e que teria servido como "armadilha" para o acúmulo sedimentar. Esta hipótese é reforçada pelo mergulho para norte de refletores GPR, indicação de progradação nesse rumo. O padrão McLaren de variação granulométrica "mais fino, melhor selecionado e mais negativo" para norte pode ser atribuído a sucessivo retrabalhamento sedimentar no decorrer da progradação. Em perfil longitudinal aos cordões, a tendência de engrossamento, melhora de seleção e assimetria mais positiva para W refletiria o transporte por deriva litorânea. A variação de minerais pesados evidencia maior concentração de componentes instáveis, em detrimento dos ultraestáveis, nas porções norte e oeste da planície, com aumento da relação turmalina/zircão para NW. A queda de maturidade mineralógica no setor formado ao final da progradação pode ser atribuída a: 1. concentração gradual por seleção hidraúlica; 2. aumento de aporte sedimentar da frente deltaica do rio Tubarão; e 3. menor tempo de atuação da dissolução pós-deposicional nos cordões mais novos.
<p>A Soil Pipe System (SPS) were identified in Cand&#243;i region, located in the Paran&#225; state, southern Brazil. This region is constituted of intensive agriculture and cattle raising. SPS correspond to a structure associated to an erosive processes stage in downhill slope that tend to increase over time. The growth of the SPS results in instability to the terrain and the possibility of collapse, in this case the collapse can be accelerated by external factors, such as the overload of agricultural machinery and animals that circulate around the site, may leading to the machinery loss, animal&#8217;s death or even risk to worker safety. Frequently, the SPS are identified by surface methods that don&#8217;t provide parameters such as shape, distribution and depth. In this research, Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) and Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) were used to obtain a 3D characterization of the SPS identified in a farm in Cand&#243;i region to estimate the soil cover over the structure, the subsurface channels distribution and identify potential collapse risk portions. Seven ERT profiles using dipole-dipole array and twenty-one GPR profiles of 200 MHz antenna were acquired, covering an area of 900 m&#178;. The results were combined in a block diagram, which enabled: i) identify the subsurface channels distribution and direction, ii) estimate the average soil cover thickness, with 1.5 m over the whole structure. The possible connection between subsurface secondary and primary channels has also been suggested in results interpretation through of identification of a channel parallel to acquisition profiles direction. It was verified that in structure portions closer to the river next to the slope, the SPS ceiling has larger dimensions than the walls, suggesting areas with increased vertical tension, which was classified as potential collapse risk areas.</p>
