Mapeamento De Habitats Marinhos Da Plataforma Continental Interna Da Praia De Iracema – Fortaleza – Ceará

Abstract: O presente trabalho tem como objetivo caracterizar os habitats marinhos da plataformacontinental interna da Praia de Iracema – Fortaleza/CE, a partir da análise integrada do substrato bentônico. Para isto, foi feita a batimetria de fundo, sedimentologia e a fauna e flora bentônica dos fragmentos de paisagens, com base em dados coletados em campo e analisados em laboratório. As análises granulométricas realizadas nas 20 amostras apontaram para uma distribuição das frações: cascalho, areia média, areia fina e mu… Show more

“…Despite its proximity to the coast, this region is subject to the most intense fluxes of sediment; the water is usually turbid for most of the year (Tabosa et al, 2007), hindering access to these shallow formations. Despite the widespread presence (Ximenes Neto et al, 2018;Pinheiro et al, 2019;Carneiro et al, 2022a,b) of these low-latitude habitats, the lack of scientific description leads to the neglect of these marine forests in conservation policies and environmental impact assessment (Rossi et al, 2022). Thus, this short communication aims to qualitatively characterize the key benthic groups (i.e., ascidians, cnidarians, and sponges) on turbid-zone MAFs in an urban area on the equatorial semiarid coast of the southwestern Atlantic.…”

“…In particular, the construction of port infrastructure since the mid-19th century has markedly affected the marine geomorphology and sediment dynamics in the region (Paula et al, 2013;Ximenes Neto et al, 2018), with generally negative impacts on the coastal seascape (Paula et al, 2013;. Nevertheless, rocky platforms with associated MAFs are still abundant and constitute an important feature of the seabed in the area (Ximenes Neto et al, 2018;Pinheiro et al, 2019). These reefs are likely formed by outcrops of ferruginous sandstones (Morais et al, 2009;Ximenes Neto et al, 2018; and remain fully submerged at shallow Marine animal forests in turbid-zone reefs according to the tide.…”
