SUMMARY:

The occurrence of fires in natural environments is a preponderant factor for environmental degradation and loss of biodiversity. Conservation Units, on the other hand, act as remarkable tools for environmental protection/conservation in Brazil and in the world. However, even with the implementation of these units, the presence of degrading activities in protected territories still occurs in an expressive way, where in several cases natural resources are illegally exploited. The Environmental Protection Area (APA) of Chapada do Araripe has a notorious natural abundance in its territory, biotic and abiotic elements such as geological, geomorphological formations, geodiversity, great availability of water sources and variety of fauna and flora are constituents of this environment and that need of conservation actions given the nature of its management category and its wide area. In this perspective, this research aimed to analyze the transformations of the landscape caused by the fires in the APA of Chapada do Araripe between the years 1985 and 2020, as a way of contributing to the management plan of the referred UC. For this, the research is structured in three chapters, each chapter being developed from a specific objective, therefore, in the first chapter, an attempt was made to carry out a diagnosis of the APA, considering the socio-political context of its creation, the diversity of characteristics intrinsic and forms of current management, this finalized and presented here as a preliminary result of the research; the second chapter sought to verify, measure and problematize the areas burned in the APA in the period from 1985 to 2020; in the third, the identification of the main historical and current factors for the occurrence of fires in the APA, the transformations in the landscape and its socio-environmental remnants will be proposed. Thus, for the development of this work, bibliographical surveys were carried out by systematic review, documental, cartographic and iconographic survey of data on the APA of Chapada do Araripe. In view of this, as preliminary results of this research, it appears that the demands directed at expanding the management and inspection of the APA are fundamental for reducing the exploitation and degradation of natural resources in its territory, especially since it is a very extensive area that runs through three states. (CE, PE and PI) and which has a management with a low staff and inspection agents, making conservation and inspection actions of this environment difficult.
